Description
DAY 1: FINISTERRE AND COSTA DA MORTE – BETWEEN MYTHS AND CLIFFS We kick off the adventure by touring the mythical Costa da Morte, one of the most impressive areas in Galicia. We'll visit Pontemaceira, a beautiful medieval complex next to the Tambre River; Muxía, with its Sanctuary of the Virgin of Barca; the legendary Cabo Fisterra, considered the end of the world by the Romans; and the spectacular Ézaro Waterfall, unique in Europe for flowing into the sea. We'll also check out the Carnota granary and end up in Muros, a charming seaside village with a stone-built old town. DAY 2: RÍAS BAIXAS – FLAVORS OF THE SEA AND WINES WITH SOUL A day dedicated to the flavors and landscapes of the southern coast. We'll start with a visit to an Albariño winery, with an explanation of the process and a tasting. We'll continue to Combarro, with its granaries by the sea; we'll pass by Illa da Toxa, famous for its chapel covered with shells; and we'll arrive in O Grove, with free time for lunch or to explore. If you like, you can join the optional boat ride with mussel and wine tasting among the mussel rafts. DAY 3: PLAYA DE LAS CATEDRALES, RIBADEO AND LUGO – NATURE AND HISTORY The order of stops and departure time may vary depending on the tide. Today, we're heading north to discover the most monumental Galicia. We'll visit the Beach of the Cathedrals, a natural jewel of arches sculpted by the sea. Then, we'll tour Ribadeo, a town with Indian architecture, and finish in Lugo, where we'll stroll along its Roman Wall, a World Heritage Site, and its historic center. DAY 4: ART, MYSTERY, AND SPIRITUALITY IN SANTIAGO In the morning, we'll take a guided tour of the Cathedral Museum to discover its rooms, cloisters, and historical collections. At night, the theatrical tour 'Meigas Fóra!' immerses us in the magic of Santiago with the Meiga Volandeira. An experience with legends, humor, and Galician symbolism. DAY 5: RIBEIRA SACRA OR A CORUÑA AND BETANZOS – TWO WAYS TO EXPERIENCE GALICIA For the last day, we offer two alternatives: Ribeira Sacra: includes a catamaran ride through the Sil Canyons, a visit to viewpoints, the monastery of San Pedro de Rocas, and Ourense, the thermal capital of Galicia. A Coruña and Betanzos: discover the Tower of Hercules, the Old City, and the Plaza de María Pita. In Betanzos, enjoy its medieval quarter and its famous tortilla.
