Private Tour: Guggenheim Bilbao Museum

We had a short window of time to tour the museum. Maria was the perfect choice. Her breadth and depth of knowledge was appreciated. We learned so much more than had we not hired a Gide. I would highly recommend this service.

Excellent! Michel was very knowledgeable and personable at the same time. You can tell he LOVES art. Perfect for us because we are not always modern art lovers. He interpreted pieces thru the eyes of the artists which help us gain a better understanding and appreciation of the art. Perfect amount of time!

So much fun to learn the deep hidden meaning of the architecture of this one-of-a-kind museum.

Maria was a wonderful guide! SHe was available to speak about anything! MAde GOod suggestions for further ventures.

Susannah was simply the best. Being the education director how could anyone ask for more. She more than informed, she educated. We did not want the tour to stop. Actually we ran over our allotted time because we enjoyed her so much. We felt privileged to have Susannah as our guide.

Bilbao was such a lovely surprise! Its a very clean and beautiful smaller sized city with the Bilbao River running through it. Its not as touristy as more of the popular Spanish cities, which was a nice change, as we were visiting in the peak tourist time. Once an industrial town it's now the home of the Guggenheim Museum, which is a fascinating museum of modern art and sculptures and other guest art exhibitions. A must see in Bilbao! The old town of Casco Viejo in the Centre is delightful with its cobblestone streets, shops, cafes, pinxtos bars and more along its cobblestone malls, overlooked by ornately terraced balconies. Walks along the river are so picturesque! This was our favourite place so far! A trip on the vernicular is worth a visit to give you a fabulous view over the city of Bilbao. Plenty to see and do here, so well worth it if visiting the Basque country of Spain. Bilbao is also a stepping stone to San Sebastion, about 1 hr 2 min by bus away. San Sebastian is Spains answer to the French Riviera! Stunning spot with a beautiful beach and lots of tourists!.

This was a fabulous trip and tour. Couldn't have been better.
