Great bike ride! - What a great way to see Getxo. Our guide was great and kept us moving through our 12 mile bike ride. We had snacks and drinks at the end. Very worthwhile way to spend the morning.

A must for the active day tripper - Pintxos in an authentic, locals watering hole with loads of character and charm. And cycling through town and out on the open spaces and along the promotonries overlooking the ocean gave one fantastic grounding and sense of place, with several water taps along the way. A perfect way to do a self guided day-trip from a cruise ship; it’s a 30 minutes’ walk from the port facility.

Great trip combining sightseeing, exercise, food and drink. - Could not have chosen a better trip to see Bilbao's
Beauty. Our 12 mile trip took us thru very exclusive neighborhoods as well as the original fishing village. We took one of the many funicular. Had a great stop for drink and Pintxos.

Engaging, informative, fun bike ride in Getxo - Miguel was extremely knowledgeable. He speaks 4 languages and has lived in various countries. His English was very easy to understand. We thoroughly enjoyed our bicycle tour of his city. The ride was about 12 miles. When we had a steep climb, he led us to a City elevator that took us and our bikes up about 5 levels. We finished our ride with a pub stop that included complimentary food and drink.

Great View and Pintxos - What a great bike ride. Must do!!! At times my legs were burning from the uphill climbs on the bike lol, but it was all worth it because we got to see amazing views of the sea. My husband and I found the tour enjoyable and a great overview of Getxo, Spain. Half way through the tour we got to stop at a bar, and had local white wine and Pintxos. We got the tortilla espanola and a sandwich and split it yummmmm. Thanks again for a wonderful day.

Great time biking in Bilbao - Really enjoyed touring the seaside of Bilbao. It is so scenic. Miguel's personality and commentary were delightful. I learned much about this amazing Basque city and its culture. The Vizcaya suspension bridge was a terrific sight.

Informative, good value and very fun. - This was a really good tour! Miguel was an excellent guide. I appreciated the way he provided both a historical and political context to the Basque region. It really helped my understanding. The biking itself was a lot of fun. Getxo's infrastructure is very conducive to biking with lots a safe bike paths throughout both the riverfront and the town centre. Getxo's old port was a pleasant contrast from the more modern town centre. If you have extra days in Bilbao, this tour is well worth your time.

Ok tour but a bit far out from Bilbao to get to. - A decent tour. You get to see some really nice places. It’s a bit awkward to get to though if you stay in Bilbao. The tour guide was nice and knowledgeable. He was easy to talk to and answered all questions.
