3 Nights – Bilbao
3 Nights – Rioja
4 Nights – San Sebastian
✈️ UK – Bilbao (3 nights): Your exploration of the Basque country will begin in Bilbao, with its avant-garde architecture and vibrant atmosphere. Visit the iconic Guggenheim Museum with its striking titanium-clad design that features artists including Richard Serra and Louise Bourgeois. After immersing yourself in art, take a leisurely stroll through the historic Old Town, where you’ll find pintxos bars (Basque tapas) offering everything from local Idiazabal cheese to jamón ibérico. Also head to the Mercado de la Ribera (one of Europe’s largest covered markets) where you can sample local delicacies and sip your way through crisp Txakoli wines from nearby vineyards. At the end of your stay in Bilbao you’ll pick up your rental car which you will have at your disposal for the rest of the trip.
🚗 Bilbao – Rioja (3 nights): From Bilbao, it’s a scenic drive into the heart of Spain’s most celebrated wine region – Rioja. This area is a dream for wine lovers, with smooth, oak-aged reds made predominantly from the Tempranillo grape. An ideal place to base yourself is in Logroño, the lively regional capital, where an evening on Calle Laurel means hopping from one buzzing tapas bar to the next, indulging in traditional small plates with local wines. Explore the area further by touring the historic bodegas and the more modern wineries. Whether you’re enjoying a bold red in Rioja Alta or exploring the surrounds of Laguardia in Rioja Alavesa, or visiting an intimate, family-run vineyard in the quieter Rioja Oriental, you’ll get a great understanding of the region’s winemaking and food culture.
🚗 Rioja – San Sebastian (4 nights): After soaking up the wine country, you’ll swap vineyards for sea views as you drive north to San Sebastián – often hailed as Spain’s foodie capital. Set on the edge of Concha Bay, this coastal city has reportedly more Michelin-starred restaurants per capita than any other city in the world. But you don’t need to do fine dining to eat well here. The real magic is in the pintxos bars. These offer Basque-style tapas spots where you can hop your way through the Old Town, soaking up the atmosphere and sipping local wine as you go. It’s a little bit like a sophisticated pub crawl with incredible food – washed down with a crisp Basque white or a glass of Rioja Crianza.
✈️ San Sebastian to UK: Make your way back to Bilbao for your return flight home to the UK.

Booked a trip to Budapest-Vienna-Prague with Claire at eShores. Whole experience was amazing Claire was extremely patient with me and extremely helpful. Can't wait to go on holiday now, but already planning where to go after that.
I rang eShores having read about their way of working - I liked that their office is relatively local and their team big enough to have experience of all continents yet small enough think for all the colleagues to know each other I rang with a vague outline of what I hoped to do for…

I have used E Shore twice for holidays both times with Michelle, she has the patience of a saint and has been amazing. Will definitely use them in the future
Had contacted a few travel agents about my holiday. None, repeat none of them were as knowledgeable is Matt, who was dealing with my enquiry. His knowledge of my destination & what I was hoping/ looking for was tremendous. The lengths he went to & patience he displayed was tremendous. Really made my choice to…
Dave is as very helpful. He made booking a fairly complicated holiday easy. We haven’t been on the holiday yet, but hopefully with Dave’s expert help it’ll be great.
I have used eshores before to organise a holiday. The service was second to none and the holiday was excellent. Everything went perfectly. For that reason I am using them again. I know I will be well looked after and safe. With eshores you can choose, mix and match different countries, transport etc and nothing…
We’ve just booked our Vietnam holiday through Andy at eShores, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From the very first call, Andy was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in what we wanted from our trip. He took the time to listen to our ideas and then put together a perfect itinerary that combined all…
Kadie from eshores has become my favourite go to for holidays and trips. Having just returned from a visit to China Hong Kong and Thailand organised by eshore I can say that it was one of the best holidays I had enjoyed for many years
I have dealt with Hannah a couple of times and found her very helpful and knowledgeable, it is really nice to be in contact with someone who one feels is genuinely interested in what you as a customer.
Nick has been extremely patient and helpful, he has now found the right flights and accommodation for us flying from the UK to Cairo, in February.
Laura has been very helpful in assisting us twice and responds quickly to our many queries. Our recent holiday to Lake Garda was a great success and we hope Madeira next year will prove likewise
Excellent service from start to finish. Our hotel package was designed totally to our requirments. Matt was super efficient and was more than happy to go that extra mile to ensure our package was the best..i would definitely recommend eShores and i will be using them again in the future.
Nick was a pleasure to deal with, He was patient and happy to make changes to our trip several times, I'd recommend dealing with him and eshores, Thanks nick
