My name is Gontxu, I was born in Donostia-San Sebastian in 1977. After my studies I left the city to travel a bit the world, then, I was living in several countries like Ireland, France, Iran, Mexico or Benin. I learned a bit about other cultures and towns around the world. After my experiences abroad, I decided to come back to San Sebastian and settled down in my native city for guiding and showing to visitors the magic of the region. I love nature and on my free time I love to go into the ocean for surfing or swimming and into the mountains for climbing or trekking. I am also passionate of history and culture and a good food lover, always ready for good tasting meal :-) I am looking forward to meeting you and transmit you the magic of our region, let's do it combining 3 Basque passions: gastronomy, culture and nature, I am sure we are going to have a great time together. - Wide experience guiding tourists in San Sebastian. - Middle Mountain Guide degree. - Experience living in other countries such a France, Ireland, Iran, Mexico or Benin. - 5 years Business administration degree. I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences

Gontxu provided us the prefect walking tour to introduce us to his beloved hometown of Donostia. The stroll through Old Town, the hike along the bays and ocean, the beautiful nature, the discussion of local cuisine and wine - all wonderful. And the finale was our comida at Casa Camara. Langostinos and paella with Tzakoli, looking out over Pasaia. Spectacular. Highly...
We really enjoyed our walking tour with Gontxu. He is a friendly and knowledgeable ambassador for this lovely city. We learned a great deal about San Sebastian by walking the streets of the Old Town at a relaxing pace while listening to Gontxu's informative commentary. We also appreciated his meeting up with us at our hotel.

Although it rained during most of our tour, we had a delightful time learning about the history of San Sebastián and seeing the sights. Gontxu was flexible with our itinerary to account for our group’s needs and interests which was much appreciated. We highly recommend this tour.
