Wonderful tour

Ines was a fantastic guide, she was incredibly knowledgeable and shared great insights about the Basque culture and history. She gave us good recommendations to check out afterwards and was accommodating of my dietary needs which I really appreciated! We loved some of the stops that were different than a normal tour and really stood out. I highly recommend.

It's a good introduction...

It's a good introduction to local specialties such as foie gras and shark that I might not have tried on my own.

Great way to see the city and eat good food

Great evening in this food tour. Took us to places I’d have walked by, specifically the independent wine/beer store. Food was high quality as were the drink pairings. Overall a great tour with a great host.

Great Tour - Don't miss it

We had an amazing time. Ines was an excellent guide - she was very knowledgeable, and thoughtful about everyone's needs. We had great stops with wonderful food. And we left very full. We experienced so much more than food, learning about culture, language, history. Connecting with other visitors was a huge plus. Highly recommend the tour. It's the ideal way to experience the area. You'll be happy you did.
