We kick off at the iconic San Sebastian City Hall, soaking in killer views of La Concha beach—the beach of all beaches! Our walk through the city spills the beans on hidden gems, charming parks, and juicy stories you won’t find in any guidebook.

Then, we dive into the romantic zone, winding through cute streets until we hit the legendary old quarter of Donostia—the pintxos paradise. From La Bretxa market’s foodie haven to the Gothic vibes of San Vicente church, and the historic Constitution square, we’ve got it all covered.

Get ready for the good stuff in the second part of our tour – it’s a pintxo experience that will rock your taste buds with flavours, aromas, and downright deliciousness!

Immerse yourself in the market vibe, sampling the best— Iberico Ham, local cheese, olives, and premium olive oil. Chat with local vendors, the true champions of these delights.

Alright, pintxo lovers, get set for a journey through our bar-hopping world! As proud Basques, we match our top-notch pintxos with stellar drinks.

Join our Basque guru for an authentic local experience, hopping from one pintxo joint to the next, enjoying a drink at each stop like a seasoned pro. And here’s the kicker: 5 delectable pintxos paired with 5 premium drinks (Rioja wine, Txakoli, cider, water, or soda) at 4 great “pintxo temples.”

Dive into Basque traditions! Discover vibrant festivals, uncover the secrets of exclusive men’s cooking clubs, and perhaps even learn a few words in our ancient and vibrant language, Euskara. Brace yourself for a cultural adventure unlike any other!

We spent a wonderful time, wandering the streets of San Sebastián, stopping off at a number of Pintxos bars, sampling some amazing food and drinks. Our tour guide, Jon, provided insights into each dish, some of the history of Basque food culture and lots of interesting suggestions about the other bars and shops we passed. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting this amazing city.

Brilliant. Arantxa was an amazing guide who is clearly very passionate and knowledgeable about the city she calls home. She took time to explain things and was positive and engaging the whole tour. The places she took us were authentic and not too busy and the food and wine were great. I would definitely recommend this tour.

This was an excellent Pintxo Tour with an amazing knowledgeable guide Telmo who was full of passion for his food and wine which helped create great energy. I hesitated before booking because of the cost, but felt like we got full value for money, learnt a lot and thoroughly enjoyed the food, company and area. It was fascinating and a great night. We also enjoyed the local cider pouring lessons!!

We enjoyed the tour with Telma. He was very knowledgable and gave us the history of the place & food/drinks in the area. Definitely recommend to be done when in San Sebastián with this company.

Had a lovely time touring the market and a handful of pintxos spots. Telmo was an excellent guide and made the experience very fun! Would recommend to those in search of a variety of local food and drinks to sample, especially if you are hesitant to dive right into the pintxos scene on your own. Really loved it!

We had a wonderful time with Telmo. My husband and I took our two sons and their girlfriends and he was able to connect with all of us and make accommodations for some food restrictions. He was knowledgeable and personable and fun and we highly recommend this tour and this company. We were contacted in advance and sent pictures of our guide and the meeting place. Very professional.
