Good morning ! I am a real Basque, I will show you around Biarritz and the Basque Country, with its prehistoric, very ancient and particular culture. I have been doing tours for 2 years with great success.

We leave from the lighthouse where we have an overview of Biarritz and the Basque Country. Then we walk to the city center: I tell the story by telling you about the architecture, the emblematic buildings.

I bring good humor, poetry and a connection to nature. I put Biarritz in the Basque Country by explaining to you our language, our culture and its religion of nature which has its source in prehistory.

I invite you to tourist trails for gastronomy, sports and cultural activities.

I am French Basque from Biarritz, I speak Basque and I give you an authentic experience. I welcome you with good humor so that you leave the Basque country wiser.
