TOUR B - CITY SIGHTSEEING & BAYONA
Excursions
- 45 - 55
- 3.5 hours
- Limited capacity
As we depart from the quayside, we will enjoy a panoramic drive through Vigo, a city attacked by Sir Francis Drake in 1585 and 1589. The city’s architecture gives a modern impression, though a few old buildings still remain.
En route to Bayona – a picturesque village at the mouth of the Muino River – we will see some of the beautiful Galician coastline. Upon arrival, we shall visit the Monterreal Fortress, which is today used as the Parador (hotel) de Turismo Conde de Gondomar.
Next we can enjoy some free time to explore the area independently. Following our period of free time, we re-board our tour coach for the return journey to Vigo. Here we shall make a stop at Fortaleza del Castro, where we can enjoy a panoramic view over Vigo Ria, before making our way back to the quayside.
TOUR NOTES: This tour involves approximately 45 minutes of compulsory walking, which will be over uneven and uphill ground, and there are a few steps to negotiate. There will be approximately 20 minutes of free time, where walking is at the discretion of the individual.
