San Sebastián Private Family Food Tour
About this activity
A private family food tour through San Sebastián's Old Town, with churros, a market tasting, pintxos, and games for the kids, all paced around your family.
Full description
Most food tours move at an adult's pace and hope kids keep up. This private tour is built the other way around: churros fresh from the fryer, a ham and cheese tasting at a working local market, and pintxos at an Old Town bar, all paced around your own kids. An Adventure Booklet turns the walk into a treasure hunt, and a stop at a traditional pastry/candy shop closes out the morning. Built for families who want San Sebastián's food culture without rushing anyone.
Stop At: Local Churrería
Description: Begin with the delicious taste of churros, and watch the dough hit hot oil before it's dusted with sugar. Dunk each piece into thick hot chocolate while your guide gets to know your family and the day ahead.
Admission: Included
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: San Sebastián Old Town (Parte Vieja)
