Pamplona & Bilbao BBK Live (Hotel)

Hola! Welcome to Pamplona! Get ready for the adrenalin pumping experience: the population of Pamplona explodes for this 9 day party, known as San Fermín, with around 350,000 travellers heading to this usually quiet town to experience a slice of the bull running action for themselves. On arrival check in to your hotel, meet your Tour Manager and fellow tour mates & head out to soak up the atmosphere. The vibe here is electric, and so your Tour Manager will offer you an orientation of the town before you get amongst the festivities yourself!

Get the party started this morning & live it like a local! Play a part in this 400 year old tradition, where bulls are let loose through the city streets. Don your red & white gear if you're game enough to get amongst it - or steer clear as a spectator - the vibes are just as exciting. After the run, the rest of the day is free for you to do as you wish. Check out the "Gigantes y Cabezudos" (Giants & Big Heads procession) or head down to Plaza de los Fueros for a look at some Basque rural sports, like stone lifting and wood cutting. Maybe check out a bull fight one evening or just hang around town for a couple of cocktails and soak up the atmosphere - this party is awesome, so let the good times roll!
