Step by Step

Enjoy this excursion from Santiago de Compostela to the Costa da Morte, a stretch of coastline that owes its name to the numerous shipwrecks that have occurred over the centuries. The entire itinerary lasts approximately 9 and a half hours and takes place aboard an air-conditioned bus.

This magical tour will take you to discover the most spectacular scenery, fascinating history and authentic Galician tradition. This journey, full of legends and natural beauty, starts at Pontemaceira, that medieval bridge that unites history and nature, marking the beginning of an unforgettable adventure.

Along the way, you will visit emblematic places such as the Sanctuary of the Virgen de la Barca in Muxía, where the power of the Atlantic meets spirituality, and the mythical Cape Finisterre, known as the End of the World by the Romans.

You will also have the opportunity to enjoy the local gastronomy (not included in the price) in the village of Finisterre, famous for its seafood and seafaring atmosphere, and to admire the imposing Ézaro Waterfall, a unique natural phenomenon in Europe.

  • Cape Finisterre: From its lighthouse, contemplate a 180° view over the Atlantic, where the horizon merges with Celtic and Roman legends that connect you with ancestral times.
  • Ézaro waterfall: Enjoy the only spectacle in Europe where a river flows directly into the ocean in the form of a waterfall, enhanced by a modern footbridge that brings you closer to this natural phenomenon.
  • Hórreo de Carnota: Discover a masterpiece of Galician architecture, witness to rural tradition and vital in the preservation of local products.
  • Muros: Immerse yourself in the seafaring essence of this charming village, where its historic quarter and arches invite you to experience the authenticity of life by the sea.

This tour is the perfect option for those who wish to explore the diversity of landscapes, traditions and flavours that make Galicia a unique and unforgettable destination.

    It was a different experience, very entertaining and with a lot of learning along the way. A pity that the weather was not on our side on the day we went.

    It was quite a fun experience, although a bit exhausting. Recommended to do it once, it is worthwhile to get to know these places and learn about their culture. We are happy with our choice.
