What To Expect
Bayonne
Bayonne – Rivers, Colors & First Stories We start the day in Bayonne, where rivers meet colorful streets and Basque life feels very much alive. As we wander through the old town, we’ll explore the cathedral, cross bridges, and talk about how Basque culture took shape on the French side of the border. It’s an easy, friendly introduction to the region—and a great place to get your bearings (and your camera out).
Biarritz
Biarritz – Ocean Views & Do-Your-Own Lunch Next up is Biarritz, where the Atlantic steals the show. We’ll stroll along the seafront, enjoy big ocean views, and pass through the lively Les Halles market. This is your time: grab lunch if something smells too good to ignore, sit down for a long seaside coffee, or simply wander and watch surfers do their thing. No schedule stress here—Biarritz is meant to be enjoyed at your own pace.

5.00We were lucky to get Mikel on a private tour for our family - he is deeply knowledgeable about the Basque region, its history and traditions. The tour was well planned, and we had enough time during the tour to experience the unique charm of each city. The entire Basque region has so much to offer, and we can’t wait to come back to continue learning about this beautiful area.
Great 1 Day Trip, Great Host, would do it again!!

5.00Such an amazing day. Was perfect for a one day trip around the local area and French Basque towns. Markel the host was excellent, he was very friendly, polite and made us feel at ease. He had so much knowledge of the history and local areas, there was never a dull moment and it felt like a great balance between seeing the sights, the culture and learning a lot! Would 100% recommend to anyone, singles, couples and small families/groups.
Best Tour Of Your Life!

5.00My 14 year old twins and I did this tour on 6/12 with Martin and it was incredible. Total group size was 5 people and Martin knew every city like the back of his hand! Bayonne, Biarritz and Saint Jean de Lux —such rich history he shared on each location with entertaining stories that brought the people and rich history to life! Martin grew up in San Sebastián and his family is multi generation wine makers — and he has traveled the world. He seems to love providing a fun and entertaining day learning about French while being very flexible and accommodating to the interests and culinary preferences of his participants. This was an amazing day—and I perhaps learned more History about France in the 8 hours of the adventure than 12 years of schooling in the U.S. You will go to THE most beautiful spots for photos—visual memories to have for a life time! GO ON THIS TOUR!! It is worth every penny—you deserve an amazing experience and book this tour and make sure Martin is your tour guide!
Beautiful scenery and wonderful history!

5.00Wonderful and informative day touring Bayonne, Biarritz and St Jean. We enjoyed walking these beautiful towns and stopping at the chocolate shop Puyodebat and the bakery that serves the original Macaron - Maison Adam. Thank you for the great information on the history and culture of the Basque country.
Most enjoyable day.

5.00What an amazing journey Martin cultivated for us. Before we left San Sebastian, he asked a few questions so that he could tailor our trip and off we went. Having spent time in Bayonne, Biarritz, St.Jean De Luz when he had lots of great insights to small shops to pick up chocolate or macaroons or great backroads with scenic vistas. We were going to make this trip by ourselves and so thrilled that we did not.
Great Trip and Flexibility

5.00Excellent tour. Martin did was realloy great. When we arrived in Biarritz they were having an event in town and there was no place to park and traffic was a nightmare. Martin suggested we move on and offered an alternate location of Hondarribia which was excellent and a much nore interesting location and a beautifil drive.
