Description

Moderate activity

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

Your knowledgeable driver/guide will point out areas of interest as you travel from the pier to the Old City (Ciudad Vieja). Here, you'll disembark and follow your guide through the grand Plaza María Pita, named after the woman who helped save the city from British forces in the 16th century. You'll be struck by the imposing collection of buildings such as the impressive Town Hall, churches dating back to the 12th century and the Galician Academy, dedicated to the study of Galician culture and language. Your stroll takes you to Plaza de Azcarraga, noted as one of the city's most beautiful squares. After rejoining the coach, you'll travel past the imposing Castle of San Antón, which houses the Archaeological Museum, and stop at the fabled Tower of Hercules for photos. Continue on to Mirador de San Pedro where you'll be treated to traditional Galician tapas while enjoying the stunning views.

Special Notes:

On Mondays, Castillo de St. Anton Archaeological Museum is closed; if closed, the tour will run at a more leisurely/slower pace, with more extra time at the Tower of Hercules (photo stop) and refreshment stop. This tour is not suitable for passengers using wheelchairs, scooters or with walking difficulties due to inclines and steps that must be negotiated along the itinerary.
Sensible/comfortable shoes are recommended. In some cases, the tour itinerary may be altered or operated in reversed order.
Minimum age to drink alcohol is 18 years.
