2023 Running of the Bulls Balcony Rentals

We used Bucket List Events for our trip to Pamplona July 2022! It was unreal!! The team did such a good job with everything and everyone was so friendly. We have already told all of our family and friends about Bucket List Events. They made the trip effortless for us! The balconies we had to watch the opening ceremony and running with the bulls were LEGIT! My husband ran and said it was the trip of a lifetime! Thank you Bucket List Events!!

Toby & his crew were AWESOME!!! The Running with the Bulls experience was well worth the pandemic wait. From the history to the parades to the food to the architecture to the people to the music to the total vibe - EVERYTHING WAS PHENOMENAL!!

An amazing experience we could not have had without BLE. We thought about just "winging it" and do the run on our own but decided to give BLE a shot instead, a great decision! Toby was great on several phone calls to help us decide and supportive in communications after we decided and prepared for our trip. When we got to Pamplona the hotel was wonderful, the welcome by the BLE staff was more than we had hoped for - they made us feel comfortable from the start. The support the staff provided was top notch. We would highly recommend BLE!

We used Bucket List Events for our trip to Pamplona for San Fermin Festival (Running with the Bulls). Toby and his team did an absolutely outstanding job! I cannot say enough good things about this entire trip from start to finish. The add-on of a few days in San Sebastian was exquisite with another great walking tour including delicious local cuisine. Bucket List Events definitely made this the trip of a lifetime!

Great knowledge of Pamplona, the runs, local hot spots! Super fun group with much experience running and managing tours - the apartment locations for San Fermin are EPIC.

This is a must do festival. We could not have experienced what we did without bucket list...they are so knowledgeable and make the entire trip stress free. Definitely do the add on to San Sebastián ...that beach was amazing❤️❤️❤️

I randomly picked this group off the internet and hit the jackpot. They corresponded with me with details up to the date of our event. They were always available on the telephone for my questions. Very organized. A great way to see an event and let someone else handle the details. Wonderful, friendly staff. Will use this group again. Highly recommend!

Had an amazing time! As a person who wanted to experience this very old tradition this company did everything I would have expected and much more. The staff’s energy and optimism throughout the several days I was in Pamplona was what made the trip so special. Thank you!!

Great time in Pamplona for the Running of the Bulls. Toby and team were very knowledgeable about the city and the festival. Having a local on the team was awesome. We will book with Bucket List again!

This was my first experience with Bucket List Events and it was wonderful. The team was well organized and readily available. The apartments from which we were able to view the event were perfectly located with plenty of balcony viewing space.  I would recommend Bucket List Events and would participate in another one of their activities. I found the team to be reliable, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. Thanks Bucket List Events!

Toby and his team are amazing! They ensured my husband and I had the best experience possible at the San Fermin festival this year. From the beginning we were happy with the excellent communication during planning and the thoughtful gifts and reminders provided. The team was so much fun and it always felt like a trip with friends. It is clear how passionate Toby and his team are about providing a comfortable experience for everyone. I can’t wait to book with BucketList events again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a great trip without the headache of planning.

We enjoyed the Running with the Bulls event in Spain. Toby and his team were very professional and organized. We laughed a lot and look forward to the next event that we will attend.

Bucket List events did a great job organizing groups for this year's running of the bulls. All of the trolls posting reviews on this page without having actually experienced the company are misplacing their complaints. The San Fermin Festival has been around for centuries. You may have a problem with the event, but don't take it out on Bucket List Events. BLE provided us with excellent information before and during the event. The hotel, the hosts for balcony viewing, the food, the drinks, the coordination for those who wanted to run -- all well organized. I am glad I took advantage of their services rather than trying to go on my own -- I would have never been as successful. They do a terrific job. I would not hesitate to experience another event with them.

I have been to 67 countries and had many wonderful experiences. But Running With The Bulls was an experience of a lifetime that tops all in my book. It had excitement, adrenaline to the max, a touch of danger, lots of constant party and great cuisine from the Mediterranean. I encourage everyone to leave it to the experts to organize your trip. The Bucket List Events did just that.

What an awesome experience to Run with the Bulls. Having a professional team like Toby and his team at your disposal, took the stress and anxiety out and allow me to concentrate on having fun. Even the support leading up to the event, like the monthly updates and easy payment arrangement was great. If you plan to participate in any exciting event, look no further than Bucket List Events to organize it for you. Will recommend them to anybody.

We had an amazing time with Toby and team. They made the experience seamless and smooth. We did 4 days in Pamplona and 2 in San Sebastián. The hotels we stayed at were great! We were thankful to have the hotel in Pamplona away from the party scene. They made sure we had all the information we needed to participate in the bull run safely. The 2 days at San Sebastián were a nice way to end a great and exciting adventure. All the guides were very friendly and responsive. Highly recommend doing the tour versus going on your own. You will get way more out of it. It also takes the stress away from trying to figure out all the logistics. Thank you Toby and team!!

Possible to give more than 5 ⭐️s???!! I can’t say enough great things about our experience with the Bucket List Events team and our time at the San Fermin festival. From the initial outreach to the warm goodbyes and personal messages thanking us within days of us leaving, every detail and task was well thought out as well as thoughtful. We will definitely be back with the help of Bucket List Events!

Bucket List Events exceeded our expectations! We can't begin to explain what a great job they did with the Running of the Bulls. There is simply no way this experience would have been the same had we tried it on our own. Kudos to Toby, Rich, and the entire team. We truly LOVE every minute of it. We are looking forward to doing it again. Highly Highly recommend Bucket List Events!

Always wanted to experience the Running of the Bulls. Toby and his team did a fantastic job and were with us every step of the way to maximize the experience. The balcony locations to see the opening festivities (Chupinazo) as well as the balcony locations on Estafeta Street & Dead Man's Curve were incredible. I highly recommend Bucket List Events.

What an amazing experience! There were so many things to do and see at the Running of the Bulls. Bucket List Events was awesome and gave travelers so many options. THANK YOU! I would go again!

We went to running of the bulls last week and the team at Bucket List Events were very friendly, informative, helpful, and overall made the experience significantly better than we could have had trying to go all by ourselves. They delivered way more than I expected going into it all.

Hands down would easily recommend them for any event they’re offering assistance with. We’re excited to see what other places they can take us to give that top notch experience in another country.

Thanks again guys!

Exceeded my expectations. The staff were very helpful and organized. Everything was well planned to ensure we enjoyed the experience of a lifetime. Will not hesitate to recommend Bucket List Events to others and look forward to booking more experiences with them in the future.

Thanks again Toby and crew, really a top notch experience.

Bucket List Events made the the San Fermin Festival truly a bucket list experience!!! They put us in the BEST hotel. The breakfast and house keeping were amazing, and it is the same hotel the matadors stayed at. They also had some fantastic balconies available for us to view from. Not only from Estafeta street, but also Dead Man's Curve! The staff was always available to answer any and every question, and they were a blast to hangout with! They booked us great dinners and had great recommendations on other places to try. I would definitely recommend booking with Bucket List Events, they go above and beyond to meet every need. It was an amazing experience!

Bucket List Events was amazing and cannot oversell their effort and accommodations during the Running of the Bulls 2019. They absolutely lived up to their name. Toby, Katie, and staff were incredible and would def use them again!!! Absolute ? of a group of people who def make the experience memorable beyond expectations!

They made our trip to Pamplona so easy and unforgettable!! They made sure everyone knew how to safely run with the bulls and keep the bulls safe as well. Highly recommend Bucket List Events!

If you're in to having a good time, not worrying about any aspect of your trip, and making unbelievable memories, then your best bet is Bucket List Events! Running with the bulls was OUTSTANDING!!! Every member of the staff was amazing and extremely accommodating! I had a blast and would HIGHLY recommend Bucket List Events to anyone! Do yourself a favor and get with them for your next trip, you won't be disappointed!

We could not have been more impressed with Bucket List Events during the Running of the Bulls this past summer.  They were knowledgeable, accommodating, fun, and very inclusive. It was an unforgettable experience, with great memories and great people to share it with.

My husband and I ran with the bulls on 7/8/18 and we could not have done it without Toby and his team! Toby is such a cool guy! Very knowledgeable and very easy to be with! They really went above and beyond to give us a once in a lifetime experience! Totally worth every penny we paid for! I HIGHLY recommend Toby and his team for unforgettable once in a lifetime experience!

Toby & co. put together an incredible Pamplona experience for a large group of us. Can’t recommend them enough.

Awesome time in Pamplona with an amazing team from Bucket List. We highly recommend Toby and his team.

A HUGE thank you to Toby & Rich (& all the ladies) from bucket list events... these guys made our run with the bulls experience run so very smoothly..you guys went above & beyond to provide an AWESOME experience.. we had such a blast along the way..meeting beautiful people who loved life . it was a blast meeting you all!!... ???‍♂️?‍♀️??????

Showed great interest in what they were doing & a very fun, personable group! Definitely helped ease the stress of possible goring hahaha! Did take their advice, ran with it & survived ?? Definitely plan on doing Pamplona again! Thanks for a great time Toby & team!

After careful research I chose this group to take 14 of my friends to Pamplona to experience the Running if the Bulls!! Throughout the process Toby was there to answer any and all questions I had for my group. Once we arrived everything was organized and communicated well and had an amazing experience from start to finish! If you are looking for a tour group to use I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company and it’s employees!! Thanks again for such a great trip for me and my friends!!!

Joining Bucket List Events in Pamplona for the San Fermin festival was hands down the best experience I could have ever imagined and then some!!! Toby and all of his team exhibited the highest level of hospitality while showing all of us how to fully embrace the amazing culture in this city and during the festival. I would 1000% recommend anyone planning their travels to Pamplona to reach out to Toby with Bucket List. It will be an adventure you will never forget!!! ¡Viva San Fermin!

Not usually one for organized tour types of things I went against my nature and reached out to Toby for one of the stops on a trip I was taking with my son for his graduation. The main event of the trip was Pamplona and the run. This turned out to be a great decision as the convenience and knowledge that came with Toby and the rest of the team at BucketList Events made the trip all that much better. I can not recommend this event and this team enough. Thanks for your attention and making this a great lifetime memory.

The event of the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain has been on my Bucket List, since I was stationed in Sarajevo, Bosnia back in 1998. Due to timing problems, I never made it to the event.

Then I found BuckListEvents com on line, and after doing some research, I signed up with them. What a great decision on my part. Toby Akins, and his great team organized the whole experience for me (and the others who signed up).

I have to admit that I was apprehensive about getting down on the street and actual running with live bulls. Here is how Toby arranges the experience. I arrived at the hotel in the morning, and I had until 3pm to walk around and sight see Pamplona. At 3pm, I was met in the hotel lobby by the guides (who warmly introduced themselves to me), and given my packet (including my cool Run with the Bulls t-shirt). At 6am the next morning, we walked to an apartment overlooking the street where the bulls ran each morning. So, I got to see from above what the actual run looked like. There were other guests in the apartment, who had been there before the previous morning. Today, they were running. Today, I was observing. After the run, some of the runners came back up, and we were able to discuss their experiences, and I picked up some tips.

Once again Toby and his team absolutely delivered an unforgettable experience. This is the second time we have used this organization and they continue to impress. My friends and I had the pleasure of experiencing the Running of the Bulls festival with Bucket List Events this year and I would easily do it again.

The festival itself is such an amazing time, with the whole town constantly buzzing with high energy and good times. If anyone is thinking of going, please go-go as soon as you can, and when you do use Bucket List Events. They had access to some of the best viewing points of the bull runs and arranged the most fun activities in the evenings.

Besides the festival what made this trip an amazing time was the relentless attention to detail and service provided by Toby and his staff. They are all friendly and helpful and they make you feel like you're on vacation with old friends. They make themselves available day or night and they go above and beyond any expectations you might have. In addition to Toby- who is fantastic, we spent a lot of time with Casey, Kelly, and Techla. Words can't justify how much fun we had with these ladies, what a great crew. Fatima, Adrien, and LaRae are also so friendly and helpful to any and everything you need.

I could go on all day about what a great time with had with everyone, so if you have a chance to have a Bucket List Events experience-take it.

Thanks again Toby and the crew!

The Pamplona Bucket List Event experience was fantastic from start to finish. Starting months before Toby sent information and guides to help you plan, prepare, and of the history of the San Fermin Festival.

The hotel in Pamplona was very comfortable and the away from the craziness going on in the Plaza. We were greeted immediately by friendly enthusiastic people. Our schedule was perfect allowing plenty of free time. The staff was awesome!!! They even found out where we could buy a replacement suitcase for our son as well as bringing him ice packs after he had a “run in” with a bull after his second run that week.

Even though we booked the midweek experience for Pamplona there were people who only had a day or two weaving in and out throughout the week. I was impressed with how Bucket List Event’s was able accommodate them and to give them a full experience.

Toby, you are awesome! We loved your humor and wealth of information, some even useful. :-p Thank you and Kasey, Kelly, Thecla, LeRae, Fatima and Adrienne for making our trip to Pamplona one worthy of going into the record books.

I was very surprised at the quality of service that Toby and his group provided for my wife and I. Running with the Bulls with them was by far the best decision made in terms of planning the trip to Pamplona. I recommend and mention them when i retell my story of running with the bulls.
