5This was a great...
This was a great experience. Esky was incredibly kind and knowledgeable and guided us on an interesting walking tour of the old town in San Sebastián. The pintxo stops were all delicious - we never would have found all of this on our own. One of us was vegetarian and she made accommodations and suggestions for us and we both enjoyed the tour immensely. I would highly recommend this tour!
5Outstanding. Very...
Outstanding. Very informative and loads of fun. Highly recommend this tour as an intro to this great city.
5Excellent history and food tour!
Our guide Eskerne was so friendly and knowledgeable! She gave us a lot of fun history as we saw the sites and she even took pictures for us. When we got to the food portion we were able to try 5 different pintxos and 5 drinks as we hopped from one restaurant/bar to the next. It was a great experience. Highly recommended!
5Our guide, Eske, was Exceptional!
My wife and I were the only ones on the tour and our guide, Eske, was perfect! She initially thought we would have more fun if we booked with more people, but the 3 of us just made the tour Super! At the end of the tour my wife and I invited Eske to Dallas where she would be welcomed in our home and we would be her guide.
5A Must-Do for any wine, food, and culture lover
I actually did this tour a while ago - November 2021, and I still think about it. I just recommended this tour to someone today and realized i never posted a public recommendation- so here it goes. The entire experience and Eskerne were wonderful. Her stories and relationships with the different proprietors make for a special experience. She knew the exact spots to go - and the best pintxos to order. She really had the inside scoop. And she followed up with a detailed email to recap our tour as well as additional recommendations. I will definitely do this tour again when im back in San Sebastián!
5Fun, interesting and delicious
Best outing! Our guide, Eskerne, was incredibly knowledgeable and fun. We learned so much about the history of the area and went to amazing pinxto spots. Highly recommend- best thing we did on our trip!

About San Sebastián
San Sebastián, or Donostia, is a Basque seaside city around a shell-shaped bay, with a golden beach, a hilltop fort and a pintxo scene known across Spain.
San Sebastián curves around La Concha Bay, a near-perfect shell-shaped inlet with a white-railed promenade and a sheltered city beach. Monte Urgull guards the east end with an old fort, and Monte Igueldo, at the west end, has a funicular and a viewpoint. The Parte Vieja, the old town, was rebuilt after the fire of 1813 and is packed with bars and a baroque basilica.
Top-ranked sights in San Sebastián: San Sebastian Old Town (Parte Vieja Donostiarra), La Concha Beach (Playa de la Concha), Constitution Square (Plaza de la Constitución).
