Meet your guide outside the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao to begin a 120-minute guided tour of both the inside and the outside of the museum. Learn why Bilbao was chosen as the home for the stunning Frank Gehry-designed building, and discover the structure of the building and the outdoor sculptures that surround the museum. Then, get to know the most important works of the Guggenheim's permanent and rotating collections as you wander through its galleries, atrium, and terrace in the company of your guide.

We had booked for at. 10 am and should meet our guide no later than kl. 9.50. When we walked around and inquired, we were told that the museum only opens until 11am and of course we could not find any guide at the designated place. Kl. 10.15 I get a message from the guide that he is on his way and that he we will be at the designated place, as stated in his booking. He came and was a wonderful guide. He was equally amazed at the Get your Guides action of the course. Despite wasting an hour where we could have a lovely morning sleep, we had a fantastic tour, with the best guide on the Guggenheim
