Special
Festival Programs
The
Fiesta de Sanfermín
is probably the
single most unique, renowned and celebrated
festivals in the world today but sadly, for many
visitors to this historic city in the Pyrenees, the
deeply-rooted traditions and customs of the region
may go unnoticed, or even misunderstood.
For this reason,
Iberian
Traveler and
the Peña
Seattle, along with
its friends and associates at Servicios Turisticos
ERREKA S.L./Incoming Navarra, offers a series of
special San Fermín Festival programs which
will help you enjoy the cultural aspects of this
unique religious, family oriented cultural festival
in the heart of Navarra.
