Rías Baixas Day Trip

After meeting up at the indicated time on Rúa dos Bautizados in Santiago de Compostela, we'll set off on our route towards Pontevedra, the capital of the province of the same name.

We'll embark on a guided tour of the historic centre of Pontevedra, one of the best preserved in Galicia. You'll explore the Medieval monumental complex, including the Gothic ruins of the Convent of Santo Domingo and admire the Renaissance influence in the Praza da Ferraría and the Basilica of Santa María a Maior.

Next, we'll travel to the port of Combarro to board a boat. Our ride across the Ría de Pontevedra will feature lush coastal landscapes and Tambo Island. During the boat cruise, we'll enjoy a wine tasting with mussels.

After returning to Combarro, you'll have around 2 hours of free time to have lunch. In the afternoon, we'll visit the Chapel of the Virgen de la Lanzada for panoramic views of the longest beach in Rías Baixas.

We will conclude our trip with a walking tour of Cambados, known for Albariño wine, featuring the Igrexa de San Bieito church and the Pazo de Fefiñáns, a historic palace.

We will return from Cambados to Santiago, arriving approximately 10 hours after the start time.
