Customer Reviews
The Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao is a fantastic, well maintained museum full of art. We love the changing exhibitions and seeing all of the art there. This museum shares works with the one in New York, which is neat to see too. I reviewed our visit on my blog, Life with Jupiter and Dann.
The building is, as expected, iconic, but the real highlight for me was the Richard Serra works — monumental, immersive, and reason enough to visit on their own. The Yayoi Kusama installation was also very good. Interestingly, the entrance is not from the river side but from the back, which makes the first encounter slightly less dramatic than expected. Still, both the architecture and the exhibitions are extremely strong.
Iconic showcase of art in a spectacular building. For someone who is not a big fan of art museums, I found this place very interesting and amusing. Every single room had a unique feature and I didn’t get bored even after spending 1.5hrs in here. A must-see in Bilbao! You can buy ticket online. I got there with 10 groups waiting in front of me to buy tickets so I just quickly bought it online and skipped the long queue. Only takes 2-3 mins max
