Best end to a camino pilgrimage - Cannot recommend this highly enough! This tour was the end of my month-long Camino and it was perfect! The sights and food were fantastic, but it was the guide that made it so special. I was the only English speaker, so after she explained something in Spanish, she would follow up with the same descriptive information in English for me, sometimes sitting next to me for a private talk. Thank you for such a wonderful ending to my trip!!

Great informative trip - The guide was quite good, she explained many things we had been wondering about. Finisterre is well worth the trip as was Costa Del Mar! Beautiful! Go see it!

Unforgettable day on the Costa da Morte - A spectacular day touring the Costa da Morte. There was no better way to say goodbye to Galicia. The tour I loved, very well organized and with just the right times for each visit. Javier a 10 leading the tour, with very varied and enriching explanations. Keep it up.

very very bad - Today I went to Rias Baixas excursion and with my great surprise it did not exist. There was no one. I call the phone and nobody answers. I read about cancellations to other people down here and they say they haven't canceled. For this reason I send a copy of my Reservation, cancelled a few hours before the same tour, there puts orange umbrella very large

Poor organization - The tour was cancelled at less than 24 hours notice, leaving us with no chance of reaching Finisterre.
