Five stars isn’t enough: Discover San Sebastián is simply amazing! - From start to finish, our experience with Discover San Sebastián was simply gorgeous. What sets this tour apart is the personal touch. Eskerne (Esky) made the experience feel as it was curated just for us – relaxed, intimate, and full of genuine connection.
We explored the city’s hidden corners, soaked up its fascinating history, and got an authentic taste of local life. And the food – wow! Every pintxo bar Esky took us to was better than the last.
Highly recommended for anyone who wants more than just the typical sightseeing trip. This was the highlight of our time in the Basque region. Esky, we can’t wait to come back and do it all again!

Don't pinch the euros and book with Esky - We had one night in San Sebastian so we could not afford to search and wander for the right pintxos. So we booked with Esky. Esky was a fantastic tour guide tailoring our pintxos stops based on our food preferences. We has a great time with the other couple who participated on the tour with us. My teenage son got to experience new foods and learned how to pour a sidra inro a glass. Esky encouraged sharing and tasting while making sure the kitchen delivered the best pintxos. Nothing was served pre- made. It was either hot and fresh or it was not accepted by Esky. Sure you can good with a cheaper tour and go to all the tourist favorites but I feel booking with a local who will provide a more personal experience is worth the price

Best of the Best - What a wonderful experience while in San Sebastian. The guide was wonderful, very charming, kind, sweet, and funny. Everyone in the group had a great time and even after the event ended weve emailed her a few times for recommendations and she has immediately responded. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour!

Great thing to do your first night in San Sebastián - Esky is great at what she does. She made everyone feel comfortable and was quick to make sure we knew each other’s names. We tasted a variety of pintxos and Spanish beverages. Esky gives you a list of places she recommends so it is a good idea to do it on your first night in San Sebastián. Lots of fun.

Highlight of our Trip to San Sebastián - This Tour was the Highlight of our trip to San Sebastián. Eske was so friendly and informative and we had such a good time on this tour.
We visited 5 different venues and Eske tailored both the venues and the pintxos to suit everyone’s tastes and dietary requirements.
We tried local sparkling Txakoli wine, cider, beers and red and white wine.
The pintxos were delicious and we loved every minute of this tour.
Doing this tour at the start of your trip will enhance your whole experience of San Sebastián! ⭐️🫶⭐️

Amazing, all around! - The most amazing time.
The tapas experience for someone who doesn't speak Spanish was very intimidating. So many restaurants, so many food options. Esky took away all the guessing, took us to the best spots, knew the best items so we could still have the experience without the drama. Being in the business over 10 yrs, she's built up great relationships with the owners and gets vip treatment. Some even make special items just for her.
Bonus: she emails you a recap of the night with even more recommendations to include shopping. The next day for lunch, we ate at a recommendation and it was fabulous. For dinner, tried another random restaurant, not so good. Esky knows the good spots !
Also loved having history part of the tour. Her English is perfect and she's so delightful.
So so glad we booked the tour. Bit of a splurge but definitely worth it.
