Albaolabike (Self-guided tour)
If you like to explore cities at your own pace and in your own way, the self-guided tour offered by Go Local is a great way to get to know the Albaola the Sea Factory of the Basques.
You will learn about the influence that the sea has had on the society and economy of the Basque people, as well as its history, culture and illustrious seafarers. All this, thanks to a self-guided tour that will lead you from Donostia to the port of Pasaia, where you will find the Albaola Basque Sea Factory, a living museum where a Basque whaling ship is being built following the traditional techniques.
