Pamplona - July 11-12th

Posted by on

We are scheduled to be in Pamplona arriving July 11th. We have tickets for the bullfight that night and then will experience the "running of the bulls" the next morning before departing the madness for San Sebastian. I have researched these "windows or balcony for rent" for viewing of the running of the bulls and would be interested to know if any of you have experience with this. Do you recommend it as a way to get an elevated view away from the crowds or not?

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

I've been to Pamplona but not during the running of the bulls. A friend of mine ran it. He said it's a complete zoo at ground level. The first morning he was on the course preparing to run and officials decided there were too many runners. They used a movable fence to literally push a whole section of runners off the course. I think you would want a view to be able to see anything. Afterward you can walk around and enjoy the crowd. As I recall, the bars show that morning's run over and over again on TVs.
