"What a great way to (re)acquaint yourself with Bilbao and experience the local food and drink culture. Tour was at a very busy time, Friday evening at 19:00, but our great guide Laura knew exactly where to go and also gave us a lot of information about the city and life in the city. We really enjoyed it and Laura gave us a lot of great tips for the coming days. Really a super enthusiastic and involved guide! Thanks!!"
"Jessica was presented with an insurmountable task. There was 100,000 drunk Englishman in old town Bilbao. she addressed the situation and with calm and control gave us an exemplary foodie tour. She held our attention as if there was a serene surrounding. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. She gave no excuses for the environment and when the tour was over, we were completely satisfied and amazed. Thank you DH."
"Mable was extremely knowledgeable, interesting and a delight to be around. She brought us to various places where we savored local experiences while learning about Bilbao culture and history. Highly recommended! "
"This must not have been easy for Mabel, as this was my 10th visit to Bilbao. But; Mabel surprised me, in a very pleasant way, still. I learned so many things about the city, its history, the Basque culture and history, the Guggenheim and the local football team, I got even more excited about this great city with great people. Mabel checked in many times what we would want to see, hear or taste next and had on everything original suggestions. If you want to truly understand the city, its people and have some phenomenal pinxchos: call Mabel! One ‘critical’ note though, the tour is expensive, but as they say, quality comes with a price!"
"Oh, it's definitely the best way to discover Bilbao! Thanks, Jessica - а well planned tour, spiced up with interesting information about history and culture, and seasoned with original local pintxos and drinks! Would recommend to everyone!"
"Rune took us to a good mix of pinxtos bars, each with a variety of options. He pointed out the typical local, and the "don't miss" options. Between stops, he was also very knowledgable about the local area and provided a good and interesting city tour. He was a great guide, and the personel introduction we got to Bilbao and pinxtos was well worth the price. Also we t to restaurant he recommended for lunch the next day, and had a great meal."
"This was our first visit to Bilbao and Joseba was the perfect guide. His communication prior to meeting made it easy for us - 4 NYers. We had a nice mix of history, culture and food. "
"Jesica is a star. Super friendly, great guide and knows all the best food spots in Bilbao. We are veterans of food tours and this is right up there as one best we have done. "
