What to expect
You'll move at a measured pace through narrow Old Town streets with a knowledgeable local who adapts commentary to what you want to explore. Expect to spend time inside two churches and admire the Cathedral's facade, then walk the famous route bulls and runners take each July. The guide answers questions on everything from medieval Navarre to Hemingway's visits, Sanfermines traditions, or where locals eat. The tour runs rain or shine across mostly flat, accessible surfaces. You finish around 7pm by the bullring.
