What is “Walled Hondarribia” – A Journey Through History and Color

Discover the dual soul of Hondarribia, a Basque coastal town rich in history and charm. Begin with a private guided walk through the medieval old town, exploring the fortified walls, Charles V’s Castle, the Plaza de Armas, and noble stone houses that tell stories of centuries of borderland life. The tour continues into La Marina, the fishermen’s quarter, where whitewashed façades bloom with colorful balconies. As you stroll past taverns and boats rocking in the harbor, your guide reveals the living rhythm of a town where the sea and the past coexist with quiet elegance.

Destinations are important. But so is the journey. And so are you. We strongly believe that slowing down the pace benefits your mind, body, and soul, the communities you visit, and the environment we live in. We think now is the time to strip it back to basics, embrace the places we visit and remember what’s truly important about travel. It’s no longer about ticking off a checklist, but instead about leaving something for the next time you visit. As let’s face it; a country can never truly be ‘completed’.
