Juan is the absolute BEST guide in San Sebastián! My husband and I enjoyed an evening pintxos tour with Juan as our guide. Upon meeting him, we knew we were in for a treat. He is inviting and low key, but also full of passion about his city and region. He is incredibly knowledgeable about all things food and wine and has a gift for communicating in an effortless way. As a native to the area, Juan took us to all the top notch spots. Each provided a unique bite and ambiance. We learned so much about the city and the Basque culture as we weaved through the streets of Old Town. We didn't want our tour to end.
The following day Juan provided us with a comprehensive list of all the pintxo bars we visited and the items we tried. He also gave us amazing recommendations on restaurants and activities to do during our stay.
We still talk about our San Sebastián experience with friends & family. It was a dream. Juan will give you an experience you will never forget. Do yourself a favor and book any of his available tours. He is truly a gem in San Sebastián!
