Does the Spanish word
fiesta ring a bell? Does the novel by the same name,
one of the great Hemingway's masterpieces? Would you
like to know the city of Pamplona, the festivals and
traditions of which used to inspire the American
writer? Then pack your bags. Because we're inviting
you to the capital of Navarre, Pamplona, where from
the 6th to the 14th of July of each year they have
celebrated the San Fermines, perhaps one of Spain's
most popular festival, the universal character of
which is owed to Hemingway's literary works, being
that he was a passionate admirer of Spanish
tauromachy, an art he understood very well. Since it
is a festival for one and for all, your religion,
race or age makes no difference, and you will also
be able to participate in the bull runs, the morning
run (begins at 8 o'clock) heading down the narrow
813 meters street, and lasting three or four
minutes. But to the volunteers that dare to run in
front of the bulls that short time will surely seem
like an eternity until they make it to the bullring,
where bullfights with the participation of the best
bullfighters in Spain are held at night. In a
nutshell, the impressions that you will take away
from this great popular festival with be
unforgettable.
As unforgettable, of
course, as your visits to Madrid and Barcelona will
be, cities that you'll also be able to visit during
this tour.
