Enjoy the incredible landscapes of the Basque Coast with this 5-hour excursion. You will see the Colgante Bridge in Getxo, the hermitage of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, surrounded by the sea, the fishing village of Bermeo and the Gernika Village. You will not miss the Urdabai Biosphere Reserve along the Mundaka coast or the Casa de Juntas de Guernica: a tour where the nature will be the essential attraction.

The tour departs at 08:40AM from the center of Bilbao. While on the left bank of the river are the industrial towns of Barakaldo, Sestao and Portugalete, we will go along the right bank until we get to Getxo.

We will reach the famous Hanging Bridge once we arrive in Getxo, where we will make a brief stop for those who want to go over the bridge in order to enjoy its breathtaking views. We continue the tour passing by the imposing 45 meter-high Castle Butron as well as by Mungia. From here we head for the coast until we get to San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, a beautiful chapel clinging to a rock and surrounded by the sea. We will continue along the coast to Bermeo. Once we have walked through this typical fishing village, it will be time for going by the coast to Mundaka. Here can enjoy its beauty and magnificence, delighted by views of the Biosphere Reserve of Urdaibai. The next and last stop in this tour is the town of Gernika, where we will visit its famous Opera House and Tree Boards.

We will go back to Bilbao through the inland area of Bizkaia, watching its beautiful views. The coach will leave you there at about 2PM.
