Spain & Portugal: Coastal Camino de Santiago
Cycle Spanish Galicia and Portugal’s northern coast into a diverse array of landscapes and charming medieval centers. This stunning, sea-kissed corner of Iberia is laced with gentle rivers, sweeping estuaries, scenic valleys, and rolling vineyards. You’ll ride into a breathtaking world, tracing the sacred Portuguese Coastal Camino de Santiago on this bike tour. Visit the magnificent Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, taste the region’s celebrated wines and the freshest seafood, and share meals at a luxurious estate and at a local family’s home. Your seaside route is varied, too, as you embark private small boats, trace the famed Wine Road of Rías Baixas, and follow the beloved Camellia Route to lavish gardens. Historic paradores host you along the way, elegant properties rich in cultural heritage.

Spain & Portugal: Coastal Camino de Santiago
We thoroughly enjoyed our first VBT experience. The tour route was very well laid out and we cannot not say enough about how impressive our tour leaders, David and Frederico, both of whom are natives of Portugal. Kudos to VBT for the way they planned and conducted our tour!
