Bilbao is undoubtedly the most important city in the Basque Country and one of Spain's main economic and cultural hubs. It has a huge variety of relevant industries and monuments of great stature, like the Guggenheim Museum, a masterpiece by famous architect Frank O. Gehry and considered to be one of the most spectacular buildings in the world, the San Juan de Gaztelugatxe chapel or Plaza Nueva. What's more, one of the most unique and celebrated teams in Spanish soccer, Athletic Bilbao, plays its matches there. To get there and discover all these places, it's definitely best to have a rental car in Bilbao. Enterprise Rent-A-Car has three branches in the region of Bilbao if you want to discover these places. The first is at Bilbao-Abando train station, the second is at Bilbao Airport and the third is at Calle Ibaibe 25, Barakaldo.

Car Rental at Bilbao Airport

Enterprise has a branch within Bilbao Airport.

It's worth mentioning that part of our facilities are located in the municipality of Sondika, whereas the other part, designed by Santiago Calatrava and strikingly modern, is in the municipality of Loiu. Enterprise has a subsidiary in these latter locations.

Things to do in Bilbao

Bilbao is undeniably a city full of interesting sites that are easily accessible if you have a rental car. The most famous of all these sights is the Guggenheim Museum, which is a marvel both on the outside and inside. Likewise, travelers seeking to sample the most exquisite local cuisine in the heart of a unique place simply need to head to Plaza Nueva and stop by any of its pintxos bars. You can also visit the Marítimo de la Ría boulevard and Europa park. The Iberdrola Tower, the Museum of Fine Arts and the Fingerprint Sculpture are other essential visits.

Places to Visit Near Bilbao

Not only is Bilbao home to spectacular points of interest within the city, the province also has truly interesting sites that can be reached comfortably with a rental car from Enterprise. Such is the case, for example, for Orduña, a municipality considered as an authentic jewel of nature and home to the source of the Nervión River. Equally spectacular is Areatza, located in the heart of Gorbea Natural Park. Balmaseda, Karrantza and Guernica, a village where Pablo Picasso was inspired to paint one of his most famous works, are other places on the itinerary that can't be missed.

Parking and Traffic in Bilbao

The traffic inside the old town of Bilbao is not excessively dense, which is due to the fact that many areas are pedestrianized and it has excellent public transport infrastructures. It's also important to remember that most of the parking available there is paid or restricted. Therefore, taking into account that it isn't an excessively large city, a good option is to leave your rental vehicle in a peripheral neighborhood and use it to get around when you want to explore the province. The farther you move away from the Ría area, the easier it will be to park.
