Excellent
Very knowledgeable and friendly guide (Inigo?). We saw a lot of Bilbao we wouldn’t have seen if we had decided to just look round by ourselves.

Walking tour of Bilbao,...
Walking tour of Bilbao, covering center city and the Old Town. It took closer to three hours rather than two as advertised.
via Viator
Interesting perspective
Helpful way to understand the city and culture! The guide, Samual, spent extra time with us and very informative!

Informed, friendly and enthusiastic guide
Really informative and engaging tour with Samuel, apart from the routine information he had plenty of the smaller details which were fascinating.

Bilbao Old Town Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bilbao.
How much does Bilbao Old Town Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $34 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bilbao usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Bilbao Old Town Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bilbao is not rushed.
Is Bilbao Old Town Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 56 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bilbao, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Bilbao Old Town Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Bilbao Old Town Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bilbao Old Town Tour?
+
Around 20 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bilbao can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bilbao and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bilbao Old Town Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bilbao within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bilbao?
+
On Outty we rank every Bilbao experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Award-Winning Bilbao Food Tour & Wine Pairing by Basque Local, Bilbao Food Tour: Pintxos, Drinks, and Tapas with a Local, Dragonstone, Mundaka and Guernica from Bilbao. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bilbao?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bilbao?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Bilbao Old Town Tour?
+
Included: Professional guide; Walking tour of Old Town Bilbao (Casco Viejo); and Local Tax. Not included: Tips; and Hotel pickup and drop-off. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Bilbao Old Town Tour?
+

What languages is Bilbao Old Town Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Bilbao Old Town Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Bilbao Old Town Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
