You have a 30 minute window in which to arrive, eg if you buy a 16:00 ticket you must arrive by 16:30. Once inside you are bound to the closing time of the museum, which can vary depending on date/special days so recommend you check.

My wife and I are arriving in the port of Bilbao at 8:00 AM on Thursday September 14. What time will the museum open that day? What is the best/quickest way to get to and from the museum? Does the museum offer its own private tours and, if so, what is the cost for 2 people?

Our cruise ship provided a free shuttle to the Fine Arts Museum (throughout the day) located near Guggenheim. Whatsinport says the port provides a free shuttle bus to the Getxo Metro station, Areeta. Board and get off at Moyua Metro station. Then walk 12 minutes to Guggenheim. Google maps shows the walking route from Moyua station. The Guggenheim Bilbao website probably has the answers to your question about group tours, hours. I paid the seniors rate which was very reasonable. I walked around at my leisure, inside, for about 1 hour. I wouldn't pay for a group tour.
