My enjoyment in what I do is noticeable and infectious. I lean toward smaller gatherings for a more intimate setting and a unique experience.

Great introduction to San Sebastián - Fanny was an excellent guide for our tour of San Sebastián. It was a great introduction to the city and she shared lots of history and information.

Fanny was a very good tour guide, very informative, knowledgeable of the history and culture of San Sebastián - Do the tour at the start of your break so you get an idea of what you want to see and do and where to eat. 100 caracters this should do it

Unmissable San Sebastián Experience - We had the most amazing experience. Fanny, our tour guide was a beautiful story teller with such rich insight into the history of Basque Country. She took us through all the local favourite Pintox places and left us with a list of places to visit, eat and drink. Overall Fanny set us up for an awesome time in San Sebastián and an appreciation for its history and culture.

Phenomenal Walking Tour - I’m so glad I did this walking tour with Fanny! Fanny is incredibly engaging - she asked my questions to get my mind turning and shared her knowledge of the city so memorably. After the tour, I felt I had more context and appreciation for the city which enhanced my experience. Thanks Fanny!

Awesome tour/tour guide - Awesome tour, lots of history and good paced activity. Fanny very knowledgeable tour guide, we got lucky no other people joined us, so we had a private tour. We learned so much about Donostia, food, drinks, secret societies etc…

A highlight of all of our travels! - Fanny was a fantastic guide as we toured the old town. She was a great communicator and her knowledge of the history was excellent! She was able to weave her stories and the history in a very entertaining way! The walk itself is mostly on flat terrain so easy for most people. We particularly appreciated Fanny’s suggestions for her favourite places for particular pintxo. She sent them to us via WhatsApp- so useful! We started with Adamo in Gos with the delicious tortilla de potato, cider while watching the waves break. It was worth the stroll along the waterfront and they were open already. Later we returned to the old town to savour more of her fabulous suggestions. It is just as well we have more time left in San Sebastián to try even more! We really did like the warm and directly prepared dishes Fanny suggested! You have to follow her suggestions!
