Bilbao Classic & Modern
Overview
In a day you will discover medieval Bilbao, Casco Viejo or popularly known as "The Seven Streets", with its cobblestone streets, cantons, squares and charming corners, witnesses of the intense commercial and port activity that made the Villa grow. Its walls, the Gothic cathedral of Santiago, the Plaza Nueva, the emblematic church of San Antón and the ancient ruins on which it sits, or the bustling market of La Ribera welcome more than 500 years of history and an urban vitality for which seems to pass the time.
We will continue the tour of the well-known Ensanche, a key sign of the progress of the Villa. The visit shows the urban development of Bilbao and its architecture from the 19th century to the present day. A look at the pulsating heart of a city that exudes tradition and avant-garde.
The visit ends in the most Bilbao style, we go for pintxos !! (pintxo-pot included in the tour). The pintxo is the 5th essence, a snack of the size of a bite.
