Who are we? We’re professional guides who, by fate, changed our location but never changed our calling. Are we locals? Our love affair with Bilbao might seem accidental to some, but it’s far from that. We first came here many years ago as tourists. The city immediately captivated us — the history, architecture, nature, people, the mystery of the Basque culture, and the uniqueness of the language. We fell in love with Bilbao at first sight and didn’t want to leave. We dreamed of staying to live here. Back then, it was just a dream, and no one imagined it would come true. During our long separation from Bilbao, we didn’t waste time. We learned Spanish, traveled the world, and even founded Anglotourismo, which has earned four quality certificates from TripAdvisor for our walking tours. When it was time to choose a new place to call home, we knew right away that Bilbao would be it. And the city embraced us, revealing even more of its beauty and fascinating stories, which we’re eager to share with you. We’re also proudly holding a Master’s degree in Contemporary Culture and Arts from the University of the Basque Country, which gives us a deeper understanding of this unique city. So yes, now we WALK LIKE LOCALS.

Tour description


There’s a saying that each of us has our own city. A city within a city.
We believe this is absolutely true, no matter where you are in the world. And we invite you to explore Bilbao with us through a very personal, intimate route. From the hotel near the famous theater where we stayed while looking for permanent accommodation, to the wonderful local bar with the most delicious homemade lunches – a place where only locals go.

We'll take you on the same path we followed two years ago when we first arrived in Bilbao. Along the way, we’ll not only tell you about the city’s history and landmarks, but also share our experience of what it’s like to move here—studying at the university, searching for a job, making new friends, and settling into life in Bilbao.

We are experienced travelers and guides with years of experience leading private tours. So, expect useful tips on where to find the best, most affordable, and tastiest spots in town, along with a few essential phrases in Spanish and Basque to help you communicate. All we ask of you is good energy and an open mind, ready to discover this amazing city.
