The Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao is fabulous and our tour guide did a wonderful job leading our LARGE group through the crowds. He was knowledgeable and patient. We were disappointed with the size of our group, which was 20-25 people. We chose viator because they usually have the advertised "small group" tour
Excellent overview. Beatrice was helpful, informed, and a good communicator. There was a mixup regarding place to meet, but that had to do with central office, not the guide.
A very enriching tour!!! It allowed us to better understand the importance of the museum to the city
This is the best way to see the museum and learn so much about the building itself and the art. Our guide Miguel made our morning tour just wonderful. Highly recommend!
Asier was our guide and really led us through GM super well. Very informative and very personable with wonderful tips. Highly recommended
Nora, is an excellent guide! She helped us truly understand the museum inside and outside with history, the basque culture, and humor! One of the best guides we have had this trip to Spain!
Nora is an incredible guide! She brought in history, Basque culture, and lots of information about the museum outside and art inside. So worth it! Her knowledge and tour helped to truly understand the museum. She is one of the best guides we have had in Spain while traveling!
Visit with a guide is fundamental otherwise was visit to see works without understanding anything of what represents who was the artist
Excellent tour with great depth of knowledge about the art and building. We enjoyed the tour a lot!!
Excellent tour that gave background about Bilbao, the museum and how it was built and the art.
