Walk. Eat. Repeat.
Today Pinchos are a culinary form famous all over the world, above all Pincho going is a social act on the move!
During our walking tour in the city centre we’ll walk the old streets where the infamous Running of the Bulls takes place and you’ll hear about the San Fermin festival’s origins, history and traditions. You’ll also discover the origins of Pamplona and the Camino de Santiago (or Saint James Way).
Afterwards we’ll hop from one bar to another and get to taste some of the best pincho’s in Pamplona.
DESCRIPTION
Pinchos, traditionally, were a slice of bread with some cheese or chorizo on top. Add an olive, anchovy, or pickled pepper for good measure, skewer the whole thing on a cocktail stick known as the ‘Gilda’, and you had your classic Pincho.
Now, they’ve evolved into sophisticated, creative and appetising bites of food you can enjoy in less than a few mouthfuls.
We’ll walk the old streets where the infamous Running of the Bulls takes place and you’ll hear about the San Fermin festival’s origins, history, and traditions. You’ll also discover the origins of Pamplona and the Camino de Santiago (or Saint James Way).
Afterwards, we’ll introduce you to the city’s finest pinchos. One of Pamplona’s longstanding traditions is the ‘chiquiteo’ where you hop from bar to bar with small drinks of wine accompanied by these tasty bite-sized pinchos. We’ll visit up to three different bars and try six different pinchos accompanied by carefully-matched wines. For many, this is an adequate lunch or dinner.
