Great tour, but not for people with mobility issues

We had a great tour. Loved Bilbao and the museum. The guide was informative and very prompt and professional. We ended up with a private tour because we were the only ones to book that day. My only complaint is that I felt the driver could have dropped us much closer to the museum without requiring my handicapped husband to walk (slowly with a cane) nearly half a mile just to get in the museum. The tour is great but requires a lot more than “moderate walking”. We did 14,000 steps that day…doable for most but challenging for anyone with mobility issues.

With just a few days in San Sebastián, we debated whether to take a precious half day to visit Bilbao. We are so glad we did! The Guggenheim alone is worth the trek, but our walking tour of the city added a whole new level of appreciation for Bilbao itself. Our guide, Begonia, was personable, funny, bright and extremely knowledgeable. We learned a ton about this vibrant city in a very short time. Highly recommend.
Wonderful tour
