French & Spanish Basque Coast Car-Free
Cross the border from Biarritz to San Sebastián and Bilbao, connecting the Basque coast by train and bus.
The Basque Country is divided by a national border, but this route connects both sides: the beaches of Biarritz, the historic streets of Bayonne, and Saint-Jean-de-Luz, followed by San Sebastián, Hondarribia, and Bilbao across the border. The route is easily completed using local buses and narrow-gauge railways. Perfect for food lovers who prefer not to drive, bypassing inland French mountain villages and Spanish wine regions.
