Pamplona Tours 2026
What’s the Best Way to Explore Pamplona?
One of the most common questions we hear is, “What’s the best way to see and experience Pamplona?”
San Fermín brings so much excitement to Pamplona that it is easy to get overwhelmed and have so much packed into your schedule that you forget to explore the city or immerse yourself fully in the culture. It’s easy to feel like there’s never enough time to see it all, but going on some of our Pamplona Tours will help ensure you don’t miss out while you are in town!
You can certainly explore the city on your own, wandering the streets, following a map, or checking off suggestions found on Google. But the most authentic and stress-free way to see the sites and immerse yourself in the history and culture of Pamplona is by joining one of the Running of the Bulls Pamplona Tours!

The Bull Run Route Tour
Our most popular Pamplona tour is the Bull Run Route Tour and it follows the exact path the bulls take through Pamplona’s historic streets during the run each morning. This guided tour, available in small groups or as an exclusive private experience, gives you an expert’s perspective on one of the world’s most iconic events.
This tour is guided by none other than Dennis Clancy, the renowned bull-runner featured in multiple documentaries. Dennis brings his expertise to the tour with firsthand insights, explaining key points along the course, the best (and safest) places to start, and what to expect before, during, and after the run!
Each guest receives a headset during the tour to ensure you can hear Dennis clearly and don’t miss a thing! The streets of Pamplona can get busy and hectic, but with the headsets it ensures you get the full experience from the tour.
While this tour is loved by everyone, it is highly recommended for anyone planning to run with the bulls during their trip. It will give you the opportunity to learn the course and see it while the streets are empty, learn where the best starting places are, and get some tips on what to do and what not to do. This information just helps you have a more informed experience to increase safety and fun!

Welcome Tapas & Cathedral Tour
|
On July 5th, right before the fiesta officially begins, Running of the Bulls hosts an exclusive private event only available to those who book San Fermin Travel Packages, and it is a perfect way to kick off your San Fermín experience!
The evening begins with a private tour of Pamplona’s famous Cathedral, which is typically closed to the public during the festival. It’s a rare opportunity to explore this beautiful landmark while you are in the city, that others will miss out on due to the closure during the fiesta. |
|
Following the tour, guests are invited to a reception in the Cathedral’s inner courtyard where tapas will be served along with Navarran Wine. It’s a great time to meet & Mingle with fellow guests, meet the Running of the Bulls team, and ask any questions you may have before the festivities officially begin.
Torero Training & Bull Ranch Tour
|
For those looking for a more immersive and interactive experience, we offer a Torero Training and Bull Ranch Tour that lets you really have a hands-on experience. This tour does take place a little outside of Pamplona and will begin with our Bus picking you up and driving you out the the local Bull Ranch.
Once at the Ranch the real fun begins, you will have the chance to learn how the bulls are raised and cared for and how they are prepared for the run. Afterward, guests have the opportunity to take part in Torero Training, where they step into the ring with a one-year-old vaquilla, a baby bull (under the guidance of a professional instructor). It's a safe way to experience what you see in the cartoons, red capes and all! |
|
To complement the experience, local tapas and regional cuisine are served at the ranch, ending the day with some snacks to help you recover from all of the action! Then of course at the end our bus will drive you back to the hotels!
Private City Tour
If you prefer to explore at your own pace, our Private City Tour is the perfect option. Over the course of three hours, you’ll be paired with an English-speaking guide who will tailor the tour to what you are hoping to get out of it! Whether you’d like a traditional sightseeing experience, an interactive walk through Pamplona’s shops and neighborhoods, or simply someone to help with translation and local recommendations, your guide will customize the experience to fit your style.
This flexible format makes it ideal for both first-time visitors and seasoned travelers. In Pamplona, every street has a story waiting to be discovered, and we cannot wait to show you!
