Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had a great walk around Bilbao with Daria. She is very knowledgeable and had ton of stories. Daria was able to answer all of our questions and patiently accommodated our walk for us - we had a 1.5 year baby with us. She really loves the city and had a ton of recommendations for great places. I totally recommend to book this tour with her!"
"We were joining a larger group tour and requested Jessica to arrange a walk that would show us more of Bilbao than covered by the group tour. She did that and more. With information about my wife’s art work, she included buildings with “hidden” art inside that we would never have known about on our own. We were very happy with the tour created by Jessica and would highly recommend her services to others. "
"I had a wonderful guided tour of Bilbao with Mabel. She arrived right on time, was warm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. Over the course of the morning, she walked me through the heart of the city, sharing a wealth of historic facts, cultural context, and local insights. It was a relaxed yet engaging experience, and I left with a much deeper appreciation for Bilbao and Basque culture. Highly recommend Mabel to anyone looking for a thoughtful and well-paced introduction to the city. Shawn"
"Jessica heeft ons in een aantal uren door Bilbao geleid. Zij weet erg veel van de stad en haar oprechte enthousiasme is aanstekelijk. Jessica is relaxed, vrolijk en voor ons de perfecte gids. Wij vonden het jammer toen de rondleiding voorbij was. Raymond de Mooij"
"Rune hatte uns im Hotel abgeholt, obwohl er Däne ist hat er ein sehr gutes Deutsch gesprochen. Wir waren drei Ehepaare. Die Führung durch Bilbao war interessant und nie langweilig, und alle wichtigen und interessanten Informationen haben wir erhalten. Er hat die Tour auch auf unsere Bedürfnisse ausgerichtet, und und uns auch wertvolle Tipps gegeben. Wir können Rune auf jeden Fall empfehlen, und würden wenn wir wieder nach Bilbao kommen, Ihn als Stadtführer buchen. Vielen Dank für die gute Zeit in Bilbao "
"Mabel hat uns ganz toll durch Bilbao geführt und uns spannend und anschaulich die Geschichte der Basken und deren Kultur näher gebracht. Gerne jederzeit wieder und absolut weiter zu empfehlen! "
"Rune var en utrolig faglig stærk guide. God til at fange vores interesser og formidlede sin viden på en god og interessant måde med et snert af god humor. Kan på det varmeste anbefale Rune igen. Vi havde 2 fantastiske timer på Guggenheim. "
"We had an excellent tour with Jessica in the Guggenheim. Well prepared, even for the temporary exhibitions in the museum, she gave us a wonderful and insightful overview of the emblematic building and the stunning artwork inside. Absolutely worth it to have a tour with her."
"My wife and I did a 3-hour walking tour with Santi and couldn’t have enjoyed it more. Santi was funny and engaging and shared a deep knowledge of Bilbao and the Basque Country both as a native but also from the outside as someone who lived abroad for 7 years. His English fluency is near-perfect, so he is able to articulate and communicate his knowledge in a deep and nuanced way. We really loved Bilbao, and taking a tour with Santi the first morning we were there was a very big part of that. We recommend him wholeheartedly. "
"Wir waren mit einer kleinen Gruppe von 8 Personen Ende Mai in Bilbao und hatten eine deutsch-sprachige Tour mit Mabel gebucht. Die 3 Stunden sind wie im Flug vergangen und wir haben einen tollen Über- und Einblick in die Stadt bekommen. Die Tour war kurzweilig, informativ und auch von der Länge her ideal. Wir haben in der Altstadt begonnen und endeten am Guggenheim Museum. Die Tour mit Mabel war sicher eines der Top-Highlights unserer Kurzreise durchs Baskenland. Mabel hat uns menschlich und mit ihrem Wissen mehr als überzeugt. Durch sie wird uns Bilbao in toller Erinnerung bleiben. Vielen herzlichen Dank, liebe Mabel. "

The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao's history began with a vision to revitalize the city. Its construction, a feat of modern engineering, transformed Bilbao's industrial landscape into a hub of art and culture, attracting global attention and tourism. It is designed by the Canadian-American architect Frank Gehry
The Guggenheim's impact on Bilbao extends beyond its walls. The museum sparked urban renewal, fostered a vibrant cultural scene, and inspired other cities to invest in iconic architecture. It is a testament to the power of art and architecture to transform communities and become an engine for urban and economic change
