Description

Discover the magic of Santiago de Compostela on a unique and personalized journey. Departing from Porto, this tour takes you through the historic pilgrimage routes, rich in history and tradition. Our first stop is Valença do Minho, the last Portuguese town for pilgrims on the Central Portuguese Way, where you can admire the imposing fortress overlooking the Minho River. Already in Galicia, we visit Padrón, a historic town linked to the legend of the Apostle James, where you will see the church housing the pillar to which, according to tradition, the boat carrying the Saint’s body was moored. Upon arrival in Santiago de Compostela, immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of the city, with time for a traditional lunch and a guided tour of its historic center. The magnificent Cathedral of Santiago and the iconic Obradoiro Square hold fascinating secrets and stories that we will reveal to you. On our way back to Portugal, we stop at Ponte de Lima, the oldest town in the country, where tradition and charm can be felt in every street and medieval bridge. This tour is perfect for those who want to experience the essence of the Camino de Santiago without walking. With over 1,500 km traveled and seven complete pilgrimages to Santiago, I know every detail of this sacred route and guarantee an unforgettable experience.
