Vale la pena hacerlo. Buen resumen de la expansión de la ciudad. Si haces el recorrido en Bus turístico verás más o menos lo mismo.

Pienso que se deben de visitar más puntos de la parte nueva de Bilbao no sólo pasear a lo largo de la ría con larguísimas charlas de historia en 4/5 puntos de plantón. A mi no me convenció el tour. Pero pienso que Laura es una mujer súper preparada. Solo cambiaría el enfoque del tour
