To cycle the coastal portion of the Camino de Santiago from north to south, this VBT vacation is the only game in town! On this historic route, you’ll meet VBT’s many local friends and experience the charm of Spanish traditions during your stay in distinctive historic lodgings—including noble residences and medieval fortresses. Cycling down the Galician coast, you’ll be greeted by green valleys tumbling into the sea—as well as the friends of your local Trip Leaders. Pedal through charming fishing villages—pausing to sample fresh local seafood at vibrant seaside cafés serving chipirones and arroz con mariscos paired with exquisite albariño vintages. Meet an authentic ship’s captain on a boating excursion around the Illa de Arousa—plus the Arousa Sea Women who teach you sustainable shellfishing techniques passed down through the generations.
Tour Highlights
- Tour two historic treasures of Santiago de Compostela—the Hostal dos Reis Católicos and the splendidly ornate cathedral, the city’s revered pilgrimage site.
- Cycle the scenic Portuguese Coastal Camino de Santiago, perhaps passing pilgrims along the way.
- Taste the most prestigious wines of the region: Spain’s albariño in Rías Baixas and Portugal’s vinho verde.
- Board a traditional fishing boat and pick shellfish with a local “Sea Woman” in the heart of Galicia’s seafood tradition.
- Cross the Minho River, the natural border between Spain and Portugal, by bicycle on the Friendship Bridge.
We loved this trip! Beautiful and varied biking routes; knowledgeable, competent and engaging guides, top-notch hotels, delicious food and interesting cultural activities. I wish I could do it all over again!
