Tour description

Hello everyone,

We would like to inform you that this year the Aste Nagusia/ Semana Grande de Bilbao will be celebrated from August 17 to 25.

Therefore during those dates,

IMPORTANT!

THE MEETING POINT WILL BE IN FRONT OF THE TOWN HALL, NEXT TO THE OTEIZA SCULPTURE AND THE TOWN HALL BRIDGE (WHITE UMBRELLAS)

(We are moving it only 5 minutes walk from the original meeting point, to the next bridge, since the festive area and the activities will make the meetings very difficult)

ON THOSE DAYS, ALL THE FREE TOURS WE OFFER WILL COMBINE PART OF THE THEMES OF THE HISTORICAL FREE TOUR AND THE MODERN FREE TOUR IN 120-140 MINUTES. WE WILL MAINTAIN THE SAME SCHEDULES.

GIVEN THE DATES AND FESTIVE ACTIVITIES, WE WILL MAINLY TRAVEL THROUGH THE AREAS OF THE MODERN HISTORY TOUR.

(City Hall, Ensanche, Abandoibarra, La Ría, Paseo Uribitarte, Guggenheim, Moyua...)

WE CONFIRM ALL RESERVATIONS RECEIVED FOR THOSE DATES AND WE PUT OUR WHATSAPP AT YOUR DISPOSAL FOR ANY QUESTIONS AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR CONFIRMATION THAT YOU HAVE RECEIVED THE NOTIFICATION.

+34 623193433

We would like you to take into consideration that the entire city will be particularly transformed during the festive week and that is why we have to take exceptional measures for guided tours.

We are convinced that you will love it and that you have chosen the best way to get to know Bilbao!

Greetings and see you soon in Bilbao!

The Basque free tour Bilbao team



From its charming medieval village we will explore the origins of this ancient trading town.

More than seven centuries of conflicts, characters and events come together in an entertaining journey that follows the impressive story of the expansion of the classical and industrial city of the 19th century until the award-winning transformation of Bilbao, ending at the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao.

Faced with the vicissitudes of history, we will discover a city that has turned its face to its river with a recognized urbanism driven by architectural milestones.

An essential visit to discover the history of Bilbao and the traditions of Basque culture.

Professional local guides are waiting for you!
