We are the original "Bilbao Food Tour" having pioneered the idea in the city starting in 2014 with our website: bilbaofoodtour.com


We will visit 5 bars and sample pintxo styles ranging from traditional to modern. Your guide will pair each tasting with an excellent wine that compliments the pintxo. Wines that we recommend include red wine from La Rioja, Txakoli (a lightly sparkling white wine from the Basque Coast), and more!
