Hondarribia Old Town & Border River Private Walk

Explore the fortified Basque-French border town of Hondarribia, its Gothic quarter and Charles V's castle, on a private walk with a local historian.

What to expect

You'll wander cobbled streets between brightly-shuttered wooden balconies to the fortress walls overlooking the Bidasoa River and France beyond. Your guide recounts sieges, smuggling routes, and the pheasant-island treaty ritual still observed today. The walk ends at a quiet riverside terrace for coffee.
