Description of the Private Walking Tour of Pamplona

Pamplona is an ancient city located in northern Spain, which is surrounded by centuries-old medieval walls. It is also a favorite destination for tourists because it is home to the San Fermin festival and also hides many treasures among its striking cobblestone streets.

In addition, you will visit other historical gems such as the Basilica of San Lorenzo, Citadel Park, among many other sites. 

It is also a perfect excursion for you to learn about the history of the three most important traditions of Pamplona: bullfighting, gastronomy and the emblematic running of the bulls of San Fermín.

Points of Interest of the Private Tour

Although Pamplona is known around the world for its iconic San Fermin festival, it is really a destination that has many other things to offer visitors. 

Take a private walking tour of Pamplona to learn more about the history of this attractive medieval city. 

Relax, while you explore the most interesting places in Pamplona without the discomfort of crowds and in the company of an official guide, who will take you to the following points of interest: 

The Castle Square 

We started the guided tour in the heart of the city: the Plaza del Castillo. This point was the old parade ground of the castle built in that place by Luis Hutín in 1310. Since then, it has been an essential part of Pamplona’s traditions. 

In addition, around it are some of the most historic buildings of the city, such as, for example, the Palace of Navarra. 

Also, in the center of the square is its symbolic kiosk, which dates back to 1943 and was one of the places most frequented by Ernest Hemingway while he lived in Pamplona.

The Plaza Consistorial

The tour will take you to the Plaza Consistorial, one of the most historic points of the city and where the City Hall building is located. 

In addition, this is a symbol of Pamplona, since the famous “chupinazo” (fireworks display) is held there every July 6th to kick off the San Fermín festivities. 

The Cathedral of Pamplona 

You cannot miss a visit to the Cathedral of Pamplona, which is one of the best preserved Gothic buildings in the country and is combined with a delicate neoclassical structure. 

This monument houses many historical treasures such as the tomb of Charles III and Eleanor of Castile. 

Very close to the cathedral, you will also find the Plaza San José, which is a corner that will make you fall in love with its beautiful bohemian architecture. 

The best thing is that the whole tour will be accompanied by a private guide who will be in charge of giving you all the historical information of interest to you. 

Apart from these attractions, on this private walking tour you will also have the opportunity to explore the following sites:

• The route of the running of the bulls.
• The walls of Pamplona.
• The Church of San Saturnino.
• Yamaguchi Park.
• Estafeta Street.
• The Museum of Navarra and many other destinations. 

At the end of the 3-hour tour, the guide will accompany you to a central point of the city so that you can continue enjoying all that Pamplona has to see and learn about.
