Bilbao

Bilbao

With its awesome mix of charming tradition and fresh modernity, Bilbao is known as the cultural heart of the Basque Country.

It's one of Europe’s most exciting cultural cities, where world-renowned architecture meets Basque traditions, fantastic food, and a city that vibes with excitement and intrique day and night.

Home to the one of the world's most famous contemporary buidlings, the Guggeinheim Museum Bilbao shimmers next to the Nervión river which runs through the city. It's surrounded by quaint streets and historic buildings, providing a fantastic mix of modern and old.

Like to walk around and work up an appetite? This is the place to do it! Pinxtos (small bites Basque style) bars will make sure you have a selection of seafood, meat and vegetable dishes, while award winning restaurants can give you something a little extra.

And if all that isn't enough, you can explore the vibrant neighbourhoods, the mountain trails, or even take in a football match at the Estadio San Mamés.
