Escape to Bilbao

Bilbao is located within the beautiful Basque Country of Spain. Nestled between mountains, the city serves as the capital of the Biscay province. The city is an in-demand destination for travelers seeking rest and relaxation among the beautiful landscape of the region. Orbitz.com helps travelers find cheap flights to Bilbao that meet their travel needs.

Bilbao Airport

The region is serviced by Bilbao Aiport, located 5 miles north of the city. Most air travel in and out of the airport is domestic, with flights to international destinations occurring infrequently. Carriers at the airport include Air France, Lufthansa, and Brussels Airlines. Transportation from the airport to Bilbao is available via line 3247 of Bizkaibus for a fee of €1.35.

Bilbao Highlights

Bilbao has something to offer every traveler, from tasty cuisine to ancient architecture.

The city also features a stunning array of churches, such as Cathedral of St. James. The 14th-century Gothic cathedral is a must-see for architecture aficionados.

Weather in the city is different than in the rest of the Basque Country due to its location along the Nervión River. Temperatures are milder, and more rain tends to fall in the city. Freezing temperatures are rare in the winter, and it is uncommon for temperatures to exceed 35ºC in the summer. The summer months from June to September are best for travel, with comfortable temperatures and less rain.
