San Fermin - The Running Of The Bulls Pamplona

Tour Itinerary - 6 Day Party

Day 1 - Tuesday 4th July 2006
Depart London
Check in at Paddington Station, Eastbourne Terrace at 10:30am for the 11:00am departure to Dover.

Day 2 - Wednesday 5th July 2006
Pre Pamps party day at Estella
We enter Spain after dawn. Climb the Basque Pyrenees and then drive around Pamplona onto our base at Estella (about 35km from Pamps). We arrive at our terrific camping ground in plenty of time to work on our suntans by the pool. Maybe spend the day in the medieval Estella township or get into the San Fermin atmosphere at the camp's bar (which by the way, hardly ever closes). There's no need to worry about putting up the tents as they'll be up when you arrive.

Tonight is our famous Pre-Pamps Party at Estella. Pamps legend Steve "Idiot" Werren will again perform life at the camp, always a sensational night and sure to get us all in the fiesta spirit.

Day 3 - Thursday 6th July 2006
San Fermin Opening Day!
Now the serious fun starts! After breakfast we transfer you into Pamplona with plenty of time to get your position for the traditional midday Champagne opening ceremony. At noon the rocket goes off and the fiesta really begins ... look out its sangria time! The party atmosphere in Pamplona this afternoon is truly incredible and you'll be right in the middle of it. We provide free transfers back to the camp from Pamplona until late in the evening.

Day 4 - Friday 7th July 2006
First Running of the Bulls
Feeling brave? You'll need to be because at dawn our coaches roll into town for the first running - as always - on the 7th of the 7th. We offer juice on the way into town early each morning to try to have you in condition to take on those huge beasts. After the run you can choose to head back to camp to recover in the sun by the pool or continue to rage in town all day. We offer breakfast (cereals, eggs, fresh fruit, juice, tea, coffee) all morning back at the camp - and you can have as much as you like! Free shuttles operate to and from the camp again until late in the evening.

Day 5 - Saturday 8th July 2006
Running of the Bulls again!!
Here we go again. Up early for another bash at those bulls. Maybe you're a little weary - well relax by the pool. We will be again serving breakfast all morning. .

The coaches depart for London Mid Afternoon

Day 6 - Sunday 9th July 2006
Back to London
After an overnight journey through France we catch a morning ferry from Calais back to Dover then onto London, arriving early afternoon.

Camping Lizarra, Estella
Approx 30 minutes by coach from the city and has excellent facilities including a bar (that hardly ever closes!), restaurant, shop, regularly cleaned toilets and showers plus a huge pool. Estella itself is a large typical Spanish village with it's own bustling nightlife and sights. Definitely worth a visit.
