Pintxos and Wine Tour
44susano, 27-09-2022
Super fun pintxos and wine tour in Old Town. Lide was an excellent guide. She was not only knowledgeable about the pintxos options, but we also learned alot about the region and Basque culture. She guided us at each stop with pintxos and drink recommendations. The pintxos were unique and delicious. We never could have replicated the experience on our own. Highly recommend this tour!
Fantastic Experiences with Basque Tours

We had several tours with Basque Tours while in San Sebastian recently, including the Private Pintxos and Wine Tour in San Sebastian with Veronica. We also took the Basque Countryside and Coast Tour with Alvaro; and a tour of the French Basque area and of Lourdes with Andy. Each of the tours and experiences were fantastic. We had a wonderful time with each member of the Basque Tours team that we had the great pleasure to spend time with. They were each great guides and individuals, and made our time in San Sebastian very special, often going the extra mile to make our experience perfect!

We are already looking forward to another future opportunity to visit San Sebastián and will certainly call on Basque Tours again!
Pixtos and Cooking Class

We had two different times one with John (Pixtos) and cooking class with Jani. My wife and I have travelled all over the world. We have taken many tours but these two were the very best. Both people are charming, warm ,knowledgeable and extremely friendly. If you come to San Sebastián you must spend time with one or both. They are the very best. I cannot praise them enough. We will come back to San Sebastián just to see them.
Above and beyond

I am writing a review as an overall experience I have had with Basque tours. I have done Rioja wine tour, the San Sebastian Pintxo tour, as well as the Getaria wine tour where Basque tours takes you to a few towns and villages. I am going to copy paste this review to separate reviews on all the activities I did

Great experience. The Basque tours team are very knowledgeable about the city it’s history and it is clear when you’re out with them that they are known in Basque country. This gave us a feeling of safety and comfort as well as the added entertainment from having a knowledgeable source. We were treated like royalty wherever they took us. I asked for Jon to guide us on this tour however the team recommended Lide. Lide was amazing, embodied all the compliments I wrote above and more. We had a tour the next day and Lide was supposed to be our guide but they switched last minute to Jon due to my request initially. By that time I had taking a liking to Lide but was reminded during my our tour why I wanted Jon in the first place.

Guys I tell you; you can’t go wrong with Basque tours. This isn’t a cheesy tourist trap. Obviously everyone Basque tours introduces you to know you’re a tourist. The difference is that you do get exclusive access to the towns and villages in a way that seemed like you really need connections for. For example; Jon took us to a fishing town. There he showed us the aquariums where the restaurant we were going to have lunch in keeps their fish. Then he showed me the owner’s wine cellar (the restaurants in San Sebastian are you usually family owned and operated). This was a two storey room large with all kinds of pictures (shelves of wine obviously) from across the globe with pictures and memorabilia of the who’s who internationally. You don’t expect this kind of thing from these kind of tours, that personable super vip exclusive access all at once. I think that is a testament to the beauty of the Basque country and equally to the quality of the Basque tours team!
The Best of the Best!

Nothing short of spectacular…. Jani was an superb tour guide. Her knowledge and history of San Sebastián was extremely educational.

A wonderful gastronomic experience and way to understand the Basque culture and their farm to table way of life.

We highly recommend this wine and pinxtos tour — a memorable evening that ended at a local bar meeting wonderful people - Jani knows everyone - her energy is contagious … we miss her already.
