Tasty way to learn more about San Sebastián

Great introduction to the city while trying some tasty pintxos! Kristina was a lovely guide- informative and kind. The best courses were the first (mushrooms with the most amazing sauce) and the last (a traditional Basque dessert).

Great memories with Christina in San Sebastiaan.

Our guide Christina was fabulous. She took us to places we wouldn't have found with out her. We were VERY well fed, and we got a really great variety of pinxos. And, she recommended some places (not on the tour) that had the best food items we were searching for, and she wasn't wrong with her suggestions. And, we were well fed, we certainly were not hungry after the tour! it was a really well organized tour, ending with desert on the coast with the sunset. We loved it, we'd highly recommend it.

Must do in San Sebastián

We had such a wonderful food tour with Ines! She was incredibly friendly, warm, and approachable, and made us feel comfortable right away. We especially loved that she took us to authentic, non-touristy spots that we probably never would have discovered on our own. It wasn’t just about the amazing food. Ines also taught us so much about Basque culture and helped us better understand San Sebastián through its food and traditions. Such a fun and memorable experience. Highly recommend!

Must do in San Sebastián

We had such a wonderful food tour with Ines! She was incredibly friendly, warm, and approachable, and the small, intimate group made the whole experience feel more like hanging out with friends than being on a tour. She took us to some fantastic authentic, non-touristy spots we never would have found on our own and introduced us to so much of the local Basque culture along the way. The food was amazing, but getting to experience San Sebastián through Ines made it even more special. Highly recommend!

The best way to taste San Sebastian

Delicious way to discover the gastronomic scene of San Sebastian. Each stop offers a pintxo accompanied by a drink, both carefully chosen to create an authentic experience. All this accompanied by a passionate guide who made the whole thing extremely interesting. Eskerrik asko Iri!!
