5A great day in Santiago
Great value for money. Learnt a lot about Santiago and the city is beautiful. Our guide Jorge is very knowledgeable, organized, entertaining and everything you would want a tour guide to be.
5Great service by our...
Great service by our guide. He was very informative and made the whole experience really enjoyable .
5Santiago de Compostela experience
Excellent excursion, as outlined on website. Great guide in Jorge. Easy to join coach in cruise terminal. Trip was scheduled for 6 hours, which it was. Would have liked more free time in Santiago, since we had a scheduled late sailaway, but we were aware of that fact.
1Unfortunate rescheduling
Our tour was unexpectedly rescheduled from 11 am to 10 am without our knowledge or consent. As a result we missed a once in a lifetime opportunity. Our money was refunded, but the damage had already been done.
1Not worth the, value , time and experience
Total cattle call,condensed and edited visit to the cathedral and museum that missed many parts and experiences , 2 hour round trip bus ride, 1 1/2 hours of free time that could have been best used for a fuller experience, should have been given the option for more individual time in the museum and cathedral…..this tour is not worth the time and or expense
3Satiago
A lot of detail info in the museum and church. Too much for us. Was beautiful and interesting to see the pilgrims/hikers arrive.

About Vigo
Vigo is Galicia's largest city, a fishing port on a deep estuary, with oyster sellers, a hilltop park and the sandy Cíes Islands offshore.
Vigo is the largest city in Galicia, built on hills that drop to the Ría de Vigo, a deep Atlantic inlet sheltered by islands. It is one of Europe's major fishing ports, and the old fishermen's quarter of O Berbés and the streets above still serve the sea. On the Rúa da Pescadería, women known as the ostreiras sell fresh oysters from stalls. Monte O Castro, a hilltop park with the remains of a fortress, looks over the city and the ría.
Top-ranked sights in Vigo: Casco Vello.
