After picking you up from your accommodation, we will take the highway directly to reach the great stage of Saint Jean de Luz! It will be approached by a walk on a hill overlooking this beautiful bay and offering breathtaking views. If walking is not for you, you can easily access a viewpoint with the van.
50 minutes
The city center tour includes the beach, pedestrian shopping streets, the fishing port and the sumptuous 17th-century houses. Your guide will reveal many themes: whaling, wealthy shipowners, the era of privateers, the marriage of Louis XIV, the reconquest of the city by Napoleon III, the development of tourism and the treasures of Art Deco.

Ainhoa
Nearby is the charming village of Ainhoa, listed among the most beautiful villages in France, where your guide will introduce you to Basque culture and social organization.
