Do you know why traditional Basque houses have red doors and windows? Ask your guide. They will be delighted to tell you about their country’s traditions as you take a full-day tour of the French Basque Country.
You will discover Basque wines at a winery in Saint Jean de Luz, then explore the town centre. The old streets are lined with half-timbered houses painted white and red. Boats rock in the small harbour, and the long beach is fine sand. After you savour local dishes at a traditional restaurant, your guide will take you to Biarritz. Here you will walk on the famous surfing beaches — but also discover an elegant town, the fashionable haunt of aristocrats and royalty in the 19th century.
Besides English, you can take this tour with a guide who speaks French, Spanish, Czech, Basque, German, or Portuguese — or even Japanese and Chinese. Just let us know which you prefer.
