      A night to remember.

      "Our evening food tour round San Sebastian old town with Ibeth was definitely one for the memory bank! Ibeth has a chatty,buzzy personality and made the four of us feel as if we were all mates shooting the breeze on a pinxto bar crawl. We got a good selection of different pinxtos and accompanying drinks which helped us take the pulse of San Sebastian's food scene quickly. Without such an initiation by a local guide it can be a bit daunting. Definitely recommend Ibeth's tour and well worth it."

      Legendary local with superpower fast pass

      "If you are thinking of investing in a guide to help orientate or experience San Sebastian and its amazing pintxos scene - do not hesitate, book Ibeth immediately. Ibeth took all the stress away and made it look easy. Four of us sailed into the best Pintxos places, tasted amazing pintxos with the sensational matching wine she recommended. As a local, she had access to tables and seating and the ability to skip queues (including the delicious pintxos and Basque cheescake at La Vina🥰) - it felt really, really special. We arranged the pintxos tour for our 1st night and it helped orientate us, Ibeth gave lots of recommendations for other restaurants / pintox for the rest of our stay with help to book also. Thankyou Ibeth for your incredible hospitality. We totally loved it. It made our holiday 🙏 "

      Excellent

      "We had a fantastic tour with Usua in San Sebastián. She was incredibly knowledgeable, and we loved hearing about the city’s history and culture as we explored. She made the whole pintxos experience so easy, especially with my food allergies, going out of her way to make sure I had just as much delicious food to enjoy as everyone else. She also knew exactly where to go, taking us to some of the very best spots in town. A brilliant guide who made our visit all the more memorable. Highly recommend!"

      Fabulous evening

      "Melani met us with a huge smile and her warmth radiated for the rest of the evening. It was only me and my partner which was perfect for us. Malani shared her extensive local knowledge, listened and asked us questions and recommended pintxos she knew we'd like. The food and wine/cider were delicious and the evening went too fast! "
