Solo travel

I have to say, Bilbao is amazing, both for its people and the food. The cost here is affordable, and the people are very friendly. This is not a commercial city, so l recommend planning for three days and two nights if you want somewhere to chill for solo travel. Definitely recommend it!

Group travel

I went to Bilbao this summer with my friends and it was a wonderful experience! I’d recommend you to go during the last week of august, because you will be able to enjoy the local festivity. I felt safe, especially in the more central neighborhoods.

In most areas Bilbao is super safe. I travel alone as a girl and Bilbao is safe both day and night. There is one neighbourhood that is a bit more unsafe though and that are the streets around San Francisco. So I wouldn’t go there alone, especially at night. If google maps takes you there, take another way.

Bilbao is a really safe place. Maybe in the town are little places that's better to avoid at night, but nothing to important. You have to be a little bit careful maybe at night, but it's totally a safe place.

super safe actually spain is chill af and ive been living here for 5 years and only usual things happened even though i lived at the worst neighborhood in bilbo for a year and yea my phone was stolen but thats lifee i think the fights r only between men who want to fight idk
