Overview

Your local guide leads you along the most important sights of Pamplona's beautiful Old Town. With no more than 10 participants, the group is small. So you can easily ask questions and take advantage of your local guide’s knowledge of the city and its surroundings. During this tour you learn about Pamplona's history and modern day Pamplona. Because Pamplona is so much more than the famous annual Bull Run.

Your guide, originally from the Netherlands, has lived in Spain since 2020. He's been amazed by some aspects of the Spanish way of life ever since. Precisely because he doesn't take Spanish customs and traditions for granted, he can explain to foreign tourists what makes this culture so special. Halfway we will take a break in the oldest and most iconic bar in Pamplona with an included cup of tea or coffee and to taste churros.

A surprising walk with interesting background information and fun facts. Available in English, German and Dutch. Registration number Turismo Navarra UETC0137
