About this tour
Spend three days in San Sebastián, the Basque Country's culinary capital, with two nights' accommodation and guided exploration of this coastal city. You'll taste your way through the pintxos scene with a dedicated food tour covering eight bites and paired drinks, visit the city's aquarium, and wake to daily breakfasts. A dossier, map and printed guides let you navigate the old quarter's narrow streets at your own speed, balancing structured experiences with unscheduled wandering.
Highlights
- Pintxos crawl: eight Basque bites plus four regional drinks
- Two-night stay with breakfast and one lunch included
- Self-guided exploration of the historic centre
- San Sebastián Aquarium visit
- Txakoli wine tasting alongside local ciders
- Complete city dossier and navigation maps supplied
What to expect
Your first day arrives with a printed dossier in hand—maps, venue suggestions, insider tips. You'll have time to settle in, then join the pintxos tour where a local guide moves between neighbourhood bars, each stop revealing a different Basque snack paired with txakoli, crianza or local beer. The pace is leisurely; these aren't rushed tastings but proper eating. Days two and three split between structured activities—the aquarium, perhaps—and blank hours to wander back streets, revisit favourite pintxos bars, or sit in a plaza with coffee. Breakfasts come at your accommodation; one lunch is provided.
Good to know
Minimum two people per booking; solo travellers can request an individual supplement. Prams and strollers are fine. Public transport connects most areas. The old town is hilly and pedestrianised, so comfortable shoes matter. Gratuities and additional meals aren't included.
