Your experience begins near the legendary Hotel María Cristina, an icon of San Sebastián's elegance. From there, we take you somewhere few visitors ever get to enter: an authentic Basque Sociedad Gastronómica. For generations these private culinary clubs have been at the heart of Basque life—places where friends and families gather to cook, tell stories, celebrate and pass down recipes. Stepping inside one offers a rare glimpse into the soul of Basque culture, well beyond anything a restaurant can show you. Afterwards, we continue on foot through the city's most atmospheric streets, including the Old Town, choosing our stops based on what's exceptional that day, the season, and where locals actually eat—not a fixed checklist. Along the way you'll taste a curated mix of classic and contemporary pintxos, each one paired with the story behind its ingredients, its chef, or the neighbourhood it comes from. We'll explain how pintxos evolved, why certain flavours belong together, and how to order like a local. Expect insider recommendations and hidden gems you'd rarely find on your own. There's no rushing from bar to bar—just good food, good stories, and the Basque way of slowing down to gather and connect. Led by Joris, a chef, and Anouck, a cookbook writer, this is more than a food tour: it's an invitation into the everyday culture and flavours that make San Sebastián unforgettable.

Making Memories...

We booked this Pintxo Tour once again as a way to show our friends around the pintxo culture here in San Sebastian and to taste some seasonal dishes. Anouck and Joris are always such perfect Ambassadors to San Sebastian that we let them show our friends around again and again. This night was no exception and a perfect evening. With the news of stormy weather moving in, they quickly changed our meeting plan to keep us out of the rain as long as possible but still get to enjoy the walks thru the city from one tasty treat to another. They are knowledgeable and were able to customize our stops based on the diet restrictions of one of our guests. All this merged together made for a fun evening full of culinary delights, laughter, sightseeing, a bit of history, and most of all memories with friends that will last a lifetime! Highly recommended!
