Basque Country Food & Culture Tours – Authentic Local Experiences

Discover the Basque Country through Food, Culture and Authentic Local Life

At IKusnahi Tours, we believe the best way to discover the Basque Country and the French Basque region is through its flavors, traditions, and people. Our gastronomic tours are more than just food experiences — they’re a deep dive into local life, where every bite tells a story and every stop connects you to the culture.

Day Tours from San Sebastian: Food, Wine & Local Life

Our San Sebastian pintxos tour is the perfect way to explore the vibrant culinary scene of the old town. As part of our curated day tours from San Sebastian, we also offer immersive wine and food experiences that take you beyond the city limits. Whether you're joining a coastal escape or heading into the hills for a San Sebastian winery tour, every trip is designed to give you a taste of the real Basque Country.

Taste, Learn and Live Like a Local

Join us for a unique food tour in San Sebastian or a cross-border cultural adventure: tasting fresh oysters and local cheeses paired with regional wines, enjoying freshly grilled fish straight from the sea, or learning the secrets behind traditional Basque cheese-making. Our Basque Cheese & Txakoli Wine tour reveals the artisanal side of rural gastronomy, while the San Sebastián Sightseeing & Pintxos tour blends culture and flavor in every bite.

Whether we’re guiding you through vibrant markets or sipping txakoli at a local winery, our passionate local guides will make you feel at home, offering close and personal experiences rooted in everyday Basque life. One of our most exclusive options is the Hondarribia Sightseeing & Gastronomic Society experience — a true insider’s evening with authentic food, stories, and culture.

San Sebastián Sightseeing & Pintxos

A journey through San Sebastián with an in-depth course on how to roll like a local in the beloved Basque bars.

San Sebastian Pintxo Tour

Our pintxo tour of the best bars in San Sebastián will help you learn the answer to this question.

Saveurs of the French Basque Country

We go to Gaul to have a few things explained to us about their national treasures.

Hondarribia and Gastronomic Society

We’ll visit Hondarribia, the town with two faces that looks out over the beaches and cliffs of neighboring France. It is advisable to go with a happy stomach because we will get to know (and enjoy) a gastronomic society from the inside.

Hondarribia and Pintxos

It would be a pity to go to Gipuzkoa and not get to know its most adorable town, Hondarribia.

Basque Cheese and Txakoli Wine

We’ll explain the reasons for this idyll and how it relates to the other great Basque passion: product-based cuisine.

Cliffs, Grilled Fish and Txakoli Wine

A walk through a fishing village, another walk along its cliffs and finally, barbecued fish caught a few hours ago.

Looking for something even more special?

For some, excellence is a getting a good table at one of San Sebastián’s Michelin-starred restaurants. We help them find it.

For others, excellence is a sandwich of the best bonito (tuna, fished only 50 miles from here) devoured in sweaty t-shirt, on a rocky peak in the Basque Country. We also help them find it (and we provide the sandwich).

Customize your tour. Wherever our clients choose, our job is to provide them with the best of it.
