Welcome to the Northern Spain Travel Press Room — your dedicated hub for press materials, media inquiries, brand stories, founder insights, and high-quality assets.
We create luxury immersive journeys across Northern Spain, connecting travelers with the chefs, winemakers, artisans, artists and cultural leaders who give this region its identity.
If you cover luxury travel, gastronomy, cultural exploration or human-centered tourism, this page is your gateway into our world.
Northern Spain Travel (NST) is a boutique luxury travel company specializing in immersive, tailor-made journeys through the northern regions of Spain.
Our philosophy is simple: meaningful travel is born from meaningful encounters.
Founded by Canadian explorer Stephanie Mutsaers and now led by her son Oliver, NST represents two generations united by a shared belief:
A journey is remembered for the people you meet along the way.
NST combines deep regional expertise, long-standing local relationships, and genuine human warmth to create journeys rooted in authenticity, culture, gastronomy and connection.
Not mass-market tourism. Our journeys reveal the cultural, historical and human depth of Northern Spain.
Thanks to decades of personal relationships, our travelers meet:
These experiences cannot be booked online — they must be invited.
Every itinerary is built from scratch around each traveler’s pace, tastes and curiosity.
Two generations of explorers behind every detail.
A growing network of travelers who share our values: authenticity, curiosity, gastronomy, culture and human connection.

Born in Vancouver to Dutch parents, Stephanie has spent her life exploring the world through climbing, food and cultural immersion. After discovering Northern Spain, she fell in love with its people, landscapes and spirit — planting the seeds of NST.
Her warmth, curiosity and adventurous spirit remain the backbone of the company.
Raised on global adventures from childhood, Oliver inherited his mother’s passion for travel and human connection. Today he leads NST with the same generosity, empathy and spirit — combined with a drive for excellence, innovation and growth.
He is the architect behind NST’s evolution and the expanding OBM Insider community.
