A worthwhile trip!! - A very enjoyable tour. Our leader was very knowledgeable and engaging. She accompanied us to some of the attractions and her recommendations for food were excellent. The stops were well spaced out and very accessible.
Highly recommend Tours Gailacia and this day trip. Thank you.

I loved - We did the tour me and my sister. They were punctual in the collection and the Guide is very well prepared, always informing facts about Galicia and the places we stopped. Whoever is in Santiago de Compostela is well worth the trip to the coast of Galicia.

Not so special - Nice Guide, but quite long on the bus. More than an hour and first fishing village and not much to see. Didn’t even take pictures.
Rest of locations figure 6.5
