French Basque Country Tours: Coastal Beauty & Captivating City Walks

Biarritz: Quiet Luxury, Aristocratic Elegance & Wild Ocean Energy.
Biarritz is where quiet luxury meets the power of the Atlantic. This elegant city breathes memories of a bygone era: it all began with a royal love story that inspired the construction of a magnificent summer residence. And that’s where the Biarritz I want to share with you begins.

Join me for a stroll along the beach promenade, soak in the vibrant atmosphere of its charming local market, savor refined French cuisine, and discover the timeless elegance of this coastal gem. These are the unforgettable moments of our Biarritz walking tour.

Saint-Jean-de-Luz: Where History and Beauty Meet.
You simply can’t miss Saint-Jean-de-Luz, with its traditional Basque architecture that looks like something out of a fairytale. This picturesque town was the wedding site of none other than Louis XIV, the Sun King, who married Maria Theresa of Spain here in 1660.

While Dumas barely mentions it in his novels, our Saint-Jean-de-Luz tour brings the full story to life, including a taste of the royal dessert once served at their wedding banquet!

This is a Russian guide who speaks excellent English and Spanish. She is very up to what is in the area, the history, and what you want to see and do. I would use her again if in the area. Highly recommended
