We had the pleasure of having Jave as our guide during our visit to the Guggenheim Museum and its surroundings in Bilbao. His passion and deep knowledge of the museum and its history made the experience truly unforgettable. Jave shared fascinating insights and brought every part of the tour to life in a way that was both engaging and inspiring. He also went above and beyond by sending stunning photos. If you’re looking for a professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable guide, Jave is the perfect choice.

Really good. We appreciated seeing highlights chosen by our guide but also the flexibility of spending extra time with things we especially wanted to linger on. Eduardo was knowledgeable and friendly. Started with great overview. And he helped me appreciate aspects of abstract art I had not grasped -- best explanation I've ever had. Our discussions of the Hilma af Klint exhibit were truly memorable.

Santi was a fantastic guide. We came entirely unprepared and he immersed us in the experience in the most conversational and engaging way. Clearly an expert, he easily adjusted to us and our level of understanding and interest. And, of course, the museum itself: history, architecture and art collection are nothing less than impressive.

Fun tour with Roberto who knows Bilbao and its history very well! Despite a drizzly and grey day, I really enjoyed and do recommend the tour! The e-bikes are great!

Our tour guide was Txema. First class experience with him. His knowledge, sense of humour all added to a memorable bike tour. Thank you
