We want you to experience the soul of Spain – through its history, art, architecture, award-winning food & wine but also through the people who make it what it is.
Your time is precious & never more so than when traveling. We won’t let you waste it.
Let’s make you an insider.
Who we are & what we do
We are outsiders who came to Spain and stayed long enough to become Insiders. Together we have half a century of combined experience in this country, building relationships, exploring the landscape, and absorbing the culture. Our good friends include chefs, wine-makers, and flamenco dancers, while our favourite places range from Basque pintxo bars to lamplit Madrid plazas to Andalusian mountain villages.
As a small dedicated British & American team, it’s our absolute pleasure to share with you what we’ve learned. To show you around in such a way that you too come to know and love Spain as we do.

Connecting people & creating experiences that make you feel like an insider.
