photo by Some just dash into Bilbao to “do” the Guggenheim but Bilbao is full of beautiful buildings, 1. shops, lovely views, terrific bars, gorgeous food – and above all, people as friendly as you could possibly wish.

There is so much to the city that you could just wander around stumbling upon the 2. and the intriguing without fully realising what you’ve chanced upon. You could, too, plough your way through a list of sights, museums, galleries, churches, 3. places etc, dutifully reading all the facts.

But there’s also another 4. activity which is much more 5., and that is to be taken around by a friend who knows the place. This is essentially what you will experience if you get in touch with Bilbao Greeters and, incredibly, it is free.

All you have to do is contact them in advance with an idea of what you’re interested in (culture, bars, shops, markets, 6., football, food, perhaps even nothing terribly 7.), and a 8. friendly local volunteer will spend up to about four hours showing you the best Where and What and How as only someone local can.

On top of that though, you’ll be getting the privilege of unique insights into the life of the city as you chat with them, finding out all sorts of things that you hadn’t even noticed, getting a real feel for the place, and you’ll part feeling that a genuine 9. has been made. That was certainly our experience and we can truly say that our contact with bilbaogreeters.com was what made our holiday so 10. – if only there were people like this everywhere we went!
