Overview

Discover the Basque region that surrounds Bilbao called Biscay ( Bizkaia in Basque language) during a full-day trip from San Sebastian. Fall in love with the charming 10th century hermitage of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe and climb its 241 stairs to get to the top and enjoy its magnificent views. Then head to Bilbao (the financial capital of the Basque Country) and get a glimpse of the architectural and traditional beauties of this wonderful city, including Guggenheim Museum (entrance ticket included). All this in one day, and with the convenience of private transportation (pick up and drop off at your hotel) & lunch included in the tour price!

** Due to limited capacity, climbing the 241 stairs to the Gaztelugatxe hermitage is not guaranteed. Instead, you would first visit the town on the Biscayan coast Mundaka, known worldwide for its waves and fishing tradition, and then a stop would be made to enjoy a panoramic view of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe from the viewpoint.

A day in Bilbao

I enjoyed the tour very much. It felt personal due to the small group which was nice. Also, it was not rushed. I was overcharged but it was fixed within five minutes. I would definitely book this company in the future.
Well organized small group trip to Bilboa

This was a lovely and well-organized trip to Gaztelugatxe, Bilbao, and Guggenheim. Our guide, Joselu, was warm, informative, and flexible. It was an intense climb up and down to Gaztelugatxe (be prepared) but with amazing views. The lunch of pintxos and drinks in the old part of Bilbao was delicious and very pleasant. Enjoyed the Guggenheim and we had plenty of time to see all the exhibits there and walk around.
Day trip to Bilboa from San Sebastián

Our guide was personable and informative
Well worth doing a trip to Balboa this way
See things you would miss alone and learn from a local how it is to live in area
Great tour!

The hike to the monastery was the most incredible! The stairs are the easy part - the steep trail down and then back up was difficult so requires being in good shape. Our guide was amazing and made sure we all made it back up! The food was great there as well. Bilbao was nice, would have preferred more time at the museum and less walking in old town because it was very warm- but overall it was a great trip, loved Joselu our guide!
