Full description
This trip crosses into Galicia by minibus for a full day in Santiago de Compostela, the pilgrimage destination. You get free time to explore the cathedral area and the UNESCO-listed historic centre independently, then stop at Valença do Minho on the return for a guided introduction to its fortified old town.
Return transport and a guide are included, along with a Porto walking-tour voucher. Reviewers stress the long distance and a full-day commitment of around ten hours.
