*******************
Something that we have realized is IMPORTANT ; and some people book several freetours with different guides, in Pamplona because of the name, a priori, they are different... I'm sorry to tell you that NO, they are practically the same, so even if the title changes, it is most likely that You hear something similar on both tours and you don't like the one you do second (because it's repetitive).

If you hear about Pamplona, the first thing that probably comes to mind is the San Fermin festival, but what if I told you that it is a city with more than 3,000 years of history, marked by its strategic location and the countless conflicts that have existed within its imposing walls?
We will begin our tour in the heart of the city, Plaza del Castillo, and then visit the most emblematic places of the festivities, the town hall and Cuesta de Santo Domingo, the Mercaderes curve and the famous Estafeta street.
We will talk about medieval Iruña with the church of San Saturnino, the Cathedral and the Rincón de Caballo Blanco.
We will end by taking a short tour of the walls, from the Baluarte del Redín to the Portal de Francia. Our last destination will be the Archivo de Navarra, where we will briefly summarize everything we have seen so far, and you will realize that Pamplona is much more than its main festivals.
THIS ACTIVITY HAS A MINIMUM OF TWO PARTICIPANTS TO BE CARRIED OUT
El Free Tour en Pamplona es la mejor manera de conocer la cultura y la historia de la que, antaño, fue la capital de un glorioso reino, absorbido por las poderosas potencias aledañas de Castilla, Aragón y Francia.
Quedaremos a la hora establecida en la Plaza de la Constitución, junto a la Ciudadela de Pamplona, una de las obras de ingeniería militar renacentista mejor conservadas de Europa. Nos adentraremos en el casco antiguo por el Paseo Sarasate, el paseo de los antiguos reyes, hasta llegar a la Plaza del Castillo, corazón de la ciudad pamplonica.
También conoceremos el Ayuntamiento de Pamplona, lugar donde se celebra el anual “txupinazo” de las fiestas patronales de San Fermín y su emblemática plaza. ¿Sabías que ahí se firmó la unión de todo un reino?
A continuación, visitaremos la Iglesia de San Saturnino y pasaremos por una pequeña callejuela donde, aún hoy, se encuentra… ¡munición de catapulta!
Tras esto, subiremos por la antigua muralla defensiva para visitar la Puerta de Zumalacárregui y el Caballo Blanco, uno de los miradores con las panorámicas más bellas de Iruña, hasta llegar a la catedral y a la pastelería Beatriz, donde hablaremos sobre la gastronomía típica.
Tras dos horas y media, nos adentraremos en la emblemática calle Estafeta para finalizar el recorrido en la Plaza de Toros.
You've probably seen the San Fermín running of the bulls on television before, right? That speed, that adrenaline,...
Well, with this visit we want to show you the entire route of the running of the bulls, and tell you everything you need to know to be an expert on the subject.
Origins, history, mythical bull runs, gorings, ...
