John Babb, 2024 Pamplona Client

Toby and his entire team (especially Izzy, “Z” and Connor) put together an amazing experience in Pamplona for the Festival. The team was all there in the morning and got us to the square and ready for the run. And despite the sky high expectations for this truly Bucket List experience everything actually exceeded our wildest dreams! The hotel was fabulous and centrally located and just another example of the level of quality and attention to detail that Toby and his team dedicate to everything they do. I can’t adequately express my delight with literally every aspect of the trip and everything Toby and his team did for us, from working around our very late arrival to making every minute enjoyable and special. This experience was worth every penny (and more!) and we will definitely be taking another trip with Bucket List Events. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience made particularly special by your and your team!!

Will Weideling, 2024 Pamplona Client

Joined the Bucket List Events team for two days in Pamplona for the Running of the Bulls 2024. The entire team was great at explaining all of the cultural aspects of the event and also providing great recommendations around the city. The balconies were in great locations and extremely easy to meet up with the group beforehand. Connor, Toby and Dara were all great guides and would highly recommend BLE for the Running of the Bulls or any other events they put on!

Judi Evans, 2024 Pamplona Client

Do not hesitate to book a trip with Bucket List Events…their staff is top notch , from the planning stages, to the event and follow up. We attended Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain, and it was an unforgettable event. The tours, the food, the city but most importantly…the people. They are passionate about their city, their country, their food and it shows in everything they do. Bucket List Events does an excellent job of communication and utilizing these local employees that really improve the overall experience. Thank you all for a job well-done!

Tony Navarro, 2024 Pamplona Client

We had a wonderful time at the Running with the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain. Well organized and the hotel is right near the venue. Bucket list checked off.

Providence Gonzalez, 2024 Pamplona Client

My husband and I had a wonderful experience traveling with Bucket List Events to Run with the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain! The staff and guides are knowledgeable, answered all our questions, and put us at ease (some were from Pamplona which was super helpful!). They truly went out of their way to create an excellent and safe experience for us. Would definitely recommend and use them again!

Ted Tenabe, 2024 Pamplona Client

My 18-year old son and I loved the 2024 Running With the Bulls package – it was the thrill of a lifetime. We started in San Sebastián – the hotel was amazing with views right over the beach. Then we traveled to Pamplona for the opening ceremony and ran the first 2 days of the event, ending in the arena both times. The tour staff was amazing – so helpful and responsive – and the accommodations and food tours were top notch. If you want a first-class experience with knowledgeable and helpful professionals, BOOK THIS EVENT!

Reed Tinsley, 2025 Kentucky Derby Client

The Kentucky Derby has always been on my personal bucket list. My wife bundled my birthday, Christmas present, and our anniversary to send me to the Derby, using Bucket List Events. My experience was FIRST CLASS! Ben was wonderful and horse farm and bourbon tours were excellent. If you have anything on your bucket list, use this company!

Dennis Packard, 2025 Client

My wife and I used them for a Masters trip and our experience was great! The entire team was extremely helpful, attentive and fun to be around. I would not hesitate to use them again for this or any other trip.

Kathy Speybroeck, 2024 Client

Unique experience that was a bucket list item especially for my husband who is an Army Vietnam Vet. Well guided and organized by Connor. The patriotism and reverence by the people who choose to experience is comforting. The outcome of the game was really secondary to the camaraderie exhibited. Loved it!

Jennifer Hill, 2024 Army-Navy Client

Thank you to Connor for overseeing an excellent weekend in Washington DC attending the Army-Navy football game! Connor was an excellent host who provided additional facts and details about the city, the game and other BLE experiences. The accommodations and travel were excellent and we were lucky enough to receive upgraded seating just prior to the game. We will definitely look to BLE for future travel experiences.

Sherman Alter, 2024 Client

The hotel and transportation to DC sites and the Army-Navy game were excellent. Information before and during the tour was very helpful and explained everything that we needed to know. Our guide was knowledgable, friendly, outgoing and concerned about each one of us. He even moved around the stadium (persons were at different locations in the stadium) to confirm that all were doing well. I would use this outfit in the future.

Joan Joyce, 2024 Client

We had absolutely the best time at the Macy’s Day Parade. From beginning to end the entire experience was so well organized, the communication was excellent and the staff were all so helpful. The closer we got to the event I was worried my expectations were too high and we would be disappointed. Our experience exceeded my expectations! We stayed at the W Hotel Times Square, went to see the balloon inflation and watched the floats being assembled, saw The Outsiders and the Rockettes and then seeing the parade while enjoying mimosas and a delicious brunch was better than anything I could have planned for us. We had so much fun we might even do it again!
