This was a perfect way to start a short holiday in San Sebastián. From an easy meeting point, the tour meanders the beautiful streets of the old town, stopping at a well-curated set of bars that provided us with the perfect introduction to the pintxos culture. The pintxos were exquisite from mussels in a spiced tomato sauce, via unique patatas bravas, to wonderful squid ink croquettas ending with the “true Basque cheescake” (La Vina Cheesecake - look it up!). All were washed down with local cider (poured correctly from height to aerate), sparkling wine, rioja and a sherry. <br />The real joy was to do this while learning about the history of Donostia and the proud Basque culture. We had the most wonderful guide (Gorka) whose fluency, eloquence, knowledge and humour cemented the success of the tour. I am sure all the guides are great, but Gorka was outstanding.

The guide was fun, informative, knowledgeable and well paced. The selection of Pintxos restaurants was fantastic as well as the food, cider and wine variety. The tour was well organized and the food was excellent plentiful.

Devour tour with out unbelievable tour guide Amelia was incredible. Along with the history of the basque region she provided us with a delicious exposure to 8 pintxos and 4 different wine/ cider pairings. The group was small enough to provide the personal touch of answering questions and allowed for interaction with our guide. I would highly recommend the experience and the entry into old town San Sebastián ! The peak of our trip!

Know before you book
Is this a private tour?
Yes — this is a fully private tour your own guide and maximum 8 of your friends and family. The best of Barcelona’s food culture isn’t always easy to find. With a private guide, you get the flavors, the stories, and the places that locals love.
How much food and drink are included?
Plenty! With five stops featuring generous *pintxos* and drinks at each, this tour is a full meal and then some.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?
We can accommodate vegetarians and guests who prefer non-caffeinated drinks. Unfortunately, due to the nature of French pastries, this tour is not ideal for gluten- or dairy-free diets.
Why choose a private tour?
For the freedom to explore at your pace, deeper connection with your guide, and a seamless experience—no crowds, no waiting, just incredible food and stories.
What is the cancellation policy for private food tours?
Private food tours may be cancelled and refunded up to 7 days before the tour date. Thank you for understanding.
Can I customize the route or food stops on a private tour?
Our routes and tastings are thoughtfully planned in advance. Each stop has been chosen for its craft, character, and place in the neighborhood’s daily life. Keeping the route intact allows the experience to unfold smoothly without rushing or waiting. That way you can simply arrive and enjoy a table, seat, or bite waiting just for you. While the route itself stays the same, the rhythm is yours. Your guide adjusts the pace to suit your group.
