Great tour guide, with food and drinks to match - perfect! - Fran was an awesome guide. He took us to some really great Pintxos bars and showed us a speciality dish that was unique to each place. Each wine was different with every dish, and were also incredible. On top of this, he was super accommodating with all of our questions and just so friendly, and great company to be with. Made for a really enjoyable afternoon and a great start to our trip here. Thanks again Fran - we loved it!

A Great Idea! - I was hesitant to do a pixto tour but my wife insisted, and I’m glad she did. It was fun meeting other people, and our guide - Francisco - was great. He knew where to get the best stuff we would’ve never found on our own. And the list of other places he provided gave us a roadmap to follow the next day and night. Highly recommend.

Perfect Pintxos - My first time in San Sebastian, I had to book a pintxos tour; and what a great idea it was. Francisco was out guide, and he was incredible. He was very hospitable and he was more like a friend than just your regular guide. He knows his stuff, and not just about pintxos. But the history and the area as well. It was a really enjoyable night and it was great getting to know the other people on the tour.
Highly recommend this tour, and a great value for money!

Best night out in San Sebastián! - My friend and I joined the Pinxtos/wine tour in San Sebastián and it was a great night out! Francisco was our guide, he was lively, fun and knowledgeable. He made the night so easy for all who attended, so you felt looked after. We enjoyed meeting the rest of the group too who were lots of fun.

Pintxo’s tour - Francisco went out of his way to make the Pintxo’s tour memorable for my friends and me. As well as ensuring we got great food , he gave us an overview of the history of the Basque region and explained about local customs. We really enjoyed the night and it was definitely the highlight of our stay.
