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.

Limited information. Alan was nice and totally accommodating but we didn’t feel we got much out of the tour.

Alan is a passionate, proud Basque man. A local from Biarritz with great historical, cultural, geological and more information and stories of the Basque country and Biarritz. If you visit Biarritz, the walk with him from the Lighthouse to the centre of town is unmissable. Highly recommended.
