Wonderful pinxtos and wines — all explained in depth. Excellent guide. Highly recommend. - This walking tour was a delight. Eduardo is a food enthusiast whose knowledge is deep and passionate; he enjoys sharing it with others— he could answer every question and if he didn’t know, he said so; then sent me the information with links after the tour! This was characteristic of the day. He wanted us to have a great time and we did. I highly recommend this walking tour. Excellent pintxos, wonderful wines— all explained beautifully. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Amazing tour - highly recommend! - Jose was an incredible guide - one of the best I’ve ever had! Super friendly, knowledgeable, passionate. We tried a variety of pintxos and wine (and one cider), learned about the local culture, some history of Bilbao etc. **Cannot recommend this tour enough!!** Thank you for a super memorable evening, Jose!

Great tastes an a rainy day - Very fun and informative tour for foodies. Eduardo was extremely well informed and passionate about the local dishes, including flipping through his notebook to describe how he made the same dishes we tasted! Great variety of food and drinks, learned a lot.

Excellent guide,tasty food, great drinks and a super experience - Excellent guide who took us to five different bars/restaurants where we tasted six different tasty dishes we had never experienced before and would probably never have selected ourselves. The drinks selected to accompany the dishes were superb.

Great tour - would recommend - Our tour guide was great and happily answered all of our questions - no matter how random! The tour included a variety of drinks and pintxos that we otherwise wouldn’t have tried. We would definitely recommend and would also recommend doing it early on in your trip.

Great food tour - Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, providing fascinating insights into the local food culture and history. The selection of pintxos was exquisite, with each bite offering a burst of flavors and creativity. We started with traditional pintxos, then moved on to more innovative creations, all paired perfectly with a variety of local drinks. We savored the finest Rioja wine, with its rich and robust flavor, followed by the crisp and refreshing Txakoli, which was a delightful surprise. The Basque cider was another highlight, with its tangy and slightly effervescent taste that complemented the food perfectly. To top off the tour, we indulged in a decadent cheesecake that was simply heavenly. The creamy texture and rich flavor were the perfect end to an amazing gastronomic adventure. Each restaurant had its own unique ambiance, and the hospitality was warm and welcoming. This tour is a must-do for anyone visiting Bilbao who wants to experience the best of Basque cuisine and culture. I cannot recommend it highly enough!

Good tour and good food - Nice tour of the old town and my guide was lovely and very informative. Had to change from the 12 o’clock tour to the evening which wasn’t ideal but still a nice way to see some of the city and the food and drinks were all very good. Would recommend:)
