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 70 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!!

Fabulous day touring from Bilbao to San Sebastián with Iker. He picked four of us up with our luggage in his mini van and we set off to explore the coastline. Fabulous scenery, time to stop for a drink and snack, a treat from Iker which we appreciated. We walked around pretty villages and just took our time, nothing was rushed. He loves his Basque Country home and it certainly showed. Thank you Iker, 100% professional and 100% recommend.
Our day with Iker was incredible. He tailored the experience to our interests, and managed to pack in a ton of sights and activities, while never making us feel rushed—which felt like magic. His Basque heritage and deep knowledge of history and culture brought the region to life, and we loved hearing about the layered stories of each place throughout time. We only had a 1 day tour, but I would happily spend a week with Iker listening to his stories, seeing the Basque countryside through his eyes, and spending time with him. Can’t recommend him highly enough!
amazing tour and guide. We able to see and experience things with Iker that we never would have discovered on our own. Would highly recommend him as a guide and would use him again!
No need to think twice, Iker is wonderful in every aspect
Iker was fantastic. He took us all over the Basque Country and shared so much information. I'm really glad we chose to book a tour with him. He also took us to a lunch that we will never forget. We'll worth it.
Iker was a wonderful guide and really listened to what we would like to see and customized the tour accordingly. We booked a second day with him and went to Pamplona with some nice stops along the way. We were extremely please with the tours and recommend him highly. San Sebastian was beautiful and we can't wait until we get another chance to visit.
