Overview

The only Food and photography expert-led PINTXO TOUR in Bilbao. Join me for a walking, photographing, eating & drinking experience you'll never forget! We'll visit 5 different bars for a glass & a pintxo (sophisticated Basque tapa) at each one. It's a full meal & exactly what the locals like to do. You'll BE A LOCAL with me! Along the route, I'll show you the sites & tell you about the history & culture of the Basque Country, we will visit the RIBERA MARKET but my focus is definitely on FOOD & DRINK. My route & the menu changes daily, but we'll do a mix from the traditional to the modern. Expect to eat anchovies, octopus, bacalao in pil-pil sauce, squid, foie gras, local cheese... and ending of course, with a traditional dessert. Thirsty? I'm great at pairing the perfect pour with the perfect plate, from local ciders to white wine (txakoli), young & aged Tempranillo​ from La Rioja, beer & beyond maybe we'll dip into some vermouth too? Or want to try our local drink Kalimotxo?

Absolute Must!

Published on Nov, 2024

Awesome food tour with an even better guide. Besides food and drinks you will also learn a bit about history of Bilbao, Basque country and their traditions. I can't recommend it enough!

Best Food Tour in Bilbao

Published on Sep, 2024

Our food safari with Oihana was an outstanding kick off to our Basque Country experience. We like private tours so that we can really connect with our guide and always want to tour with a local. She picked great places, is tons of fun, and has so much to share about Bilbao and the entire area. Highly recommend Oihana and her tours.

An excellent tour of Bilbao, covering its history, pintxos and local drinks.

Published on Sep, 2024

It was an excellent tour of Bilbao covering both history, pintxos and local drinks. Oihana spoke excellent English and was clearly passionate about her home town and all it has to offer. We highly recommend her tour.

So very thankful for...

Discover Basque Country

Published on Nov, 2023

Had a great private tour with Oihana! She’s very knowledgeable but most of all very passionate about Basque culture and the local cuisine. Food tour is a must have booking in my itinerary as it let’s you to discover more than you normally would on your own.
