Local tour guides at Bike Rental San Sebastian
Bike Rental San Sebastian was created with the aim of offering visitors the chance to feel like a local and live unforgettable experiences with the city of San Sebastian as a common thread.
The best tours can only be done with the best guides.
Dare to go off the “official circuit” with one of our themed bike tours, through which you can discover places that you can only discover accompanied by a local guide.
The different neighbourhoods with their peculiarities, our favourite pintxos (not only in the Old Town), the gastronomic societies or the natural spaces that surround us… Our guided tours are designed for all audiences, always with the aim that you have fun getting to know the city and live it, enjoy it and squeeze it as we locals do every day.
Iñigo Ansa
Kaixo! I’m Iñigo, one of the founders of Go Local. I graduated in tourism from the University of Deusto in 2008. My favourite tour is any bike tour, for me the best way to get around San Sebastian and its surroundings.

“We loved it, lots of information, lots of history, Iñigo was very friendly and pleasant. Best of all, you could really tell that the guide loved his city, that passion is transmitted and we now see San Sebastian with different eyes.”

Pelayo Lasa
Kaixo! My name is Pelayo and I am one of the Go Local guides. Although I was born outside of Donosti, all my paternal family is from here and I feel like I have lived in the city all my life. Besides, I love its history, its culture and its atmosphere, so I always try to show you that Donosti is much more than a postcard or some pintxos.

“My husband and I totally enjoyed our tour of the Old City with Pelayo. His English is excellent, and he has an engaging manner, with a deep historical knowledge of San Sebastian and Spain.

Alba Irazabalbeitia
Kaixo! I’m Alba, and although my name doesn’t sound very Basque, my unpronounceable surname proves the opposite. I’ve always been from San Sebastian. Art historian and guide for years, I love travelling, languages and of course Art. But what I like most on the tours is to talk about what it means to be from San Sebastian (for example, what are the Bule, the Consti or the Buenpas?)

Alain Larraya
Alain, friend of my friends and lover of risk sports, I landed in Donosti several years ago with the intention of setting up my base camp here. I chose a degree in tourism because I have always enjoyed travelling and getting to know new places and their respective cultures, and in my experience in the sector I have carried out an endless number of activities of different kinds.

“Getting to know Donosti is already something wonderful, but when it is explained to you with such detail and affection as Alain, our guide, did, you can’t help but fall in love with the city. Thank you for your professionalism and your Basque lessons”.

Hegoi Iparraguirre
Hello! My name is Hegoi, a name that has its roots in Basque mythology, and since I was a child I have been fascinated by Basque culture and above all by talking about it with anyone who wants to know about it, so when I could, I studied tourism and nowadays I work as a guide at Bike Rental San Sebastian.
