Discover the French Basque Country with a tour from San Sebastián that combines Atlantic landscapes, history, and local flavor in a day designed for unhurried enjoyment. We begin in stately Biarritz, a former 19th-century royal summer resort, where we will visit the Grand Plage, the Rocher de la Vierge, the Casino, and the iconic Hotel du Palais. Your guide will share anecdotes from the Belle Époque and show you the most photogenic spots of this coastal gem.
The journey continues to Bayonne, the chocolate capital of the French Basque Country and the meeting point of the Nive and Adour rivers. We will stroll through the Grand Bayonne district, visit the Sainte-Marie Cathedral, and immerse ourselves in the local life of its market and streets lined with half-timbered facades and artisan shops. With private transportation and a bilingual guide, this itinerary is the most comfortable way to capture the contrasts between the imperial architecture facing the Bay of Biscay and the cocoa-scented medieval alleys, returning to San Sebastián after exploring the best of the French coast.
