Guggenheim and Bilbao

Published on Jul, 2022

Ana provided us with a wonderful tour of Bilbao. She was able to comprehensively explain the exhibits at the Guggenheim, which we so enjoyed. She tailored the overview of the city to our family, and the funicular trip to see Bilbao from above was a highlight. We would highly recommend this tour and Ana as a guide!
