I highly recommend this tour for the very first day you arrive in San Sebastian! Jon and Telmo were amazing guides taking us to the best pintxos spots in Old Town. From the food, wine and knowledge of the history of the city and the food, it was a tremendous experience with a great group of people. After the tour I had all the knowledge I needed to continue to explore the culinary delights of San Sebastian thanks to Jon's tour!

Arantxa was the perfect tour guide. Her enthusiasm and love of the Basque food and culture was contagious. We learned so much about the Basque region and the evolution of the pintxo. The progression from the olives, Iberian ham, and cheese in the marketplace to the various other pintxos was wonderful. There was a wide variety of samplings as well. Ending up with Basque cheesecake and sherry was a great finale! I highly recommend this tour!

Best way to get a large variety of foods and sample many items, all the while learning how to navigate the process of ordering, drinking and eating to most enhance the experience. The small restaurants were not too busy the night of the tour, but they get very busy in summer and if you don’t know how to order or what to order you will probably get ignored. This tour was a great introduction to the food by a knowledgeable local guide.

Jon’s private tour of San Sebastián and our pintxo and wine tasting was simply outstanding. I highly recommend booking this tour. It was the perfect introduction to the Basque region prior to a five day hiking trip. Jon is delightful and knowledgeable about both history and food/wine! Do not miss this tour!
