This 3-hour walking food tour takes place in Bilbao’s Casco Viejo, led by a local guide born and raised in the city with expert knowledge of the culinary scene. The tour visits five different bars where participants sample 1 to 2 pintxos (Basque tapas) at each location. These pintxos range from traditional recipes to award-winning dishes made fresh upon ordering. Each tasting is paired with a suitable drink, including red wine from La Rioja, Txakoli (a sparkling white wine from the Basque Coast), cider, beer, or water. The guide teaches how to order pintxos in the local style and shares insights into Bilbao’s bar culture, combining stops at both modern and historic bars. The group enjoys five drinks during the tour. Dinner and the drinks are included, but hotel pickup and gratuities are not provided.
