Frequently asked questions
what to eat in Bilbao
Pintxos (try gilda or bacalao a la vizcaína) and txakoli wine. Don’t miss tortilla de patatas from a Casco Viejo bar counter.
best time to visit Bilbao
Spring (April-June) for mild weather and fewer crowds. Autumn (September-October) also works, with harvest txakoli.
is Bilbao safe at night
Yes, even in Casco Viejo. Stick to well-lit areas; petty theft is rare, but keep bags closed.
how to get around Bilbao
Walk central areas. Metro is clean and frequent for longer trips; buses cover neighborhoods. Taxis are affordable.
Bilbao vs San Sebastian
Bilbao is industrial-chic with world-class art; San Sebastian has beaches and Michelin stars. Both excel at pintxos.
