What you can expect
This tour takes you on a breathtaking drive along the most spectacular coastal roads of Euskadi, weaving through history, nature, and iconic landmarks before arriving in Bilbao for a visit to the world-famous Guggenheim Museum.
First stop: Gernika
The journey begins in Gernika, a town with a tragic yet powerful history. Bombed by Nazi planes in 1937, this attack inspired Picasso’s legendary painting, capturing the horror and resilience of the Basque people. Your guide will bring the story to life, offering insights into its lasting impact.
Exploring the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve
From Gernika, we head to the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve, a stunning natural estuary protected by UNESCO. Depending on the tides, this landscape transforms completely, offering a unique and ever-changing panorama.
A visit to Mundaka
A charming fishing town, Mundaka is famous for its picturesque port and legendary surf waves. We’ll stop at scenic observatories overlooking the Urdaibai estuary’s mouth, where the views are nothing short of spectacular.
San Juan de Gaztelugatxe: A View Like No Other
Next, we reach one of the most breathtaking coastal enclaves in Spain—San Juan de Gaztelugatxe. If it looks familiar, that’s because it starred as Dragonstone in Game of Thrones. From a stunning viewpoint, you’ll get to admire its dramatic rock formations, crashing waves, and the iconic hermitage perched atop the island. No hiking required—just pure scenic magic.
Bilbao & the Guggenheim Museum
The final stop is Bilbao, where we introduce you to the architectural marvel that is the Guggenheim Museum. Your guide will explain its fascinating design and history from the outside before you head in to explore at your own pace. The entrance ticket is included, so you can dive into the world of contemporary art, marvel at its avant-garde exhibits, or simply take in the unique atmosphere of one of the world’s most iconic museums.
