Bilbao Where to hike from Bilbao
Posted: Tue October 20, 2009 02:13 AM UTC
I am planning a trip starting in Bilbao. After a couple of days at the museum, I'd like to hike along the north coast, west of Bilbao. I've already hike the camino a few times and would like to experience the north coast.

Are there any trails (routes) similar to the Camino trail that follow the north coast?

Bilbao Bilbao apartments / self catering
Posted: Sun May 31, 2009 10:13 PM UTC
Hi VT folk

I am coming to Bilbao in July for a week to attend the music festival and check out the sights. I really don't want to stay in a hotel room for a week as i and my girlfriend normally rent apartments when we go anywhere for more than a couple of days. I have been searching the Web but am really struggling to find any apartments or rental sites. Anyone got any advice or tips? Hotels rooms are so cramped so defo want self catering for the week.

Thanks

Nick

Bilbao Bilbao vs. Sevilla
Posted: Fri February 13, 2009 09:18 PM UTC
I'd like to study abroad in Spain for Spring 2010. I've narrowed it down to Bilbao or Sevilla. What are your opinions for pros and cons on both? Weather? Culture? Transportation? Student/night life? Food?

I like Bilbao because it's a smaller city/program, has great public transportation, and a better university.

I like Sevilla because it feels more romantic and "Spanish". There's also the famous Spring festivals.

Thanks for your input!

I have got flight from Bilbao airport but I would like to avoid paying for parking space near the airport. That is why I am looking for a free parking space (maybe near the beach or anywhere, where I could leave my car for a one week. I do not the city so if you give me any addresses, names of the streets where I could leave the car without fees etc)
Also if is it possible and can you give me some tips how to get the airport after living a car I will be grateful
I will be grateful for any advices

Hey,
I am traveling between Bilbao and Porto. I have been unable to find any reasonable transportation choices between these two cities. Does anyone know of an easy way to travel between these two cities. I would also be interested in traveling out of a city around Bilbao if that would make it easier. Thanks for the help!

Bilbao Bilbao to St. Jean Pied de Port (FR) - Transportation choices
Posted: Sat March 8, 2008 06:07 PM UTC
We are looking for transportation choices (bus, train or ??)from Bilbao to the beginning of the Camino trail at St. Jean Pied de Port. The ALSA website doesn't seem to list any bus itineraries from Bilbao that include our pilgrimage access point. I also had some trouble in looking up a single ticket by train.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

We will be going to Bilbao on the P&O mini cruise from Portsmouth on 15th August. (It's really just to see whether I have sea legs...) We will only have a Friday morning to spend in the area. Does anyone have any tips about the excursion that P&O offer to Bilbao, or if there is anything else of interest in the area that we can do in about 3 or 4 hours?
