But since we consider that, like most medium-sized cities, it is not enough for a three-day visit, we recommend that on the second day you take the car and go see the surroundings. By…

3 days – 2 nights Navarra with children

We are going to try to strike a healthy balance between what the little ones and the older ones like, because we think that parents also have to enjoy the trip.
