A worthwhile few hours with Íñigo

David_G, Sep 2025
We had a wonderful private tour withi Íñigo. It wasn’t about “checking off” tourist sites but rather about getting a real sense of this beautiful city. We walked a lot and saw a great deal, and his narrative was illuminating and fascinating. We recommend him without hesitation.

Excellent tour of Bilbao

Sam was an excellent tour guide with an incredibly in depth knowledge of all aspects of Bilbao. I found it to be highly educational and would highly recommend this tour for any traveller.

Nice night tour

Regina_C, Mar 2023
I learned new things about the city, local culture, and the region. Thank you very much to our guide, he was very nice and accommodating.

Good Tour just needs a stop or two

Stuart_D, Jul 2022
Our guide was very informative in the history of Bilbao as we walked round. He showed us where the best bars were to go to. However we didn’t stop in any of them and as the tour was 2hrs long my only comment would be to stop occasionally. We did eventually ask if we could stop and gat a drink and we offered him one as well. We did think we perhaps should have done this earlier in the trip as I’m sure he would have do so. So maybe a tip for future travellers.

Excellent all round

Chris was an excellent guide who was passionate about his subject and communicated brilliantly. Thank you!

Authentic Bilbao experience with lots of new knowledge

Yifan_T, Nov 2021
Sam was great. We covered a lot of ground. He showed me interesting sites, shared lots of cultural and historical information, and gave me great recommendations for restaurants, pintxo bars, and clubs to visit. Sam is born and raised in Bilbao, so he could give a local’s perspective for everything. It was quite nice to learn all these about the Basque Country. The best experience for me was to wander through the old town, especially the very busy Pintxos bar area where lots of people were out and about late Saturday night. What an experience!

Inigo gave us a super overview of Bilbao and great tips regarding restaurants and other sights. He even told us about places worth seeing outside of Bilbao for the rest of our trip to northern Spain! His German skills are also very good. Highly recommended overall!
