What you can expect
Ready to dive into the heart of Galician charm with a touch of adventure? Our Rías Baixas Extravaganza starts in Santiago de Compostela and promises a day packed with unique experiences, amazing flavours, and breathtaking views.
Our first stop is a traditional winery, tucked into the lush landscapes of Rías Baixas, where the famous Albariño wine is produced. You'll get an inside look at the winemaking process and enjoy a guided tasting, where you’ll swirl, sniff, and sip the best this region has to offer. Whether you're a wine lover or just curious, this experience will deepen your appreciation for Galician viticulture.
Next, we head to O Grove, a vibrant fishing village renowned for its seafood and rich maritime culture. Explore the harbour, wander through the historic centre, and discover the whimsical sculptures dotted around the town. If you’re feeling hungry, you’ll have plenty of time to try some of Galicia’s famous shellfish in one of the local restaurants.
We then make our way to the island of A Toxa, a unique spot famous for its therapeutic muds and healing waters. Once a humble pasture, A Toxa has transformed into a luxurious wellness retreat. As we explore, you’ll learn about the island's fascinating history, from its simple beginnings to its rise as a famous spa destination. Be sure to visit the charming La Toxa Chapel, covered entirely in seashells, offering a perfect photo opportunity.
Our journey continues to the A Lanzada Hermitage, an ancient sanctuary perched on a windswept peninsula where the ocean meets the land. The site is rich in legend, including the storey of the nine waves—a fertility ritual connected to the power of the sea. It’s a magical stop, steeped in both history and folklore.
Then, we head to the picturesque village of Combarro, one of Galicia’s most iconic and charming coastal towns. Stroll through its narrow streets lined with stone granaries (“hórreos”) and traditional houses overlooking the sea. Combarro feels like a step back in time, with its well-preserved architecture and timeless atmosphere.
After a day filled with wine, history, and stunning coastal beauty, we make our way back to Santiago. Along the way, we’ll pass through the Ría de Muros, one of Galicia’s most beautiful estuaries, as we reflect on the day’s many unforgettable moments.
Want to join this unique adventure? Reserve your spot today and get ready to experience the magic of Rías Baixas—a region where history, culture, and nature come together in perfect harmony. Whether you're drawn by the flavours, the scenery, or the stories, this tour promises memories that will last a lifetime.
