CUSTOM TOUR OF BAYONNE, BIARRITZ AND SAINT-JEAN-DE-LUZ

Experience the History, Coastline and French Basque Chocolate on a full-day Tour

The tour begins in Bayonne, a city with a vibrant medieval past and widely regarded as the chocolate capital of France. We stroll through its historic center, ancient walls, and lively streets while discovering how local artisans have preserved centuries-old chocolate-making traditions. We visit a historic shop where the famous bâton de chocolat is produced, a bar of pure cocoa encased in a chocolate shell, one of the city’s most iconic specialties.

The journey continues to Biarritz, once the summer retreat of European aristocracy. Its grand mansions, Atlantic beaches, and the famous Rocher de la Vierge create an elegant yet relaxed atmosphere. Here, you will have free time to stroll along the waterfront, enjoy a drink by the sea, or explore the town’s boutiques and cafés.

We finish in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, a charming fishing village rich in history and maritime tradition. We explore its harbor, narrow streets, and the Church of Saint John the Baptist, where King Louis XIV was married. It is the perfect place to experience the essence of the French Basque Country before returning.
