Private pintxo tour with D.O. wines in San Sebastian

About this activity

Enjoy the ultimate gastronomic experience with our private pintxos tour in San Sebastian, a leisurely-paced route through the Old Town where each bar becomes a small feast-

Your private local guide, designs a pintxo route through traditional restaurants combining signature classics and eight contemporary bites, harmonized with a carefully selected tasting of four D.O. wines from different Spanish regions, one Basque cider to enhance aromas and flavors, and an optional traditional liqueur.

Between stops, you will discover squares steeped in centuries of history, iconic churches, and narrow streets pulsing with local life, while receiving anecdotes, cultural context, and personalised recommendations to continue your own feast after the tour.

This private experience brings together the best of a San Sebastian wine tour with the informal essence of pintxos: seasonal products, impeccable technique, and the bar-side atmosphere that makes the gastronomic capital of the Cantabrian Sea.
