Purple Basque Tours is comprised of Johann and Susanne, who met in Bilbao four years ago and our love for the city and the Guggenheim Museum (especially) made us create these alternative tours. We keep the tours up to 8 people because we want you and us - mainly - to have fun and take the most out of it! We live in Bilbao and we love it!!! That's why offering tours to people from all over the world who are open to explore the city in a non tourist way, is our passion! We would love to show you "our" city the way "we see it" and introduce you to the Basque culture and history. Join us to a Purple Basque Tour!!!

Tour description

The Memory Walk (El Paseo de la Memoria) is an open-air- artistic walk along way the river estuary of the side of the Guggenheim Museum. Used to be a high industrial area, and now is the favourite place for a stroll. Having the Museum in its centre, bridges, buildings and sculptures are full of hidden stories, waiting for whom wants to listen.  
The walk is of a straight course of about four kilometres and very relaxing, mainly because of the time of the day chosen to do.  During an hour an a half, we'll talk about the Guggenheim Effect and why the Museum was built in Bilbao, the beginning of the Athletic Football Team, the stories of the bridges that we'll pass and about some even more interesting stories about its people whom lived in a city which has been transformed like no other, but wants to keep its memory alive.
