- Bidart - Next, visit the neighboring village of Bidart, a quintessential Basque village featuring a church, pediment, and town hall. This provides an opportunity for your guide to explain Basque social organization and the unique aspects of our churches. The breathtaking coastal views will captivate those who love expansive landscapes!
- Saint-Jean-de-Luz - The main stop at Saint Jean de Luz includes a walk on a hill offering stunning views of the magnificent bay. For those who prefer not to walk, a viewpoint is easily accessible.
The town center tour covers the beach, pedestrian and shopping streets, the fishing port, and magnificent 17th-century shipowners’ houses. Your guide will discuss various topics: whaling, affluent shipowners, the privateer era, the marriage of Louis XIV, Napoleon III’s town reorganization, tourism development, and Art Deco treasures.
- Hondarribia - Journey to the border to experience the charm of our beautiful Spanish neighbor, Fontarrabie. This medieval town is rich in history, featuring fortifications, Charles V’s castle, pedestrian streets, and a fishermen’s quarter with renowned Pintxos (Basque tapas) bars.
A visit to a Txakoli winery is also an option: this dry white wine from the Basque region is produced in vineyards high above the villages of Getaria (Spain) and Fontarrabie. It is slightly fizzy and served by raising and lowering the bottle above the glass to aerate it generously. The vineyards, facing the ocean, benefit from the sea spray, giving the wine a unique flavor! Serve chilled with fish and seafood appetizers, and it pairs wonderfully with salted anchovies and tuna in oil.
