Description

At the designated time, our meeting point will be the puppy floral sculpture at the Guggenheim Museum, marking the starting point for our journey north from Bilbao.

Our initial destination is the stunning Punta Galea viewpoint, where we'll get views of the Bizkaia coast.

We will navigate through Getxo along the right bank of the river, beginning in the Las Arenas neighborhood. We will pass by the Lezama-Leguizamón Palace and proceed to the Old Port of Algorta.

Continuing our journey, we will traverse the Bizkaia Suspension Bridge from Getxo, exploring its history with the assistance of an audio guide.

Our next stop is Portugalete, on the left bank of the Nervion estuary. We will explore its streets, intersected by the Camino de Santiago, before visiting the Hanging Bridge of Bizkaia. This footbridge, a World Heritage Site, was built in the late 19th century to connect both estuary banks.

The return journey to Bilbao concludes our adventure, with an estimated arrival at the meeting point four hours after the initial pickup.

Included

  • Transport by minibus
  • English–speaking guide
  • Admission ticket to the Bizkaia Suspension Bridge with an English audio guide
