Hi everyone and ongi etorri, meaning welcome to the Basque Country. My name is Pedro, Basque licenced official guide ID GHP 00104 and it would be a pleasure if you let me show you this proud and gorgeous land where the sceneries are breathtaking, the cuisine is worldwide known and people really nice!!!!. I was born and raised very close to Bilbao, at the mouth of the river 52 years ago, and always lived here but for a year I lived in UK to finish my Marketing and Public relations degree, after three years studying in Bilbao. Passionate about the Basque Country essences, tradition, and hikes I became a professional and licensed tour guide in 2014, when I decided to change my life around and start doing what I really enjoyed, showing my city to the travelers visiting us, as if they were my friends. Basque Country means everything to me, history, people, architecture, tradition, sports, cuisine. . . . this is a unique place in the world to discover, with incredible contrast, with the mountains ending at the wild Cantabrian sea hitting the cliffs creating really picturesque sceneries. I want to show you the landscapes, the culture, the history, the architecture, and of course, the incredible gastronomy we enjoy daily . . . . let's hike the coast, the forests, the mountains, discover the delicious pintxos, the wine, and have some fun. I offer tours in English and Spanish, and I also do design-tailored tours, so feel free to ask for the places and activities you want to enjoy, after all, traveling is just having an amazing experience, let's get some!

Discover the tempranillo world
Overview of your Bilbao tour
Tempranillo and oaky flavor is the first memory coming to my brain when I think of this amazing land, called Rioja Alavesa because it is still part of the Basque territory . If you think Spanish wine, your first thought will most likely be Rioja. This area in northern Spain is the most well-known of all the Spanish wine producing regions, and this tour will not only reveal the spectacular scenery, towns and villages, but will give you an insight into the various different vineyards and the variety of wines created here. I do consider myself a foodie, so every single year, during the harvesting time I visit the area for a weekend with my wife. I discovered that the most special wine tasting experience is given by the smallest ones, where they feel passion about what they do. We will visit the area, and the wineries Ready for the experience?
Your Bilbao tour itinerary
We will set off at 930 from your hotel , to drive to the south during aprox 90 minutes, and during our trip we will discover how the scenery are changing from green and rocky area to a flat area where the vineyards are going to start appearing.
