The Basque identity
Biarritz, Bayonne, Saint Jean de Luz: the must-sees of the French Basque Country!
Can you name the 3 provinces of the Basque Country on the French side?
These are the provinces of Labourd, Basse-Navarre and Soule. Each of these regions has its own characteristics. Labourd includes the “flagship” towns of the Basque coastline such as Biarritz, Bayonne and Anglet, but also, when you go inland, you’ll discover more authentic villages with traditional-style houses. Nafarroa is the region that has retained the most external influences (French, Navarrese and English), a variety that is reflected in its architecture. Finally, Soule is the smallest of the three provinces, and is perhaps the most traditional, with its topography, its forests and its shepherds… Three provinces, therefore, characterised by a great shared asset: the Basque identity. This identity is forged by its own culture (language, gastronomy, sports, etc.) but also by ancestral traditions and an exceptional cultural heritage.
This holiday to the heart of the Basque Country will show you how deeply the Basque identity is rooted, not only in the local way of life, but also and above all in the mindset of an entire people! Basque Country package tour
