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. Exploring its Medieval monumental complex, you'll see the Gothic ruins of the Convent of Santo Domingo and admire the Renaissance influence through the Praza da Ferraría and the Basilica of Santa María a Maior.

Leaving Pontevedra, we'll proceed to the port of Combarro, where a boat will be waiting for us. From here, we'll sail across the Ría de Pontevedra, enjoying coastal landscapes and Tambo Island. During the cruise, we'll also partake in a wine tasting with mussels.

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

The day trip concludes with a walking tour of Cambados, the capital of Albariño wine. We will appreciate the Igrexa de San Bieito church and the Pazo de Fefiñáns, a 16th-century palace.

At the end of the day, we'll return from Cambados to Santiago, arriving approximately 10 hours after the start time.
