About
Your stay in Galician lands has a mandatory visit to the area of wine, tourism and good gastronomy. With the excursion to the Rías Baixas from Santiago de Compostela you will be able to visit authentic Galician landscapes and corners that will surprise you.
You will have the opportunity to visit places that are filling up with tourists thanks to its wonderful location and its beauty, such as the picturesque fishing village of Combarro, and other areas that are already consolidated due to their visual charm and tourist tradition, such as the town of O Grove and the unmistakable Island of A Toxa.
On our excursion to the Rías Baixas from Santiago de Compostela, gastronomy is important. You will have the opportunity to enjoy a free mussel buffet on a boat and to taste its precious wine in a typical winery in the Rías Baixas. Sounds good right?

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- amandaaA5359GW0 contributionsA well organised day tripA well organised day trip. The coach is modern and comfortable and stuck very well to schedule. The guide is knowledgeable and helpful. My only feedback is that the last stop in Muros was not worthwhile. It was such a short time (about 20 minutes) so not enough time to enjoy a coffee or a glass of wine or even look around, and the place where we were dropped off was not scenic. We would have been better to just return to Santiago. Other than that, it was a great way to spend a day being driven around, which was a novelty after walking 350 km!Written October 22, 2024
- nigel0z0 contributionsGreat way to spend the day. At end of Camino.Great tour. Excellent guide and driver. Returned on time. Very happy with the stops and the time spent at each. So special to end our Camino with this day tour. Easier than walking!!Written October 15, 2024
- Kathryn L0 contributionsGood valueNoelle our guide was very informative. Her English was perfect (with a London accent after living there a spell). Despite the terrible weather she kept cheerful.Written October 8, 2024
- vickiea5220 contributionsFisterre, Muxia, and points along the wayBest bet for your money. A full day excursion filled with wonderful sites, comfortable bus, excellent guide (shout out to Noelle), and historical context that was provided in Spanish and English. I would highly recommend.Written October 1, 2024
- Patricia M0 contributionsA Peek into the PastWe visited seven different points of interest. Our tour guide Noelle was very helpful in explaining the history of each location. The stops gave us enough time to take pictures and explore on our own. Would definitely recommend to others.Written September 28, 2024

- BirminghamYoung0 contributionsWonderful trip to FinisterreThis is a wonderful tour enabling you to see the wonderful sights of Galicia. Ezaro is spectacular and the views from the lighthouse are stunning. Lucia's knowledge is amazing. We had so much detail and she translated in two languages with such ease. Her English is of a very high standard. She was so very kind to us. My husband has dementia and she personally helped us with all our needs and went above and beyond. She was a true angel and we will always be thankful for her help . Thank you Lucia from the bottom of our heartsWritten September 3, 2024
- isabellaennis0 contributionsGreat ExperienceWhat a day! Well worth the money for the scenery alone - beautiful coastline, towns & villages.

- 71tammye0 contributionsNoelle was amazing she made it lots of fun and very informative. The lunch stop was perfecNoelle was fun and informative. It was a wonderful end to our camino Frances. The day was so beautiful the sights were great. I am glad we did the longer excursion.Written May 28, 2024
- LeeHarrison50 contributionsA good tour but it needs some polish.The format of the tour was great. We saw all the sights in tour bus comfort. The scenery was dramatic and amenities were as advertised. Our tour guide Ana was pleasant. The reason I’m giving a 3 star rating is because Ana’s English was mostly unintelligible. She needs to take a class in English pro-nun-ci-a-tion.Written May 9, 2024

The guide Ana accompanied us on this wonderful tour, very complete. It was a very good experience, where Ana's kindness was appreciated, being attentive at all times and giving details of everything we were seeing. It is a 100% recommended excursion, which I will recommend to everyone I know who comes to Santiago.

Our tour with Ana was absolutely fantastic, and I can’t recommend it enough! We started at the beautiful Lagar de Besada winery, where we tasted some of the finest local wines while learning about the winemaking process. Ana's passion for the region’s wine culture really added to the experience.
Next, we headed to the stunning Miradoiro da Lanzada, where the breathtaking views over Rías Baixas left us speechless. Ana’s knowledge of the area’s history and geography made the stop even more special.
Isla da Toxa was another highlight—such a picturesque place! We then boarded a boat for an unforgettable tour around the island, where we enjoyed a delicious wine and food tasting, featuring freshly caught mussels. The combination of the sea breeze, local wine, and seafood was simply perfect.
Ana continued to guide us through O Grove and Combarro, two charming coastal towns with rich history and unique architecture. Every part of the day was well-organized, relaxing, and insightful.
Ana’s enthusiasm, knowledge, and warm personality truly made this tour an unforgettable experience. If you’re looking to explore the beauty and flavors of Rías Baixas, this tour is a must!

Everything was amazing from the beginning of the tour to the end. Apart from seeing stunning landscapes, the Ana Guide commented on their characteristics. She's certainly a great Pro. To put a paste, I think I was wrong to choose a seat on the bus, as I sat on the left side and had the feeling that most of the interesting landscapes appeared on the right side. If I had known, I would have chosen the right side so as not to miss almost anything. I would repeat again in the future

I really enjoyed this tour!!
The landscapes/scenery of Combarro, Lanzada, and A Toxa was very beautiful.
The boat trip was so fun. Actually I can’t eat seafood, so I asked the tour agency beforehand, and I brought ham and cheese, so that I could enjoyed the white wine there.
And the winery and the wine tasting were great too. You can learn the specialness of the Albariño wine.(They give you the print of the explanation in English)
Our guide was very kind and nice, and she explained equally in Spanish and English.
She explained about the history profoundly.
Personally I had trouble with visiting places by myself with trains(the frequency and availability of Renfe train caused me troubles), so I was very happy to visit many places efficiently and comfortably with this tour.
With our tour, the lunch was in the free time(you choose where to have lunch).
I recommend this tour!

Our excursion to the Rias Baixas took place on the 10th July 2023. Our tour guide was excellent, speaking both English & Spanish. The coach driver was great also. It was a truly amazing tour! Excellent value for money! Wine tasting at a family run vineyard, an hours boat trip where you can eat & drink as many fresh mussels & white wine/soft drinks as you like, learning about how mussels etc are farmed. Stop offs, where you learn about Galicias legends & celtic history. The scenery was beautiful! The tour really was FANTASTIC!!!

We visited many interesting places, the time went by very fast. Our guide shared a lot of interesting information, was very friendly and open to questions. We had enough time to walk around and have lunch. In terms of lunch, we followed our guide’s recommendations and weren’t disappointed.

That was great. Ana, the Guide, great!!
We visited the island of Toja, which we really liked. The boat ride has been great!! Very rich mussels and wine! We've been taught the batas of mussels, oysters and zamburiñas. They've explained to us how they breed phenomenal.
The beach of La Lanzaza is spectacular...!!
Very nice... a beautiful view from the viewpoint.
The village of Combarro very nice, and the visit to the great winery too.
Very good experience!!

Great day. Fell in with a nice crew and had a good laugh with them. The boat ride, mussels and wine was the best part. The rest was decent too but that made it. Had a nice dip in the sea also at a beach we stopped at.
