In a panoramic tour you will travel along Vigo, a city that expanded greatly during the last century due to the importance of its active commercial port. Vigo has been a major Spanish port for centuries and it is where great Spanish galleons returned from the New World loaded with treasure and riches. Our Vigo accessible tour is perfect for whoever has limited time to visit the city or is stopping by on a cruise-hip.
You will enjoy spectacular views from the coach of the Cies Islands, declared a National Park. Standing amidst the forest and leisure areas are the remains of the hill-forts that constituted the early settlement. The ruins of the 10th-century O Penso Castle were used for the construction of the 17th-century Fortaleza do Castro where you’ll pause for a panoramic view of the city.
Continuing through the city, you will admire the elegant facades as you pass by Plaza de España and Plaza de America. Upon arrival at 17th century Castrelos park you will have free time to wander through the stunning french style gardens, located within the grounds is the palace built in 1620 and recently restored to become Quiñones de Leon Municipal Museum.
Finally you will enjoy a walking tour through the steep, narrow streets of the atmospheric old town (O Berbés neighborhood) to see and smell the daily fish market and stop at Praza da Pedra and be introduced to probably the world most renowned oysters tasting bars and some of the best tapas places in Vigo where you can stop for a lunch break along with a chilled glass of the locally produced ‘Albariño’ white wine. That will be a perfect time to enjoy the company of your tour guide and hear tales of the Celtic civilization legacy, mysteries and culture of Vigo and the rest of Galicia.
