       Getting Around
       The A8 (E70) road runs behind the
       Basque coast and through Bilbao,
       which also has an international
       airport. Most towns are linked by
       national and local bus services.
       The local rail network is comfortable
       and has the added advantage of
       following some unforgettable
       routes. However, several of the
       more remote places worth visiting
