Bayonne
After morning pickup at your accommodation in San Sebastian, we will cross the border into France to visit three of the most beautiful coastal villages in the French Basque region. Our first stop will be Bayonne, the cultural capital of the Basque Country. Packed with history, a strong cultural heritage, and beautiful architecture, the city is to this day an important economic center for the Basque region, as well as the French capital of chocolate (and who doesn’t love chocolate?).
Biarritz
We will continue our trip heading towards the elegant town of Biarritz, possibly the most stylish and luxurious city of the Basque Country. A former whaling town and meeting point for European aristocracy in the XIX century, Biarritz remains today an important tourist destination thanks to its luxurious Hôtel du Palais, numerous chic shops and fashion boutiques, casinos, extensive beaches, and surfing scene. Here you will get some free time to enjoy lunch on your own and/or do some shopping if desired.
Saint-Jean-de-Luz
Our last stop before returning to San Sebastian will be the colorful and easy-going beach town of Saint Jean de Luz. Sitting on a half-moon bay of the same name, St. Jean de Luz is a charming little fishing port village on the Basque Coast with famous pedestrian streets full of small local shops and restaurants. We will take a stroll through its famous streets and enjoy a breath of fresh air from its beach promenade while learning about the history of the town.
