Hi there everyone! I'm Susanne from Athens, an official Tour Guide with a University Degree in Spanish history, literature, and arts and I've been living in Spain since 2015. I came to visit Bilbao because of the Guggenheim Museum, and fell in love with the city, so I decided, since the very "peculiar" summer of 2020 to offer Free Tours in English, to whoever would be interested to discover the real history and go beyond the touristic part of Bilbao. Via the GuruWalk platform of Free Tours, I can combine my passion for the city, for meeting new interesting people, and for making a living from what I love doing the most.
This tour starts at the centre of the Old City - The Seven streets - and tells the story of the beginning of the city. After visiting the three most important squares of the Casco Viejo, while talking about the evolution of the Old City, we cross the bridge and continue its history by visiting the New City (Ensanche).
Bilbao's industrial story and the Guggenheim effect is explained while visiting some of the most beautiful buildings and squares of the New City.
The tour finishes in front of the Guggenheim Museum (the Puppy) and we'll talk about how and why the Guggenheim was built in Bilbao.
The whole history of the city in less than a 3 hours walking tour.
Miguel de Unamuno square
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
