Stops in detail
The tour starts
At 10:00 a.m. from our office, it is necessary to be there 15 (09:45 a.m.) minutes before departure. The address is Rúa das Casas Reaís, 31 (3 minutes from the Cathedral and right next to the Porta do Camiño, at the entrance to the old part of the city, where the French road passes). The Pick-Up / collection service (only in Santiago de Compostela) can only be offered for some hotels and always with prior notice (there are hotels that are located in places where the bus cannot pass). If your hotel is not on the list, it is best to contact us so we can let you know if the service is available. Also, another opportunity (if possible) is to have one of our staff members pick you up from your hotel a little early.
O Grove
It is the cradle of the Rías Baixas, seafood and Albarino wine. This stop with a sea view is used to enjoy the good food that the town offers. An hour and a half approximately to be able to eat.
Eno-gastronomic tour in an Albariño winery
We will make a walk among the vineyards of a very prestigious Albariño, that of the Rías Baixas, among the best in the world; It is not for nothing that they sell and serve it throughout Europe, Asia and the United States.
Not only will we have the opportunity to get a close look at the production of this excellent wine, as participants will also be offered a tasting of one Rías Baixas appellation wine in good company.
Hermitage of the Lanzada
This mystical place, established in the 9th century, certainly deserves to be known in depth, accompanied by a nice walk. Its importance is not only related to its history, but its location must be taken into account, that is, on the shores of one of the most admirable beaches in Galicia. In all this, we cannot absolutely forget that this temple hosts and offers some definitely popular moonlight rituals, which makes it even more unique in its kind.
combarro
To get to this picturesque little town, one of the most beautiful in Spain, located on the banks of the Ría de Pontevedra, we will cross part of the Bay of Poio.
All this beauty is conferred on it by a giant rock on which it is built, by the hórreos with which it is surrounded, by the houses that overlook the sea and by various stone crosses typical of Galicia, called “Cruiseiros”, which are found on the site.
Walking through the characteristic streets and squares of this place, you have, therefore, the possibility of making a true and authentic journey through time, as well as visiting an area of great ecological value.
A Toxa
This relaxing island, famous for the production of soap and for its thermal waters, is located in an area called « Red Natura 2000 », but it does not end here: we can find a small museum of the old soap factory and a fully covered chapel. of shells
Cruise with wine, mussels, drinks and a shot
A tour over the sea, through which you can admire and directly face the production of mussels, oysters and scallops; We will make different stops to be able to contemplate the watering holes and then be able to taste steamed mussels in great quantity accompanied by one of the best local wines and a good shot of Crema de Orujo.
