The only CHEF-LED pintxo tour in San Sebastián!

Everything's included on this four-hour walking tour of San Sebastián's Old Town--the birthplace of Basque tapas AKA pintxos. We will visit 5 different bars for small plates and the perfect pour at each--it's a full meal and the best night out you've had in ages!

From the modern to the traditional, from braised veal cheeks to seared squid, local cider to txakoli white wines. Maybe we'll nibble on a crispy pig ear and wash it down with a Crianza from La Rioja?

Dive into the culinary corazón of the Basque Country on this one of a kind culinary tour!

Amazing start to our San Sebastián stay!

We had a great evening. Gregory was a delight. We learned a lot about the pintxos customs and how to feel like a pro when ordering. We would highly recommend that you book this early in your San Sebastián stay as Gregory provides you with great references for future meals.

Best food tour we’ve ever been on

What else can I say but wow. We were surprised that we were the only two people on the tour. Eli did not hold back and showed us a wonderful, personalized experience. Her knowledge of the area, history, and culture of San Sebastián was informative and engaging. The food was delicious, service exceptional, and met with a personal touch that sealed the deal. She knew all the tricks to find us tables, get us pinxtos quickly, and tailor the tour to our taste buds. Easily one of the top 2 food tours we’ve ever been on. Scary Costco!

Highlight of our trip!

If you are looking for the perfect mix of incredible food, rich history, and great laughs, do yourself a favor and book a tour with Gregory. He didn’t just lead us from one plate to the next; he kicked things off with a fantastic historical overview of San Sebastián and Basque culture that gave us a whole new appreciation for the region. The food itself was absolutely exceptional—every single bite was a hit. Beyond his incredible knowledge, Gregory is genuinely hilarious and engaging, making the entire experience feel like hanging out with an old friend who happens to know all the best spots in town. We had an excellent time from start to finish. Thank you, Gregory, for an unforgettable evening!

Great night out

Our guide Gregory was really great. Very fun evening with him. Very knowledgeable about history of San Sabastian as well as Which local pintxos bars to go to and what to order at each one. A very engaging guy who made it a very fun night.

A perfect night

Fantastic experience from beginning to end. Gregory was an amazing host in every regard. A great curator of food (He actually trained at Le Cordon Bleu), very considerate of our likes or dislikes and ordering the perfect combinations of food and drink and great portions. The sampling of Pinxtos bars he took us to were top notch and I have returned to a few I enjoyed them so much. A very affable fellow, I appreciated his wit, sense of humor, and he supplied alot of great social commentary and a wealth of knowledge on the history of San Sebastian. After the tour he also reached out with the list of places visited and also several lists of new recommendations (several which I'll be trying in upcoming days). Cannot recommend enough and would suggest booking on first night or two in San Sebastian as it completely changed and molded my perception of the food culture and changed my plans for upcoming restaurant reservations. If you give him a chance you wont be disappointed Aupa Hi!!

What a great way to spend a day in the amazing city!

We were recommended by our pintxo guide in San Bilbao, and what a great recommendation it was! We spent a fab day with Gregory and loved every minute of it. So knowledgeable, enthusiastic and his love of San Sebastián, food and wine as well as its people shone through. We learnt so much, and he coped admirably well with me being ‘non-fishy’! Thoroughly recommended, small group sizes, we were a two and it worked really well in the small busy bars. Not a cheap day out, but if you want a personalised experience as a couple or small group it is worth the spend, we will always have great memories of our time in this fab city. Thank you so much Gregory. Kay & MIke

Perfect tour and guide

Listen, book Gregory ASAP if you’re planning a trip to San Sebastián! This tour was awesome for the following reasons: - It was intimate, we weren’t elbowing through 15 people to hear Gregory. It was just the 4 of us - He gave us extensive knowledge about the region and culture while walking and pointing out sites - The food he selected was AMAZING, things we likely wouldn’t have found without him - We had fun learning about wine - He was personable, we felt like we’ve known him forever and were enjoying meals with a friend - The locals clearly love him, this obviously means he’s a cool dude - Gregory kept us laughing - His mustache rocked Thank you, G! From your new favorite Okies
