Chaves Day Trip

At the scheduled time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Verín in a 4x4 or a jeep to cross the border with Portugal, with a journey time of 30 minutes.

Upon arrival, we'll walk through the town to visit its prominent sites, beginning with the medieval castle of Chaves, which houses a military museum and dates from pre-Roman times, with reinforcements from the Muslim occupation.

We will then explore the forts of São Francisco and São Neutel, built in the 17th century, before walking to the Roman bridge over the Tâmega River, commissioned by Emperor Trajan. This location features a column with inscriptions marking its construction at the end of the 1st century.

Our tour will conclude with a visit to the Roman thermal baths in Chaves, known for having some of the warmest medicinal waters in Europe.

After a 3-hour 30-minute tour, we will return to Verín and take you back to your hotel.
