Join a local culinary expert for an immersive pintxo-hopping experience through Donosti’s vibrant bar scene. With years of experience in fine dining and gastronomic research, I’ll guide you through what to eat, where to find it, how it’s made — and most importantly — what to drink with it. Expect thoughtful pairings, insights into culinary techniques, and behind-the-scenes stories about each dish and its origins.

As we explore the city’s most iconic and innovative pintxo bars, I’ll share how locals eat, why certain pairings matter, and how San Sebastián became a global gastronomic capital. From anchovies to aged cheeses, cider to txakoli — everything has a storey, and I love telling them.

You'll leave not only satisfied but inspired, with a curated list of recommendations for the rest of your stay — and a deeper understanding of the food culture that defines this city. Oh, and yes — we’ll also touch on some key historic moments that shaped the people and flavours of Donosti.
