A must - Jonathan was the perfect guide from the welcoming smile as he greeted everyone. We love food walking tours and this one did not disappoint. A perfect blend of food culture and local history. The food choices and wines were complimentary and gave us a great range of classic pintxos and more modern fusion. We highly recommend

Delicious tour! - We had an excellent pintxo tour in San Sebastián with Iker. He’s knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about Basque food culture. The bars were perfectly chosen, the pintxos were delicious, and the explanations about traditions and how locals eat made the experience feel truly authentic. Iker made the tour fun, personal, and easy to follow, and we left full, happy, and confident to explore pintxo bars on our own. Highly recommended!

A tasting tour worth taking! - Julen was prompt, fun, funny, and very knowledgeable about local history, traditions, and customs. He has forged good relationships with the propietors of the bars/restaurants we went to -- we were welcomed enthusiastically. We enjoyed our time with Julen and recommend his tours. He provided us with useful tips for our own pintxos explorations like the best and most interesting pintxos are the ones made to order from the menu board.

Pintxo according to Josu - Went to 5 places and had pintxo at each one. There were 3 of us so we usually got 3 different ones and shared. We also received the drink of our choice at each location? Josu taught us about pintxos and welcomed our questions. His English was quite good. His personal style was upbeat, thoughtful and encouraging. We would definitely go on another tour with him if we were here longer.

We had no idea that there... - We had no idea that there were two San Sebastian’s in Spain. We were on the Canary Islands in Spain. By the time we discovered our mistake, we were unable to cancel due to limited WiFi on board our ship
