What sets us apart?
As Steph Mutsaerts says, «We have two goals: one is to bedazzle our visitors and the other the share the most enchanting elements of this region of Spain. I’ve teamed up with locals who have as much enthusiasm for their home as I do! Join us, and be bedazzled.»

Hemingway and San Fermin Festival
“The Basques are good people. Very noble but also very noisy”.
Ernest Hemingway
Our Northern Spain Travel Hemingway tours are pure travel adventure. Ernest Hemingway’s writings depict a world that is fascinating and enjoyable, inspiring his readers to make the most of their life too. Explore the northern region following in the footsteps of Hemingway, a Nobel Prize winning author, a man who adored the North of Spain and San Fermin, which he wrote about extensively.
Hemingway loved places with a unique atmosphere and identity of their own. Our Hemingway territory is made up of three separate cultural identities with more than 3000 years of history to unravel along the way, and is located in the angle formed by the Bay of Biscay on the Franco-Spanish border. The area boasts many of the most popular and beloved festivals in the world nestled among an endless array of landscapes and quaint medieval villages. On top of all that, Northern Spain is rife with exquisite traditional and modern cuisine and a world class wine region. All this is only 6 hours by train from Paris, 4 hours from Barcelona, and 3.5 hours from Madrid.

DISCOVER THE NORTH
SPRING – SUMMER – WINTER – FALL
The common thread in everything we design is based on our four essentials of history, culture, gastronomy and landscapes. We seek authentic immersive experiences that will generate both curiosity and enthusiasm.
July offers San Fermin and the running of the bulls, with local fiestas continuing all the way through until September. There are several city festivals like Flamenco on Fire which run through August; the grape harvest for wine lovers is in October and November; December is full of colour and song with its Christmas season folklore in Lesaka; the lively carnivals of Iturren and Lanz are in January. Cycling in this region is all year round and is outstanding. Join us on a wine tour in neighbouring Rioja, learn about the Basque folklore on a walking tour through the Basque Lands and our Gastro Tour we call The Moveable Feast, inspired by Hemingway. Come and discover the North of Spain.
