5.00From the moment it started, it felt like being shown around the city by a friend who knows every secret, every story and every perfect pintxo bar. The guide was incredible…warm, funny, and packed with knowledge. I learned so much about Bilbao’s history and culture without ever feeling overwhelmed. And the pintxos? Amazing. Every stop felt thoughtfully chosen, with beautiful wines that paired perfectly. I tried things I never would’ve ordered on my own and loved every single one. It was the perfect mix of food, culture, and fun. If you’re visiting Bilbao, this tour is absolutely unmissable. I would do it again in a heartbeat!

5.00We went to five places to experience different wine pintxos and wine pairings. Both the food and wine were excellent. Our guy Jack was extremely knowledgeable about not only the food, but the customs and history of the Basque area.

5.00This was a great introduction to the food of Basque country and our guide was informative and knowledgeable. Pintxos at different bars/cafes/restaurants paired with different wines, each separated by a walk around the streets of Bilbao was very enjoyable!
