Description
Get ready for a true journey through time and forget about the usual tourist routes. A historical show that takes us back to the origins of our civilization. Fancy a tour?
We will travel back in time along an amazing timeline, from the modern and revolutionary development of Bilbao's present day to the distant medieval and Roman eras that gave rise to this magical city, all on a fast-paced and fun tour. The tour is enhanced by enigmas and secrets revealed at the exact moment you take your photo, making this journey a truly spectacular experience!
We are pleased to have “El Profe” on our team of guides. He is a guide-historian recognized by Google and Tripadvisor for his unique and engaging way of sharing knowledge with all types of audiences, on a tour carefully planned to allow our travelers to enjoy the most important sights in Bilbao,
bringing together the modern and the ancient in a single tour, all within an atmosphere that is as enjoyable as it is informative.
Our meeting point will be the Guggenheim Museum itself, behind the colossal Puppy mascot, and we will conclude our tour in front of the picturesque setting provided by the San Antón Church, located by the estuary.
Places we will visit: Exterior view of the Guggenheim, Puente de los Salve, Las Sirgueras, Izosaki Towers, Calatrava Bridge, façade of the Muelles, City Hall, Paseo El Arenal, Teatro Arriaga, Plaza Nueva, Puerta del Ángel, Cathedral, Mercado de la Ribera, and Iglesia de San Antón.
Farewell and group photo
Throughout my life as a guide-teacher, I have explained wars, revolutions, and empires that rose and fell. But over time, I realized something very important: the most valuable history isn't found in books… it's right here, in the people who come to this class.
Today, we are going back in time.
We don't travel to change it. We travel to understand it.
And now we understand that the present is the only moment when we can truly do something extraordinary: CHOOSE!
Choose differently. Choose better.
And it is here, in this very moment, that we are truly free.
And, dear GET YOUR GUIDE friends, that may very well be the greatest revelation of this entire journey!
