Day trip to the French Basque Coast from Biarritz or Bayonne

Explore three iconic cities in one day. You'll start in Biarritz, the elegant Atlantic gem that transformed from a whaling port into a destination for royalty. You will visit highlights like the Casino, the Hôtel du Palais exterior, Sainte Eugénie Church, and the spectacular views from the Rocher de la Vierge.

Next, you head to Bayonne, the historic capital of the French Basque Country. We’ll walk through the old town to see the Château Vieux, the Cathedral, and Rue Port Neuf—famous for its chocolate tradition—before arriving at Les Halles Market. Here you’ll have free time for lunch or local shopping (lunch not included).

In the afternoon, you conclude in Saint-Jean-de-Luz with a guided walk. We’ll pass traditional Basque houses to reach the church where Louis XIV was married, ending at the fishing port to enjoy coastal views and the town’s famous macarons.

This tour perfectly blends history, architecture, and gastronomy to showcase the authentic Basque spirit.
