3-Hour Bilbao E-Bike Tour Along the Nervion, Small Group or Private
Three hours on an e-bike with a local guide cover more of Bilbao than a walk can, and the pedal assist keeps the pace easy. The route runs along the Nervion River, from the historic old part and the Zubizuri bridge to the Guggenheim Museum and San Mames Stadium.
The guide tells the story of a small trading port that became an industrial city and then the cultural center of the Basque Country. The Guggenheim is visited from the outside, along with the outdoor works Mama, Puppy and The Eye. Other stops include Plaza Euskadi and the Iberdrola Tower, the park next to the Museum of Fine Arts, the Euskalduna Palace, the Maritime Museum grounds, City Hall, and the San Anton Bridge, where the ride ends.
The tour runs as a small group or as a private ride. Private tours can also be arranged in German, French, Basque and Spanish by sending a request after booking.
