Picturesque towns, a boat cruise on the Arousa estuary, and an Albariño winery visit await you on this unmissable day trip to the Rías Baixas from A Coruña.
Rías Baixas Day Trip
At the indicated time, we'll meet in the Praza de Pontevedra, in the centre of A Coruña, ready to start our complete tour of the Rías Baixas, the four estuaries on Galicia's southwestern coast.
Our first stop will be in Combarro, where we'll walk through the cobbled streets to learn about its history and famous granaries.
After exploring Combarro, we'll visit an Albariño winery to sample and learn about this wine, tasting 3 different varieties.
Next, we'll head to the island of La Toxa, noted for its historic soap factories and a scallop shell-covered chapel. Notably, one of the most important thermal spas in Galicia is located here.
From there, we will continue to El Grove for a boat trip on the Arousa estuary. During the cruise, we'll learn about mussel rafts and have the opportunity to taste local wine and mussels.
After returning to shore, we'll complete our day with a visit to Pontevedra, where we'll take a guided tour of the city's historic centre, discovering places like the Pilgrim Chapel and the ruins of San Domingo.
Finally, we'll return to A Coruña, finishing after 10 hours and 30 minutes of activities.
