Great overview of area - Guide was charming and took lots time with us. Very knowledgeable and fun though not so easy to find in the square. He showed lots of different kinds of things. I esp loved the biblioteca.

Fun way to know Bilbao’s history - Samuel, was such a great guide! He explained us the history of Bilbao and took us back in history throughout the streets of Casco viejo!
He was very patient and kind to everyone in the group. He made sure no one was left behind in the group!

A good way to see old Bilbao - It was a good tour to orient to the old town. Having done many walking tours I think it is important to be aware of the original instructions eg a grey hat was on our instructions so we can find the guide amongst the others. The guide did not have a hat or marker eg coloured umbrella and he should introduce himself and the rest of the group and give a brief outline and timespan. Our guide was good but the tour could have been better. Compared to the many others we have done it was a little ordinary. Bilbao is very interesting

Disappointed overall - The tour guide was a nice enough guy; but it felt like they just asked a local to show us around. He spoke very softly and didn’t provide very detailed information. Bilboa overall was also very disappointing. I can see Bilboa was once glorious, but is now over run by anti tourist signs and political commentary. The streets in the old town reek of urine. I am told they have been over run by migrants with strong political views. What ever it is; we did not feel safe or welcome.
