What to expect from our full-day Basque Country tour

The Basque Country is a picture-perfect region of France that is steeped in history and a mere two hours south of Bordeaux. With so much to see and do, it can be overwhelming trying to plan a trip all by yourself. It might be worthwhile leaving your Basque Country itinerary to the professionals while you sit back and soak up the landscape during a private guided tour that we can work on together. The full-day Itinerary can be completely tailored to what you’d like to see. Some suggested places include: Biarritz, Espelette, Saint-Jean-de-Luz, Guétary, Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, and more.

Depart from Bordeaux

Your Basque Country trip will depart from the center of Bordeaux, where you will be picked up by a professional guide who will safely escort you throughout the Basque Country region. During the drive, you can sit back and enjoy the sweeping vistas over the Atlantic coast and the Pyrenees. We will traverse the lush pine forest of the Landes region, before arriving at our first stop.

Visit to Espelette

We suggest starting your visit at Espelette, a picturesque village known for its sweet peppers. Take a stroll along the cobbled streets, marvel at the traditional half-timber houses with façades adorned in peppers, and try some traditional specialties in the local shops.

Visit to Biarritz

Next, maybe you can be tempted by Biarritz, the most well-known town in the Basque Country. It’s a charming seaside town known for its fine sand beaches and striking architecture. You’ll have some free time to amble along the streets, explore the local shops or simply take some time out on the beach, to admire the views over the Atlantic Ocean. You can find the perfect spot for a lunch break at a restaurant of your choice.

Visit to Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port

Or you may prefer to opt for Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, a medieval town on the route to Santiago de Compostela. Lose yourself in the narrow streets and historic buildings or visit the citadel overlooking the entire town.

Return to Bordeaux

After a full day of sightseeing, we will return to Bordeaux. To help set you up for the perfect evening, our guide can also provide some local recommendations and tips.
