Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Usua is a great local guide, knowledgeable and friendly. We were taken to some wonderful bars and had delicious local plates and drinks. We learnt a lot about the food culture as well as local history. Highly recommended."
"The hike was very good. Usua was very friendly and knowledgeable about the Basque region and Spain. She’s very easy to talk to. The hike is well maintained and not too challenging but long enough to be worthwhile. "
"Nathanja gave us the best guided tour by making sure to bring the city to life and share her special places and tastes of the city far above aand beyond what might be expected. She took extra time to share the places you might necer see otherwise and gave us pacing that matched our energy to make this a tour to remember. I highly recommend her to anyone visiting!"
"Nathanja kindly curated my tour of San Sebastián to my interests. She is knowledgable of the city with fun facts and great places to point out along the way. Highly recommend investing the time with her to experience a more local viewpoint. "
"Usua had a change in her schedule so her colleague Fran(Francisco) was our tour guide. We were running late due to parking and he was very flexible/accommodating with us. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and easy to talk with/hang out with. Took us to several great pinxto spots, taught us about the history, culture, and food of San Sebastian. Highly recommend!"
"Nathanja was our guide and has extensive experience with and insight into the city highlights. She is very personable and easily adapted to our having a 2 year old who couldn't always cooperate (e.g. Hiking up to the chapel). She also had great recs re:food and other activities in and around the city. She also speaks at least four languages. Highly recommend for other travelers! "
"Usua was an enthusiastic and informative guide who lives in the Old Town and continually visits different pintxo bars to stay updated and to remain adaptable to visitors' tastes, dietary restrictions, crowd situations, and more. She was very flexible with us, particularly since we had our 2 year old with us, and ensured we had a great time. Thank you, Usua! "
"Usua was an excellent guide. We got to experience the traditional pinxos bars and ate some delicious food. Her best advice was “don’t eat anywhere shiny, go in the brown bars instead “ . That was so true! The brown bars were full of locals and the pinxtos were authentic and delicious. Highly recommend 😄"
"Georgia is a Greek diamond found in the extortionate city of San Sebastián. By all means you can do a Pintxos tour yourself but frankly you need to do both. Firstly with Georgia to understand how it all works, to take you to the primo places and then explore yourself. Georgia has a winning smile that will brighten up any day. Great fun."
"Usua was an absolute gem of a guide! Our first day in Donostia was made even more special thanks to her time with us. We learned so much about the fascinating Basque people and their rich culture. It was an amazing way to immerse ourselves in the city and get a feel for its unique vibe. We’d definitely recommend Usua to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience in San Sebastian."
