This was our second visit to beautiful San Sebastián and I really wish that we had booked this tour the first time. Usua, who is a charming guide, was able to introduce us to the less touristy side of the pintxos experience and , as a result, our pintxos game has greatly improved! Usua is very knowledgeable about the culture and history of the area and answered all our questions. This is a tour worth booking.Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic time on the food tour with our amazing guide Usua. She is so knowledgable and shared the history of San Sebastián and the Basque culture. She brought us to the market in the Old Town where we sampled different types of jambon along with the local cheese. Then she took us to fantastic pinxto bars to try the specialities of the house along with the local cider and txakoli wine. Usua explained how the wine is produced and recommmded several other bars and restaurants in San Sebastián and the local region. We would definitely recommend a food tour with Usua who brought us places we would not have found ourselves. She is an excellent ambassador for San Sebastián!Brilliant food tour of San Sebastián

The food tour was wonderful. Usually was very responsive to messages before the tour and was able to accommodate our dietary preferences. Usually was amazingly knowledgeable and took us to some fantastic local spots and gave us some really good recommendations and guidance for the rest of our trip. Perfect

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. A great way to spend a few hours!

We went on a tour in San Sebastian last Sunday. We met Usha at the Aquarium. She was nice, we started the tour. She stopped at some sites with us. Then she gave us a plan where we can eat Pinxtos somewhere in the city and said good bye quite quickly. In the voucher the tour was planned for 3 hours, we had 2.15 hours. There was a drink or snack in the voucher, we got a plan. A refund was not payed, but an invitation for a drink at a time we were already far away from San Sebastian.Betrayed

More about me

San Sebastian is my city, I grew up among its streets, where all my family comes from.

Like the ancient sailors of its shores, my origin has pushed me to get to know the world and to intertwine with its cultures, its people and the nature that surrounds us.

After 12 years of travelling, which for my art studies made me spend a lot of time in Italy (Florence, Sicily, Rome), I have returned to Porto and feel it is time to spread the hidden gems the city has to offer, taking an accessible walk among nature, sports and gastronomy.
