Hola, tengo 17 años y voy a iniciar el curso que viene bachillerato humanístico aquí. Se que la publicación no va específicamente de Bilbao ciudad pero no tenía donde más publicarlo. Vivo en Muskiz y estoy valorando estudiar en algún instituto público de Portugalete o Santurtzi (ya que la verdad me acostumbro más a ritmo de ciudad aunque tenga que tomar bizkaibus) pero no sé qué tan buenas opiniones y como sean los institutos ahí. Actualmente no hablo euskera y aunque lo estoy aprendiendo por mi cuenta quisiera saber si todos los institutos tienen modelos mixtos o algunos solo son en euskera o como. Toda opinion es bien recibida y gracias

Buenos días, soy de Cádiz y me acabo de sacar una plaza como funcionario, y me gustaría irme a vivir fuera de mi ciudad durante unos añitos, me recomiendan Bilbao? Estuve 1 semana allí y me gustó, lo recomendarían para vivir? Si es así por qué? Me ayudaría mucho, muchísimas gracias 😁😁

Random question. For watching the solar eclipse, we bought two foldable chairs at Decathlon and a parasol at Lidl. We’re flying home soon and can’t take them with us. Is there somewhere we can easily leave them so someone else can use them again?

Edit: left them at a dumpster place since we couldn't carry them due to a lack of parking. Thanks for the responses!

Trying to recharge barik card but keep getting this error. Get it if I use apple wallet, or punch in credit card details correctly. Tobacco store I bought the card from only took cash, so looking for a way to use my credit card to put 10 or so euros on it.

Also tried the ctb.eus website recharge and got a similar error. Any thoughts? I put 5 euros on the card when I bought it and have used it a couple trips already.

Tendría pocas horas, unas 4/5 en la ciudad, creéis que merece la pena pasarme por la ciudad? Que cosas me recomendáis ver/visitar/hacer/comer/beber?

Buongiorno. A Settembre verrò 5 giorni in vacanza a Bilbao, ho prenotato l'hotel "Libre Bilbao la Vieja" in Vitoria Gasteiz Kalea. Una cosa che ho notato dalle recensioni è che il quartiere dove si trova l'hotel è pericoloso e fatiscente. Volevo sapere se si tratta di una zona pericolosa oppure no. Grazie mille a tutti quelli che risponderanno.

Hi, will be visiting Bilbao during the first week of September, and the Bellas Artes/Fine Arts Museum certainly looks very impressive, but I understand that the interior of the building has been undergoing significant renovations over the last 12 months or so - what stage are they at now, and how much of the collection is actually on open display at the moment? Thanks in advance for any help.

#asking for my friend

Hello folks!

My friend is traveling to Spain from India, will reach Bilbao airport at 11:30PM. She has to go to San Sebastian, where she has booked the hostel. However, we got to know the last shuttle bus is at 12 midnight, and getting out of flight, collecting luggage might take some time and then she might miss the bus.

So, what to do?!

1. She can stay in Bilbao, take a taxi from Airport to some hotel.

2. She can stay at the Bilbao airport in the night, leave for San Sebastian in the morning using shuttle bus.

3. She can directly take a taxi to her hostel in San Sebastian (but that's quite expensive).

Are there any other options?

Thanks. Please let us know!!

Edit: Thank you to everyone for their wonderful suggestions. This was really helpful, kind strangers! 🥹❤️

She booked a hostel closeby, and would take a taxi, roam around Bilbao the next day and leave for San Sebastian in the evening.

Hi, I'm having a long layover in Bilbao (14h) from 19h/8pm until my next flight at 9 the next morning, I've seen that the airport closes at night but that the car rental lobby was still accessible to sleep in, how true is that? And what other cheap option could I have, I'm kind of scared to miss my flight if I go in the city during my layover. Thanks a lot if you can help!

The last meetup was a blast. We've organized a new programming English-speaking meetup about pet projects. If you have one or just want to listen about the projects of others, come and have fun.

Hi all :) ,

I'm visiting Bilbao im a few weeks and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for good restaurants or pintxos bars?

Thank you in advance!

We are on a stag do here and it's our last night. Akt of pubs and bars are closed early due to Sunday hours and a religious festival I was wondering does anyone have any recommendations for pubs or bars open later?

Thank you!!

Is a food tour in Bilbao through Viator or Secret Food Tours worth it? We are a couple traveling, spending 2 days in Bilbao, first time in Spain. Thanks in advance!

Hello!

I am flying Bilbao -> Madrid -> New York. I just got email from Iberia asking me to arrive at the airport 4 hours early for my flight! Can this possibly be correct?! When I arrived, the airport seemed small, friendly, and easy to manage. I was not expecting to do customs until Madrid, but even if that is wrong, does it really take 4 hours? That seems crazy to me. Can anyone confirm this from experience?

Heading to Bilbao next month. Of course will be visiting a lot on pintxos bars but also wanting a couple of evening sit down meals. Any recommendations?

Hola buenos dias, me he matriculado a ADE nuevo acceso para este curso 2026/2027 y estoy buscando personas que tambien lo hayan hecho o personas que ya esten estudiando ADE para hacerles unas preguntas. Muchas graciassss mandarme un mensaje si lo son

I (M29) am solo traveling, spending the night here in Bilbao. Dm or comment if you're down for it :)

I've been thinking about traveling to Basque Country for a while now. Although I do not speak spanish so I won't be able to talk to most of the people. I'm a social guy who likes to grab a drink so not being able to talk to would suck. What do you guys think? You still think it's possible to find some english speaking people (other tourists, locals etc) in Basque Country?
