The attraction of our region stands out for its culture, with important museums such as the Guggenheim, San Telmo, the museum that honours the fashion designer Cristóbal Balenziaga and even the Basque Cider Museum. Likewise, the Basque coast combines beautiful beach and mountain scenery with an extraordinary natural diversity that beckons you to visit. The Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve, the Gorbeia Nature Reserve… are some of the best examples of where to spend a pleasant day walking and enjoying the views.
The Basque Country offers such spectacular destinations that they have been featured in series such as Game of Thrones… Among many others, the grandeur of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, the breathtaking landscape of the Flysch cliffs, the magic of the Bárdenas Reales de Navarra and castles that look like something out of a film, such as Olite, stand out.
Our wide and varied gastronomy, which is home to one of the most prestigious schools in the world, the Basque Culinary Center, is among the best in the whole peninsula. Furthermore, our love of gastronomy is reflected in our Michelin-starred restaurants, as well as in our famous and award-winning pintxos.
On the other hand, our destinations have nearby airports through which thousands of flights pass… Loiu, Foronda, Hondarribia and Biarritz airport await you. Finally, we have a good public transport infrastructure and the capacity to organise large events. Proof of this are several renowned events organised at the Bilbao Exhibition Centre (BEC), such as the internationally prestigious World Machine Tool Fair held every year, and the famous MTV music awards held in the city in 2018.
Without a doubt, the Basque Country is the Basque territory that invites you to stay.
