Discover Biscay's most iconic landscapes on this 6-hour tour from Bilbao, combining the magic of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, the surfing charm of Mundaka, and the history of Guernica.
Exploring the natural and cultural charms of Biscay is an unforgettable experience, and this tour from Bilbao will take you to discover some of the region's most emblematic sites. The first stop is the imposing San Juan de Gaztelugatxe route, a magical enclave known internationally as "Dragonstone" from the Game of Thrones series. Nestled between the sea and the cliffs, you can walk the path up to the hermitage, enjoying breathtaking panoramic views of the Basque coastline.
After this immersion in wild nature, the tour continues to Mundaka, a picturesque fishing village located in the heart of the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve. Famous worldwide for its "left-hand wave" that attracts surfers from all over the globe, you will stroll through its harbor and church, enjoying the viewpoints overlooking the estuary. Finally, we delve into Basque history with a guided visit to Guernica. Here, you can see the symbolic Tree of Guernica and understand the profound historical impact of the bombing that inspired Picasso's world-famous masterpiece.
Starting from the iconic Puppy sculpture at the Guggenheim Museum and including private air-conditioned transportation, this bilingual tour (English and Spanish) offers the perfect balance of cinematic landscapes, maritime tradition, and living history. It is the ideal choice for those wishing to experience the essence of Biscay in a comfortable, dynamic, and enriching day trip.
