This unique museum built on a 32,500 square meter site in the center of Bilbao is an extraordinary combination of interconnecting shapes. The impressive limestone blocks contrast with curved architectural forms covered in titanium, and the glass curtain walling provides the building with the light and transparency it needs. Explore the museum by yourself, Explore the museum by yourself, an audio guide is included in the ticket price.

Basque country at its best.

5.00Our tour guide, Daniel, picked us up at the hotel and drove us to BILBAO where we took-in some views of the city and then made our way to the centerpiece of our visit - The Guggenheim. All I can say is The Museum itself (the building) is THE ART and all the amazing art inside it's walls seems to be there in a supporting role... what an amazing building; what an inspiring space. After a couple of hours in the Guggenheim, we proceeded to the coastline and took pictures in beautiful and historical locations such as Bakio, Bermeo before ending up in a picturesque, country restaurant called Almiketxu, which specializes Basque cooking including grilled meats and fresh fish - food was delicious and all paired perfectly with the local TXAKOLI wine. An amazing day made perfect by our knowledgeable guide who took the time to ask questions so he could adapt the day according to our interests. I recommend this tour and specially recommend our guide Daniel Gonzalez.

Touring in Sebastian and Bilbao with Iker

5.00We had never been to Basque contry....best part was our guide Iker Bardaji and the tour company that he works with Baskme, private tours....after Iker of course was the Amazing Guggenheim Museum....you have to see it to believe it....then there was the history of the Basque people, their language, culture, their food. Iker was totally flexible with his time and how long....we chose not to walk to the Game of Thrones Island....that would have taken way too long....had a great lunch in the small town there. Hake fish in a green sauce, delicious and of course local wine. Charles (Tom) Thompson and Prima Penalosa

He Excellently provided us with all the information we needed to know about our tour and much more. Eskerrik asko, Andoni!

5.00Andoni was an amazing tour guide- knowledgeable, relaxed, and flexible to give us options when we wanted to grab coffee and a snack. It was a pleasure to go to this area with an experienced local who could tell us all the helpful, important stuff. I really enjoyed having lunch at the Game of Thrones rock area. And Andoni gave us restaurant recommendations in San Sebastian which were all spot-on. We ended up going to at least 2-3 of his recommended restaurants and really enjoyed each one.

5.00Could not recommend this tour enough! The sights (including stops at Bilbao’s Guggenheim museum, San Juan Gaztelugatxe, Mundaka beach, and Guernica), are breathtaking. The highlight for our family, however, was being able to learn about the Basque culture and history from Mikel, our guide, who gamely answered all our questions and made us feel as though we were touring with a knowledgeable friend. If you get the opportunity to visit the region, definitely book your tours through BaskMe.
Fantastic Tour

5.00Ania was the best guide we could have hoped for. Her tour was thoughtfully planned and she was so knowledgeable, patient and fun! We learned so much about Basque culture and history, which made all of the sites so much more meaningful. There are too many highlights from which to choose, but the architecture of the Guggenheim lived up to the hype! We highly recommend this tour!
Guaranteed a wonderful time & good memories ✨

5.00I booked Andoni’s time twice during my stay in San Sebastian - Spain. Both tours were private to our group (party of 2) we took a tour to the City of San Sebastian and Bilbao and the country side and coast. Andoni was passionate and knowledgable about the history and culture of the Basque country, attentive and friendly, personalized the tour to our interests and needs, and frankly it was the best time we had. Leave it to Andoni and you are guaranteed a wonderful time full of good memories.
