Description

Today, let’s take a look at Saint Jean de Luz; nestling in the heart of a vast bay between ocean and mountain, this privateer town has developed while preserving its identity. Although the days when whalers ventured off the coast of Newfoundland are long gone, the town still boasts a pretty fishing port. Its pedestrian streets linking the ocean to the historic center and its old mansions bear witness to the fortunes of 17th-century shipowners, and preserve the memory of the Sun King, who married here in 1660. Located between Biarritz and the Spanish border, the fishing port of Saint-Jean-de-Luz, on the edge of the Atlantic, offers both the charm of the Basque country and beautiful beaches.

Professional Tour Guide

Patrick H.
Patrick H.

My name is Patrick. I am Parisian, although I come from a family from Britanny (from the Côtes d’Armor). I have been passionate about my city for several years and I love to help people discover it. I have this need to share, perhaps this is the logical continuation of being a father and also a teacher in university. During the first part of my life I travelled the world, I loved it and I was grateful to all those friends who made me discover their country. Today I am making the same thing happen by taking people on a tour of my city. I love history, so you won’t escape a historical contextualization during your visit, I love architecture, so I will introduce you to our monuments and architectural styles, I love art, so let’s find it everywhere it is, in museums, but also in the street, I love our gastronomy and our art of living, so I will make you discover all my good spots.
