Eat Pintxos As A Local

About this activity

This isn’t a typical tourist tour created by an agency — it’s an experience led by a local guide who has spent years working in some of the city’s top restaurants and learning firsthand what makes Basque cuisine special. This is a gastronomic experience, thoughtfully designed to offer much more than a food tour. What makes it unique is that your local guide is a passionate history expert, bringing the destination to life through a blend of history, culture, and gastronomy. Every stop becomes an opportunity to discover the stories, traditions, and flavors that shape the local identity. It’s like experiencing two tours in one: a journey through the past and culture of the city, combined with an culinary adventure. Come curious, leave inspired, and discover the destination in a new way!

Each pintxo is selected according to your dietary preferences, allergies, or intolerances, and many of the specialties you'll taste are the kind that would be difficult to discover or order on your own.
