Bilbao is quickly becoming famous as one of the best places for tapas in Spain, and there's no wonder why. In this rapidly changing city you can taste a blend of old traditions and avant-garde cuisine, creating a unique tapa experience. On the Bilbao Tapas Tour, we'll first get a feel for the raw materials used in the Spanish kitchen and in local dishes, then sample a variety of the pintxos ("tapas" in Basque) that Bilbao has to offer.

An industrial city during the 20th century, this capital of haute cuisine is a mecca for foodies. Since the Guggenheim opened here, the city been reinventing itself and has gained worldwide attention. In this stylish city you can go from classic to old to avant-garde as you enjoy the newly renovated area along the ría (estuary), which has views of the stunning Guggenheim Museum designed by Frank Ghery. The old part of town, including the "Siete Calles" neighborhood with its new and trendy restaurants will top off your visit.
