Who are we?
We’re professional guides who, by fate, changed our location but never changed our calling.
Are we locals?
Our love affair with Bilbao might seem accidental to some, but it’s far from that. We first came here many years ago as tourists. The city immediately captivated us — the history, architecture, nature, people, the mystery of the Basque culture, and the uniqueness of the language. We fell in love with Bilbao at first sight and didn’t want to leave.
We dreamed of staying to live here. Back then, it was just a dream, and no one imagined it would come true.
During our long separation from Bilbao, we didn’t waste time. We learned Spanish, traveled the world, and even founded Anglotourismo, which has earned four quality certificates from TripAdvisor for our walking tours.
When it was time to choose a new place to call home, we knew right away that Bilbao would be it. And the city embraced us, revealing even more of its beauty and fascinating stories, which we’re eager to share with you. We’re also proudly holding a Master’s degree in Contemporary Culture and Arts from the University of the Basque Country, which gives us a deeper understanding of this unique city.
So yes, now we
WALK LIKE LOCALS.
Amazing amount of knowledge with lots of interesting history. Also got practical information and tips for where and what to eat. Really enjoyed this informative tour. It is 2 1/2 hours which may be too long for some people but I thought it was great.
Olga was a fabulous guide. Would definitely recommend. Very knowledgeable and helpful.
Mike was an excellent guide. He really helped us to understand the cultural context of Bilbao. He shared with us infromation about history, sport, food, politics, transport etc and what life might be like for the people of Bilbao. We wouldnt have been understand all of this is we hadnt had a guide like Mike. We were just a small group so it was more like a conversation with a local as we strolled around the old city. We highly recommend this tour.
