Hello everyone! I'm Maite, from the Canary Islands, and I work as a certified tour guide. I'm passionate about travel, languages, gastronomy, history and the natural environment, hiking, and discovering and sharing meaningful experiences. I'm in love with my Canary Islands, especially Gran Canaria, the land where I was born and where I live, and also with Lille, a city in northern France, near the Belgian border, which I visited one hot summer day and where, out of love, I spend part of the year. I'd be delighted if you'd like to explore them with me. Although it might not seem like it, both places have a lot in common: the warmth and joy of their people, iconic landmarks to discover and explore, and a history, heritage, gastronomy, and natural environment that are well worth experiencing. They are also culturally rich and vibrant, with historic centers and streets that are a pleasure to walk along, and towns and cities to enjoy with all your senses. My tours have one main goal: to make them unforgettable for you. Discover the places you visit with heart and passion, from a local and authentic perspective. On each tour, we'll not only journey through time to learn about the history, anecdotes, and curiosities of the area we're visiting, but also its present: recommending local places to shop, grab a snack, a coffee, or a beer, and suggesting possible cultural activities on offer. During the tour, I'll be your guide and, if you wish, your friend, so feel free to ask me anything you need. Don't hesitate and join me on this adventure! I'm designing new tours, so ask me if you're interested.
Maite es esforzó mucho en el tour, aportándonos gran cantidad de información y datos interesantes
Maite fue una excelente guía. Nos dio una gran cantidad de información sobre la ciudad, así como recomendaciones de restaurantes, museos y planes en Lille. Además fue una persona super agradable y puntual. La recomiendo sin duda.
Our guide in Lille, Maite, was absolutely lovely. She explained everything clearly and you could tell she truly knows what she’s talking about. Her explanations were engaging, and very easy to follow, which made the whole experience feel both educational and enjoyable. She has a very natural, didactic way of guiding, and it really shows in how confidently and kindly she shares the history of the city. Maite, nuestra guía en Lille, fue realmente encantadora. Explicó todo con mucha claridad y se notaba que sabe muy bien de lo que habla. Sus explicaciones fueron didácticas y muy fáciles de seguir, lo que hizo que toda la experiencia fuera educativa y agradable. Tiene una forma muy natural de guiar, y se nota en la seguridad y amabilidad con la que comparte la historia de la ciudad. 100% recomendada.
La experiencia fue muy buena con Maite, en ningún momento dejamos de tener interés por como y lo que nos explicaba, llevábamos una visión de Lille gracias a ella muy completa y nos ha encantado su trabajo y la ciudad! Muchas gracias Maite!
