Overview

With this tour, you get a fantastic full view of the Architecture of Bilbao
This tour focuses on the architecture of the modern part of Bilbao, known as the Ensanche. Personally, I think the Ensanche is more beautiful than the Old City, thanks to its architecture and the hidden stories of the Left Riverbank. On this tour, we’ll enjoy a brief but engaging introduction to the Guggenheim Museum, take a ride on the Arantxa Funicular (included in the price), stroll through the most interesting and beautiful parts of the city, and wrap up the day at the iconic Alhóndiga Bilbao, a cultural centre rich in artistic and architectural charm.
