Bayonne 2000 years of history and uniqueness city tour

Bayonne 2000 years of history and uniqueness city tour

What makes Bayonne unique are the cobbled streets, the narrow streets, the very beautiful old town with its Basque half-timbered houses, the charming shops, the spectacular facades along the waterfront of the Nive. Bayonne invites you to stroll, eat and drink in the shade of trees and let the city take over.

Let yourself be seduced by the capital of chocolate. I am happy to show you this Basque metropolis, embedded in 2 rivers, with a 2,000-year history and a unique, intact old town.
