Additional Information

The stretch connecting Gijon and Ribadesella in Asturias is also referred to as the ‘Dinosaur Coast’. This is attributed to the abundance of preserved dinosaur tracks and fossilized remnants of dinosaurs and other creatures from the Jurassic era.

On this journey, a personal guide will accompany you through the Jurassic Museum of Asturias. Here, you’ll gain comprehensive knowledge about Jurassic-era reptiles and dinosaurs native to Asturias. Following that, you’ll set out to discover genuine dinosaur tracks on a brief hike along the stunning coastline. The opportunity to make your way back via the beach and take a swim in the Cantabrian Sea, if you wish, is also available! To conclude the adventure, your guide will lead you on a tour through the picturesque fishing village of Llastres, and we’ll finish off the excursion with a sumptuous lunch.

not to miss tour with Debora - I arranged a private tour of Asturias with Debora in February 2020. I asked her to suggest a tour tailored for my 4 children whose ages range from 2 to 13. I have to say Debora is a perfect guide - she is very professional, child-oriented and professional in her field. We had a tour walking Dinosaurs which children enjoyed very much. Apart of the children's interest in dinosaurs at that time the welcoming attitude of Debora and her friendliness made the tour unforgettable. For anyone visiting Asturias, I would heartily recommend Debora as a guide.
