Rías Baixas Day Trip

After meeting on Rúa dos Bautizados in Santiago de Compostela, we will depart for Pontevedra, the provincial capital.

We'll have a guided tour of the historic centre of Pontevedra, known for its well-preserved Medieval architecture. We'll see the Gothic Convent of Santo Domingo and the Renaissance Praza da Ferraría and Basilica of Santa María a Maior.

Next, we will travel to Combarro's port, where a boat awaits. Our boat trip across the Ría de Pontevedra will showcase coastal landscapes and Tambo Island. During the cruise, we'll partake in a wine tasting with mussels, a local delicacy.

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

To conclude the day, we'll take a walking tour of Cambados, the capital of Albariño wine, where we can admire the Igrexa de San Bieito church and the Pazo de Fefiñáns, a 16th-century palace.

We will return to Santiago approximately 10 hours after the start time.
