Transport from Bilbao to Unquera

[Willdtrout]

I’m coming back!

Flying into Bilbao to restart my Camino Norte. I’ll arrive late evening so would like a place to stay.

I’ll catch a bus the next day from there to Unquera with a noon departure. Can anyone recommend a place to stay with easy access from the airport and to the bus station that is also in an area I can find a vodaphone or orange tienda in the morning.

Also, the bus works but is inconvenient. Train doesn’t seem to be an option. Is it possible or reasonable to book a car for the 150 Km drive? I’m guessing to expensive for me?

Thank you in advance

We flew into Bilbao to continue our Camino del Norte/Primitivo two weeks ago. We took the bus to central Bilbao from the airport. It leaves every twenty minutes or so. We had a hotel about a km from the Intermodal where we caught the bus to Llanes the next day. I think it was Hotel Conde Duque.
If you are traveling through the Madrid airport you can buy an Orange or Vodafone sim or esim in Terminal 4. I forgot the name of the shop, but it was quick and easy

I forgot the airport option…. I’m entering EU in Bilbao though. Maybe the airport will have tienda? I get in pretty late though

Bilbao airport is very small . I doubt they would have anything, but I didn't really look.
