Hello! Looking for some friendly advice as we move ahead with our flight purchase. Traveling from Vancouver, Canada to Europe to start CF in SJPDP early July.
Debating a flight that bring us to Bayonne (right after Tour de France goes through) where we could have a rest day - or - coming via Madrid and having that rest day in Pamplona (right before Festival San Fermin).
When we walk through Pamplona a few days later we will be in the middle of the festival. We anticipate adjusting our stops to avoid the crowds which probably means missing out on experiencing Pamplona.
Have read many wonderful things about Bayonne, would hate to miss a visit there but it seems we have to choose between the two. Any suggestions?
