Gabby was a very friendly and helpful guide. Our group was very diverse and Gabby did a great job keeping us all together and having a great time. We also learnt plenty about local history and the origins of the food we were eating.

It was a wonderful way to see San Sebastián and experience the pinxtos - we were there in August so it was very busy.

I want to give 10/5 stars but I can't. Gabby was the best tour guide ever for our experience in San Sebastian. She took us to local places (you can find bars every 2 feet) so that the experience was a bit more authentic and intentional. She could have just easily went to 4 different bars in the same block, but these are well thought out venues, each with a different vibe or specialty. Our group was really amazing, which really only enhanced the experience. I will be talking this experience up my entire life, that's for sure!
