Viktoras - Typical narrow minded comment from the US
ben - well pretty much what your saying is true although i think the food is good value for such an opportunity for sellers. i came with some veteran san fermin goers and thought it was amazing. The experience is something i will cherish although it will not be my last visit. Im English and was relieved that we were very much out numbered by spanish. This festival is something to be proud of for so many people to come together and it be almost trouble free is a credit to the organisers. The only thing i would say is the police need to clamp down on thieves stealing sleeping revelers possesions! Great Great Great !!!
If you are thinking of coming to our fiestas in July, then I ask you to think again. You may believe that San Fermín is wonderful, but I'm here to tell you the truth. You should stay away! Spend the money on a holiday to the USA instead where you can get much better value for money. Go out and do something better instead.
Here's some other reasons:
• It's too crowded - you can't breathe!
• The prices are far too expensive for food, for drink, for the corridas, for rooms for EVERYTHING! It's a rip-off.
• The places stinks of piss and shit.
• There is trash everywhere.
• Always somebody wants to rob you, to rip you off or to take your money.
• The encierro has become a comedy - a national disgrace. It's a show full of drunken clowns.
Trust me, don't come to Pamplona. There are much better things to see in the world.
