Meet your guide at the outside door of the turist office just in front of the Puppy monument and begin a fascinating 1.5-hour guided tour of Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.
Before exploring the art, kick things off with an introduction to the impressive architecture of the building. Designed by Frank Gehry and opened in 1997, the museum changed the physiognomy of Bilbao forever, transforming it from an industrial city to a cosmopolitan one.
Get to know two of the most renowned permanent exhibitions inside the museum: the spider-shaped sculpture called “Mom” by Louise Bourgeois, and Jeff Koons’ iconic “Puppy”, which has become no less than a symbol of Bilbao.
Along the the way, benefit from a critique of other outstanding works at the museum from your expert guide. Once the tour is over, return to the starting point. If you wish, continue the visit at your leisure with an audioguide in one of 6 languages.
