Overview

Participants start the day traveling from San Sebastian to San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, where they hike for about an hour and a half along the rocky path up to the hermitage overlooking the Cantabrian Sea. After the hike, the group continues along the coast to Bilbao. Here, travelers walk for around three hours through Bilbao’s Old Town, visiting Arenal, Barria Square, the Arriaga Theater, and La Ribera Market. There is time to try traditional Basque pintxos and drinks, though lunch is only included in the small group tour option. The tour concludes with a guided visit to the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao. Visitors spend approximately 90 minutes inside the museum, where tickets and an audio guide are provided if that option has been selected. The tour uses private air-conditioned transport throughout the day, and hotel pickup and drop-off are included only in the small group option. Tickets to San Juan de Gaztelugatxe are included for all tour options. The total duration of the day trip is about nine hours.
