San Sebastián Pintxo Tour: Chef-Led Dinner Experience

Dive into San Sebastián’s culinary corazón on this unique walking food tour.

Catch the sunset while walking through the city’s famed Old Town and visit the world-famous bars for drinks and pintxos, AKA Basque tapas.

Everything’s included in this experience as we visit five different bars for small plates and the perfect pour at each. It’s a full meal and a dynamic night out of eating and drinking with the locals.

We know where to find the best pintxos in San Sebastián, so you’re in safe hands!

Along the route, we’ll show you the sights and tell you about the history and culture of the Basque Country, but the focus is definitely on FOOD and DRINK.

There’s no better way to learn why this is one of the world’s most delicious culinary capitals. And we make learning fun with a glass of wine in your hand!

By the end of this San Sebastián pintxo tour, you will know how to navigate the city and be confident enough to approach the bars on your own—we’re going to show you how it’s done.

Our routes and menus change daily, but we always offer a mix of the traditional and modern.

Expect to dine on anchovies, squid, bacalao, veal cheeks, and foie gras. Maybe we’ll nibble on a pig ear or two?

Got any special requests? Please let us know.

Thirsty? We are great at pairing the perfect pour with the perfect plate, from local ciders to white wine (txakoli), and reds from La Rioja and beyond. And there’s always beer and vermouth on tap.

Anyone can go to a Michelin-starred restaurant. Only real food lovers take a tour with Basque Bites.

If you can’t make the dinner tour but are in town earlier in the day, consider joining our Market Tour and Pintxo Lunch in San Sebastián.
