We completed the tapas cooking course and absolutely loved it! The chefs are world class and food was amazing quality. The right balance of cooking and eating and was a great way to sample the local cuisine in a very professional setting. Highly recommend.

I can’t recommend this tour and our guide Almudena enough. Pinxos are wonderful Tapas of the Basque region and Almudena is a local and knows everything and everyone! She is knows all the best places and just what to order. She enthusiastically shares her knowledge of San Sebastán and it’s wonderful cuisine and local wines.

Thank you for a fabulous pinxtos (tapas) tour of San Sebastián. You tailored it to our likes and tastes and everything had been organised so we didn’t wait around unnecessarily. Thoroughly recommend

We had the perfect introduction to San Sebastián, a pintxos tour with Juan of Mimo. We learned about Basque culture, style of cooking, the role of pintxos and typical wines....all while walking around town and soaking up the local atmosphere. Juan was knowledgable, thoughtful, and delighted to share his passion about Basque food and wine with us. We exited, not only prepared to create our own pintxos tour, but to explore San Sebastián on a deeper level. Gracias Juan and Mimo, we will return.

Excellent introduction to Pinxtos (like tapas) and Basque culture. 6 bars/restaurants with wine pairings and Great explanations of food, wine and Basque culture. Don’t be put off by the price it is worth it.
