Overview

Step into the heart of Basque gastronomy. On this guided pintxos food tour in Bilbao, your local guide brings the flavours, traditions, and stories of the region to life. Sip ice-cold txakoli, our local wine, try premium Rioja wines, and enjoy authentic Basque tapas —los pintxos—prepared in both traditional and modern ways. Our tour offers enough food and drinks so you won’t need to plan for a meal afterwards.

In just three hours, you’ll hop between a curated selection of bars: some well-known favourites, others true local secrets. In a small and intimate group of max. 6 people, you’ll wander the narrow streets of the Casco Viejo, your expert local guide creates a personalised route that guarantees a surprising, memorable, and truly authentic experience. You won’t just explore Bilbao, you’ll become part of our cuadrilla, our circle of friends.
With 6 pintxos and 4 drinks, this is more than a walking tour. It’s a delicious, story-rich deep-dive into Basque culture and cuisine.
