BILBAO CAR HIRE REVIEWS
Car hire reviews in Bilbao
With its strikingly modern architecture standing alongside historic centuries-old buildings, Bilbao is a must-see place for anyone exploring the north of Spain. This impressive city is not only a vibrant tourist destination but also the capital of the famed Basque region, which is so uniquely characteristic that you might sometimes feel you're in a different country altogether. Top of most people's sightseeing list is the futuristic Museo Guggenheim designed by top architect Frank O. Gehry which features a superb collection of modern and contemporary art. Almost twice as big as its New York counterpart, this state-of-the-art museum complex houses one of the world's most important art collections. The Museum of Fine Arts (Museo de Bellas Artes) is another of Bilbao's first-rate cultural attractions with an outstanding collection of works by European masters from the 14th-17th centuries, as well as many rare Romanesque and Gothic sculptures. Full of old-world charm, Bilbao's historic centre (the Casco Viejo) has many top landmarks, such as the Baroque St Nicholas Church built in the 14th century. Nearby lies the Bilbao Basque Museum depicting the long history and fascinating culture of this beautiful region with many other key exbibits focusing on the area's archaeology and ethnography. There's no better way of experiencing everyday life in the city than a visit to Ribeira Market (Mercado de la Ribera), the largest of its kind in Europe. Covering 10,000 square-metres of space, this vibrant market hall is bursting with high-quality Basque culinary products right in the heart of Bilbao's fine-dining district. And you can't leave Bilbao without taking a ride on the Artxanda funicular railway up Mount Artxanda on the edge of town. Opened in 1915, the journey takes three minutes and promises the best panoramic views of Bilbao and beyond. Bilbao is the natural base from which to start a tour of the Basque region, which boasts a full list of attractions and many interesting places to see. Don't miss the amazing city of San Sebastian (located 66 miles due east of Bilbao) with its lovely beaches and pleasant crescent-shaped bay before enjoying a leisurely drive through the verdant Rioja wine region, dropping in on some of its famous bodegas to taste and buy the wines en route.
