I am a historian and published author with a passion for making history and culture a fun and relatable journey for everyone. My academic investigations engage with the impact of popular culture on our society. I also advocate for the control and ownership the public has over historical narratives and our engagement with the past away from the watchful academic eye. I am a native-born explorer of the world. I am very privileged because I come from a beautiful part of the world called Cantabria (Spain) which is overlooked yet full of fascinating history. My first trip abroad was at the early age of 2. My family took me to Paris on the train and I had a blast! I am incredibly lucky to have a family with a passion for having adventures and discovering new exciting places, so I just embraced it with my whole being. I love jumping on a plane and going somewhere new, in the same way, that I enjoy a proper road trip somewhere local to rediscover things that perhaps I took for granted. There is something special and worth exploring everywhere, you just need to look out for it. My passion for tour guiding started in 2010 in Winchester (UK) where I learned the ropes to being a cathedral tower tour guide. Operating at other local sites, I developed my knowledge of the touring industry by engaging with tour operators, cruise ships, summer schools, and the general public. With my academic knowledge of history and culture and my love for traveling, I have taken my tour guiding passion beyond the UK, taking individuals and small groups around Europe, going as far as organising travel, bookings, and selecting the best experiences for the trip and the individual needs. I am a natural storyteller and I want everyone to join in my tours to share these stories and experiences with them because I believe they are worth living, creating endearing memories in the process. The things I want to show you should not just be kept inside dusty history books! PhD in history Associate Fellow of Higher Education

Overview of your Southampton tour

Departing from Southampton, we will visit Stonehenge first thing in the morning so you can enjoy the site with this special kind of light. Stonehenge has now a modern interpretation centre and a great gift shop so come prepared! I always like to take people around the interpretation centre as well as the actual stone circle because there is so much more to Stonehenge than just rocks. As a historian (and local tour guide) my aim is to help you understand not just why this place is so mysterious and iconic. I want you to leave Stonehenge asking yourself questions about the early civilizations in this country, what they did and why. After our visit to the site we will head to Salisbury which is a quaint market town in Wiltshire, also renown for its beautiful Gothic Cathedral. I studied this cathedral in depth for my history degree so I want to share this with you. Moreover, Salisbury is a great place to do shopping and have lunch/afternoon tea, so you will get a taste of proper England outside of London!
