About this experience

Participants will explore the medieval Old Town of Bilbao, known as Siete Calles, with a knowledgeable local guide. Following the walking tour, a one-hour river cruise will showcase iconic landmarks and highlight the city's transformation. An optional ticket to the Guggenheim Museum is available for those who wish to visit independently. This experience suits those interested in history and art but may not be ideal for those with mobility issues. It is important to note that the cruise does not include a guided tour, and the Guggenheim Museum visit is separate.
