This is my shortlist of pintxos tours for eating like a local in Bilbao, most looping through the old town and Plaza Nueva. Pintxos culture has rules: one or two bites per bar, a small drink, then move on. A guide who knows the counters saves you from ordering blind.
Discover the Basque Coast with this full-day tour featuring Gaztelugatxe, Bermeo, Mundaka, Gernika, and wine tasting—perfect for culture and scenery lovers.
