When starting the trip, still crossing the Alto Minho
region, our guides will introduce you to the history of São Tiago and the
famous city that bears its name.
Upon reaching the historic centre, you will have the
opportunity to freely visit the imposing 11th century cathedral of Santiago de
Compostela. It is here that you can attend the pilgrim's mass and on religious
festive days the ritual “Bota Fumeiro”. This city is considered a UNESCO World
Heritage Site.
We will also have time for a pleasant walk through the
medieval streets of the Old Town where you can buy souvenirs from local
artisans. Then we will have lunch, a typical dish from the Galicia area, full
of rich and unmistakable flavors.
Back in Portugal, we'll have time to visit one of the most
charming border towns, surrounded by its medieval walls. We will stroll
together through its historic center and explore some of the most important
historical parts for both Portugal and Spain.
The day ends with a tasting of local delicacies and an
accompanying drink before returning to the starting point.
