This full-day excursion offers an immersive experience into the region's storied past and awe-inspiring natural beauty.



Begin the tour by visiting Ponte Maceira, a charming little town that serves as an essential destination for pilgrims traveling toward the end of the world. Marvel at its 14th-century bridge spanning the Tambre River and observe the picturesque scenes of medieval mills nestled within these historical settings.

Proceed along the scenic coastline of the Muros e Noia estuary to explore the historic town of Muros. Take a brief moment to appreciate the breathtaking vistas surrounding this charming locale.

Following this, reach Ézaro, where the river Xallas cascades into the sea, creating the impressive Ézaro waterfall, perhaps the most renowned attraction in Galicia and a unique feature among European landscapes.

Continuing onward, reach Cape Fisterra (also known as Finisterre), which was historically believed to mark the westernmost point in Europe. From here, immerse yourself in the rich history and culture of this location, including the presence of the well-known lighthouse and kilometer zero of the Camino de Santiago.

Finally, resume the itinerary by heading to Muxia, where you'll be greeted by a magnificent sanctuary situated at the base of the Atlantic Ocean, surrounded by three stones revered by the Galicians.

Throughout the day's journey, remember to savor local cuisine and soak up the vibrant atmosphere of each charming town along the way.
