Overview

Uncover the heart of Pamplona on this private day trip from San Sebastián. Follow in Ernest Hemingway’s footsteps through the historic Old Town, Plaza del Castillo, and the famous Running of the Bulls (Encierro) route. Visit the impressive medieval Citadel and its peaceful gardens. A true highlight is the exclusive visit to a replica of Estafeta Street, where you can take unforgettable photos alongside authentic, full-scale taxidermy San Fermín bulls.
After exploring Pamplona, enjoy a scenic drive through the breathtaking Malloak mountains and picture-perfect Basque villages. Continue to charming Tolosa: on Saturdays, when its vibrant market is open, we include a guided tour of the market and historic old town. Then enjoy lunch at Elketa Jatetxea – a genuine non-touristy local restaurant celebrated for its prize-winning Menu of the Day, among the finest in Gipuzkoa. Authentic Basque flavors, warm hospitality, and stunning views complete this memorable experience.

A great tour we would recommend!

Alex was an excellent guide. He shared so many tidbits about the culture, the region, his personal favorites while we enjoyed the beauty of the region. It was a lovely day. And lunch at Elketa, outside Tolosa, was an authentic local and delicious experience. I think we were the only tourists in a room full of locals.

Jimi Turned a Tour into a Spiritual Gift for My Family

I booked this tour to Lourdes for my mother and grandmother, and it ended up being one of the most the highlight of their trip. Even though Jimi had a health scare the day before, he still made it—something we will never forget. That alone speaks to his character and dedication. From the moment the tour began, Jimi was warm, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. He spoke perfect Spanish and perfect English, which made everything feel personal and accessible for my mother and grandmother. Jimi guided them with such care and reverence. He made them feel safe, seen, and spiritually connected every step of the way. They returned filled with peace, gratitude, and awe. This was more than a tour, it was a moment of grace, and Jimi was the reason why. Thank you, Jimi, for giving my family a memory that will stay with them forever.

This was the best option to visit Lourdes

This was definitely the best tour we have ever done. Everything was perfect, from the car's confort to the completeness of the tour. Daiana told us the whole history with lots of details about Bernadette and the miraculous recovery's of many sick people in this sacred temple. We also enjoyed the mass in English option and a lunch stop. Thank you for making one of my dreams come true 🙏

Tailored to perfection

This tour was a dream. The tour was tailored to perfection for us. San Sebastian is one of my favourite city's in the world. It has a beautiful beach, the people are wonderful and the food is the best I have ever had. I highly recommend this company!

Great time, will definitely use again next time we visit the area!

Great time and very informative! Pickup/dropoff at our hotel made it incredibly easy to take a quick rest day during our Camino. Jimmi was on time, easy to chat with and very informative. The tour was fun for both myself and my son, and we hit all the places we were wanting to see. Would definitely recommend! Such a great and easy way to explore when you are out traveling and want to see a little more with some added local history and insight.
