About Me

I am a professional Tour Guide from San Sebastián, passionate about sharing the culture, history, traditions, and gastronomy of the Basque Country. With over ten years of experience, I guide travelers with the authentic spirit of this land—through its neighborhoods, viewpoints, markets, coastal paths, and of course, its pintxo culture. What I love most is meeting people from around the world and creating memorable experiences that bring our rich heritage to life. As we explore the city together for the amount of time you choose, I’ll also share plenty of ideas, insights, and recommendations so you can continue discovering San Sebastián on your own. I hold the Queer Destination recognition and the Ethical Code Seal granted by the Basque Government, ensuring that all my tours are inclusive, welcoming, and suitable for everyone. And as many visitors often say after their first day here: “I’ve just arrived… and I already want to come back.”
