What to expect

Your driver collects you in the morning and handles all transport between towns. In Bayonne, your guide takes you through the market, pointing out produce, cured meats, and local suppliers, before heading to the chocolate house for a proper tasting. You'll drive the coast to Biarritz, where you can wander the seafront and photograph the villas at your own speed. Lunch follows in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, a working fishing village where your table catches the sea view. The pace is unhurried—there's no rushing between stops or crowding at attractions.

Good to know

Lunch is optional and can be arranged. Bring comfortable walking shoes for market and coastal sections. The guide speaks English and Spanish; Portuguese available on request. Prams and infant seats provided. Suitable for all fitness levels.
