    Enjoyed the hike on the path to the Gaztelugatxe chapel. Amazing views! The Guggenheim was of course a wonderful experience. Doing this your with a small group is great because you end up with so much more time at the locations and personal interactions and answered questions from your guide. We loved Felix, very friendly and informative. He did a great job.
