If you are looking for Real, Local, Licensed and Professional Basque Guides in San Sebastian, let you know that you found it!! I was born in San Sebastian, Basque Country, I'm a person who loves travelling and sharing my experiences with people. I have visited over 60 countries and guided travellers, friends and family for long time. After travelling around the world in my last big trip, during 14 months, I'm even more prepared to guide you along the Basque Country and surroundings. Would you like to listen to some of the stories I have to share, while I show you the beautiful country where I live in is? I am a private local Basque guide and have a long experience guiding people along the Basque Country, over 15 years, in areas specially around San Sebastian, Bilbao, Pamplona, Vitoria as well as the French-Basque Country and the famous Rioja Wine region. As well as I travel abroad often, I love to work showing my city and surroundings, guiding people to the best places, not only to the touristic ones, but to the off-the-track ones too. Always adding some of my little stories and anecdotes of each place making the journey more enjoyable and unique. Living in a place with a food-culture like us, it adds an extra value to my tours, being a member of a Gastronomy Club(famous sociedad gastronómica) in San Sebastian as I am. This is only one of some of the tips I would offer you, considering that the only way to visit and access to them is being invited by a member! Great experience not to be missed!!

Overview of your San Sebastian tour
After so many years of being a private tour guide in San Sebastian, I know which ones are the best places to see and where to taste the best food. What my travellers enjoy most about this tour? The personal and private guided service in San Sebastian's hidden parts, visiting the most historical and the representative points in the Historic Centre of San Sebastian, but also the gems that nobody could find without a local. Along the old town you will be amazed with a dose of history, like the war in the year 1813 that made the city change completely, but even more to come when you will get the special treat: a pintxos tasting, finger food delicacies, visiting some of the nicest pintxos bars of the Old Quarter of San Sebastian. Unique experience that shouldn't be missed! Never heard of a pintxo? You'll be trying to re-create this Basque speciality at home after trying them here!
