"Usua is really knowledgeable about the history and art and culture of the region, and she took us to try some fantastic pintxos. It was a really lovely afternoon - highly recommend!"
"Georgia took our family of 3 on a 2 hour pinxtos tour of old town San Sebastián
My sons are aged 12 and 16
Prior to the trip, she was helpful with tailoring a food tour to us, our experience and preferences.
On the day, Georgia was friendly, enthusiastic and joyful. She took us to quite a few pinxtos bars. We had been in San Sebastián for about 3 days prior, and despite having already experienced the local fare on our own, she ensured we tried a wide range of food almost all of which were new to us. She also paid attention to experiences we had done and shared with her, and adjusted her food orders to optimise our experience.
She gave us interesting insights into local life and culture as well.
All in all, a wonderful 2 hours with a resident that added colour and perspective to our trip.
Highly recommended "

A great way to spend a few hours!
"We had a lovely few hours with Usua who was able to introduce my wife and I to not only the cuisine of San Sebastien but the culture and history.
The food and drink we were introduced to were excellent and we would not have know about them or what to ask for without Usua's advice. "

Great host, tasty tour + drinks.
"Booking Georgia was a highlight of our short time in town. We ate well on our first night but didn’t speak enough Spanish or Basque or knowledge of etiquette to explore too many menus/bars.
Georgia SOLVED ALL THIS and was SUPER accommodating and took us on a great low key Pintxos tour of San Sebastián on Saturday afternoon.
We took in 5 savoury stops and a final stop for cheesecake with a drink at each stop. The food and drinks were great and Georgia was knowledgeable, easy going and great fun.
Reviewers: 4 x mid 30 yr olds from GBR, USA and Australia. One vegetarian and non drinker who was well catered for! "

A great way to learn about the culture
"Georgia was a great host! We are from the US and the language barrier and culture was a shock at first. Georgia was knowledgeable and shared her favorite pintxos bars with us. This made for a very pleasant night and set us up well for the rest of our trip! "

The Perfect Pintxos Introduction
"My family and I booked a tour with Georgia for our first night in San Sebastián. During two hours in the Old Town, Georgia not only took us to all of the right bars, but also introduced to the food and drink that each bar is famous for. As well as being enjoyable in it’s own right, the tour helped our orientation of the the maze like city, and improved our experience for the remainder of our trip.
Georgia was excellent, as well as being personable and humorous. I would highly recommend a tour with her."
