Best Time to Visit Bilbao

Spring 2026
Bilbao is a year-round mild destination, with spring weather transitioning from cool to mild, making it increasingly ideal for exploring the city. Temperatures ascend from a cool 14°C (57°F) in March to a pleasant 20°C (68°F) by May. This is a very green period due to frequent but often light rain showers. The latter part of the season is defined by increasing cultural activity; the city prepares for its major summer events, and the parks become lush. The weather is perfect for walking along the Nervión River and appreciating the reflective surfaces of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao without the full intensity of summer crowds. The gentle warmth makes this a superb shoulder season for visiting.
Show All
Summer 2026
Bilbao's summer weather is characterized by consistently mild and comfortable average temperatures and significant humidity. The average temperature during this season rarely exceeds 25°C (77°F), making it a refuge from the extreme heat found elsewhere in Spain. The air is often moist, and while rainfall is lower than the rest of the year, overcast days are common. The latter part of the season sees the city at its most vibrant for local activities: the Semana Grande festival in August brings nine days of non-stop music, dancing, and Basque traditions. This is the peak tourist season, appealing to those who want coastal proximity and an active atmosphere without the scorching heat.
Show All
Autumn 2026
With the return of oceanic influences, the local autumn weather brings a distinct period of cooling and increased humidity. Autumn temperatures gradually retreat from a mild 22°C (72°F) in September to a cool 14°C (57°F) by November. The latter part of the season is characterized by a strong focus on Basque gastronomy; the cooler, wetter weather is ideal for enjoying the warmth and atmosphere of the local pintxos bars. Rainfall increases significantly, especially in late autumn, which is one of the wettest periods of the year. However, the stable temperatures of early autumn provide a perfect opportunity to explore the historical Casco Viejo and its numerous markets.
Show All
Winter 2026/2027
Winter weather is mild and humid, offering a stark contrast to the cold, dry inland regions of Spain. Average daytime highs in January, the coldest month, hover around 13°C (55°F), with night temperatures rarely dropping below 5°C (41°F). The latter part of the season is characterized by a high frequency of rainfall and cloud cover, meaning fewer hours of direct sun. This is the low season for tourism, which means travelers benefit from the lowest hotel rates and can enjoy the city's world-class indoor attractions, such as the Guggenheim and the Fine Arts Museum, with minimal queues. The cool, quiet atmosphere is perfect for focusing on indoor cultural heritage.

Reviews for Bilbao Tours

B
20-Day Spain and Portugal Discovery Tour·Lisbon, Madrid, Granada, Seville and Barcelona | Meals Included

What a whirlwind Iberian tour! Everything was arranged perfectly — from flights to hotels to train rides. Customer service was incredibly responsive, even in the evenings when I had a question about a connecting train. The itinerary balanced guided tours with free time perfectly; I loved strolling Porto’s riverside, hiking near Logroño, and exploring Seville’s Gothic cathedrals. The CEO-led walks gave us great orientation and context. Hotels were cozy and central, making each city easy to explore on foot. This trip made it so easy to immerse myself in Spain and Portugal without stress.

7-Day Spanish Bliss end Barcelona Tour from Madrid

Perfect Mix of Cities and Nature

I loved that this wasn’t just about the big city tours. We got coastal beauty in Santander, historic sites in Tordesillas, and modern vibes in Bilbao. The Gothic Quarter in Barcelona was the cherry on top—so atmospheric at night.

15-Day Grand Spain & Portugal Discovery: From Madrid to Lisbon and Andalusia’s Treasures

This was one of the most organized tours I’ve ever taken. From Madrid to Lisbon, every day brought something memorable—wine tasting in La Rioja, the cliffs of Santander, the Alhambra in Granada, and the sunset views in Lisbon. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and always ready to help. The support team on the platform was amazing—they responded 24/7, whether it was about optional activities, hotel upgrades, or small questions along the way. Transportation was comfortable, hotels were well located, and the itinerary was incredibly well thought out. Truly an unforgettable Iberian adventure!

FAQs about Bilbao Tours

How do I get from Bilbao Airport (BIO) to the city center using public transit?

Take the Aeroplan bus from outside Terminal 1 - it runs every 15 minutes from 5:30 AM to 11:30 PM, arriving at Plaza Circular in 15 minutes. A one-way ticket costs €1.05 (as of 2024). Alternatively, Line 3 of the metro connects nearby Casco Viejo station via a short transfer at Ansio.

Is the Bilbao City Pass worth it for first-time visitors?

Yes, if visiting multiple attractions. The Bilbao City Pass includes free entry to the Guggenheim Museum, free public transit (metro, buses, funiculars), and discounts at 15+ sites. A 72-hour pass costs €34 and pays for itself with just two major visits plus transit savings. Ideal for 2–3 days of touring.

What's the best time of year to visit Bilbao for mild weather and fewer crowds?

Visit between May and June or September to October. These months offer mild temperatures (15-22°C), minimal rainfall compared to the wetter winter and spring peak, and fewer tourists than in July-August. Bilbao’s maritime climate means rain can occur year-round - pack a light rain jacket.

Can I use euros at museums and restaurants in the Abando and Casco Viejo districts?

Yes, euros (€) are the official currency in Bilbao. All museums, restaurants in Abando, Casco Viejo, and across the city accept cash and card. Some pintxo bars in Casco Viejo may have a small discount for cash payments. Credit cards are widely accepted, but carry some euros for small purchases.
