We took the bus and then the train and it worked out very well without any problems. I would leave another extra day in Bilbao if possible. It is a fun city and quite inexpensive.

Hi Jacquie persons! Welcome to the forum!

In addition to the options quoted by @whariwharangi on post number 2:
  • Bus from Bilbao airport to downtown Bilbao (shuttle bus that runs every 20 minutes). Bus from downtown Bilbao to Pampolona with www.autobuseslaunion.com and bus from Pamplona to SJPP with Alsa.
  • If you arrive late and want to make an overnight stay in downtown Bilbao, be aware Pesa (www.pesa.net) has some days a direct bus from downtown Bilbao to Bayonne. Take a look at the web of Pesa for more info.
