Basque Country

Here the tradition is not folklore

Easy to be enchanted, as the local tradition is alive and omnipresent here. The Basque culture will intrigue and captivate you.

Year round festivities of colour and conviviality are organised by each town…take part in the traditional dance of the fandango and pelote…but leave the cow racing and daring challenges to the locals!

The Myths are Alive...

Take a trip to the breathtaking canyons and gorges…trek along the stunning waterfalls of Kakuetta. Tour Sainte-Engrace, one of the most picturesque and legendary villages in the Basque Country, venture further and discover the mythic caverns of Sare.  Take a fishing trip!
