San Sebastian Market Visit and Cooking Class

This experience combines the energy of San Sebastián’s local market culture with the warmth of a hands-on cooking session. Instead of a long, formal culinary program, this class focuses on a relaxed, interactive format where travelers can immerse themselves in Basque gastronomy in a dynamic and approachable way. Whether you have never cooked before or you are already passionate about food, this experience is designed to be enjoyable and engaging for all levels. We cook in a professional, purpose-designed culinary space, ensuring comfort, personal workspace, and high-quality seasonal ingredients throughout the session. The market visit adds a real local dimension to the experience, offering insight into seasonal ingredients and everyday food traditions before transforming them into authentic dishes you’ll prepare yourself. It’s the perfect balance between cultural discovery, practical cooking, and shared enjoyment around the table.

Your experience begins with a guided visit to one of San Sebastián’s traditional markets, where you’ll discover seasonal Basque ingredients and learn how locals shop for fresh produce, seafood, and regional specialties. After exploring the market, you’ll head to our cooking space to begin a hands-on culinary experience. Working in a small group alongside a local cook, you’ll prepare a selection of classic Basque dishes using the ingredients inspired by the market visit. Throughout the class, you’ll learn practical techniques and tips that you can recreate at home. At the end of the session, you’ll sit down together to enjoy the dishes you’ve prepared, accompanied by local drinks.
