The Medoc wine road, located between the Gironde Estuary and the Landes forest, provides magnificent views of the vineyards.

You will visit the cellars of one of the famous estates: Château Gruaud Larose, located in Medoc district of Saint-Julien.
After a short stop at Chateau Margaux, continue your way to Château Gruaud Larose, situated on the Saint-Julien terroir just next to the village of Beychevelle, close to the 'Route des Chateaux'. While the surface of this district is quite small, it assembles the greatest concentration of 'Cru Classé' (classified growth) wines in the Medoc.
The vineyard is stretching over 82 hectares of gravely soil overlaying calcareous clay which gives a fine wine with character. As a result, it was classified « Second Grand Cru » (top ranked growth) in 1855. Throughout the centuries, Chateau Gruaud Larose has managed to impose a perfect balance between nature and the consideration of man’s work in its quest for excellence. The estate’s motto is 'The King of Wines and the Wine of Kings'. The nose and the bouquet of Château Gruaud Larose reveal the identity of its Medoc origins. An intense elixir imposing its tannic and spicy richness. A superb concentration, an unusual strength in the fruit and an astonishing final – profound and aromatic.

Château Pedesclaux
Château Pédesclaux holds the prestigious classification as a fifth growth Grand Cru Classé wine although it has a relatively short history when compared to some of its neighbouring vineyards such as Château Lafite Rothschild or Château Mouton Rothschild. The château was created in 1810 by Pierre Urbain Pédesclaux, who belonged to a family of successful wine brokers in Bordeaux. Edmond Pédesclaux was actually one of the brokers who assisted in determining the original 1855 Classification of Medoc wines.
Pédesclaux purchased the vineyard lands from the estate of Grand Puy Lacoste and in a mere fifty years the Château was recognised as a fifth growth. After the death of Pierre Urbain, his wife managed the estate until she died in 1891. The real success story of Château Pédesclaux is the story of revival. After years of neglect due to post-war economic hardship and after changing hands several times, the vineyards were slowly and carefully restored by Lucien Jugla who has managed the land since 1930. He even managed to purchase the estate in 1951.
In 2009, the property was bought by Jacky Lorenzetti, owner of Château Lilian Ladouys. He enlarged the vineyards with the purchase of 12 hectares bordering the property of both Château Lafite Rothschild and Château Mouton Rothschild. He introduced a new label and implemented an ambitious new modern labour-intensive management system and was the first estate to implement laser optical sorting.
Come and experience this modern-age success story while admiring the work of architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte, responsible for the entire renovation of the château and the winemaking facilities which were completed in 2015. This one of a kind château was uniquely designed to infuse modernity while preserving the original look of the classic building.
Not only will you discover the 100% gravitational wine making process, you will also have the opportunity to taste exceptional wines produced on this discrete domain.
- We recommend you wear comfortable shoes and clothing for the visit. The tour includes the tasting of two wines. Excursion limited to 25 people.

The famous Medoc Château Road
Today, you will visit the cellars of one of the famous estates: Château La Tour Carnet, located in Medoc district of Saint-Laurent.
To visit Château La Tour Carnet is to plunge into history covering almost 1,000 years. La Tour Carnet, originally called the Château Saint Laurent, whose famous tower was built in the 11th century, this ancient fortress was used by the English to battle the French nobility. When Bordeaux was capitulated to the King of France in 1451, Carnet, a devoted squire who stood by his lord, Count Jean de Foix, remained loyal to the King of England and refused to submit. Although Count de Foix died and Carnet and the English were finally defeated, the partially damaged castle retained its current name "La Tour Carnet". The estate changed hands several times over the centuries and even belonged to the philosopher Montaigne's brother-in-law, Thibault de Carmaing.
If the thick castle walls could talk they would tell the tales of centuries of fighting followed by flourishing trade and wine production from the 15th century onwards. Since the 16th century special emphasis was paid to the cultivation of the vine and wine quality. Luckily the Revolution of 1789 spared the estate which was owned by a Swedish nobleman, whose descendants labored to further improve wine quality. Their exceptional work was recognized and the estate was awarded the distinguished title of "Grand Cru Classé" in 1855. Bernard Magrez, the current owner, has undertaken a massive restoration and renovation program, increasing the vineyards and bringing the wine back to the excellence and undisputable quality it was known for.
Travel back in time and imagine life as it was almost 1000 years ago while sampling the fruits of labor of so many devoted and passionate generations. You will then enjoy a special tasting of three wines from the estate.
Continue your journey with a guided visit of the estates scattered along the most celebrated wine route in the world. The Medoc wine road, located between the Gironde Estuary and the Landes forest, provides magnificent views of the vineyards. You will have the opportunity to take photos of some of the most famous Châteaux of the area. Medoc vineyards are orderly and well-kept almost to the point of fanaticism, and the region's world famous châteaux produce wines that are nothing short of divine… Moulis, Listrac, Saint-Julien, Saint-Estèphe, Pauillac, Médoc, Haut Médoc and Margaux (with the celebrated château of the same name).

Once arriving in Biarritz, you will enjoy a guided panoramic tour following by a walking tour. You will discover the "Queen of resorts and the resort of Kings" and the "Grande Plage", the main beach in town, where surfers from all over the world come to ride the waves. Continue on to the hotel du Palais. Its façade overhangs the golden beach of Biarritz and recalls the idle and frivolous period of the ‘20s. Built in 1855 as a summer house for the Imperial couple, the building owes its E shape to the name of the Empress Eugenie.
The next stop will be the cozy fishing port nestled in the rocks. It is considered by many to be a separate tiny village within the city of Biarritz. Continue your walking tour to the Rock of the Virgin, a landmark in Biarritz. This "island" is attainable only by an imposing bridge which was constructed by Gustave Eiffel, the same architect who, of course, designed the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris. You will conclude your ocean front tour of Biarritz with the ancient whaling port, whaling having been an integral part of the history of Biarritz. It is an interesting as well as amusing tour packed with anecdotes from Biarritz’s colourful past. A photo-stop will be made at the lighthouse, located on the northern part of Biarritz with its panoramic view of the city.
After enjoying some free-time, you will re-board your coach to reach Saint-Jean-de-Luz and start there a walking tour through the historic town.
Saint-Jean-de-Luz was formerly a famous pirate port. The Basque "privateers" sailed under the authority of the French King and were the scourge of English merchant ships. Saint-Jean-de-Luz became a veritable "pirates nest" and many of the fine houses today were built from the revenues of the privateers. The golden age of prosperity for the town was crowned by the marriage of Louis XIV and Maria Theresa of Spain in the Basque church in 1660. The royal wedding, which took place in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, was the result of the "Treaty of the Pyrenees" signed between France and Spain the previous year. The two houses where the couple awaited the marriage can be seen on either side of the town square. The Basque church of St. John the Baptist is particularly interesting. The doorway the couple used to leave after the ceremony was immediately walled up so that no-one else could cross the royal threshold. The interior is one of the finest examples of religious Basque architecture with classic wooden balconies typical of Basque churches.
Finally, you will return to your ship after a 30-minute drive.

The elegant city of the Basque Country
From the pier, you will board your coach and start the 30-minute drive to San Sebastián.
The Kings and Queens of Spain chose San Sebastián as the royal seaside resort just as Napoleon III and the Empress Eugenie chose Biarritz. Today San Sebastián remains a brilliant and seductive city, a cultural hub of the Basque Country. After a photo stop at Monte Igueldo, which provides a panoramic view of San Sebastián Bay, you will enjoy a panoramic tour of the city.
Then, you will make your way to the old town where your guided 1-hour walking tour will start. You will visit the city's "old quarter" with its narrow pedestrian streets. You will continue to the famous streets lined with "tapas" bars, where you can enjoy some free time to experience the atmosphere while enjoying some tapas with Spanish wines or local cider (at your own expense).
Finally, you will return to your ship after a 30-minute drive.

La Rhune Mountain train
From the pier, you will board your coach and leave the shore side to venture into the mountainous part of the Basque Country, 45-minute drive.
La Rhune mountain, covered in dolmens, stone circles and other Neolithic monuments, was held to be a sacred place in the Basque mythology. Later on, considered as a ritual meeting place for witches, the mountain became, up until the 18th century, home to a hermit monk whose duty was to keep witches away and ensure good winds.
A few centuries later, the mountain became a notable smuggling route, especially for refugees during the Spanish Civil War and World War II.
Only 905 meters high, La Rhune is today a popular site for walks and hikes, but is also known for its rack railway, the Petit Train de la Rhune. Built in 1924 and perfectly maintained, this train with wooden carriages will take you to the top of the Rhune mountain, where you will enjoy a 360° panoramic view from the terraces: from the French coast across the Pyrenees Mountain range, and out to the Spanish Northern coast, far reaching in all directions.
Once arriving, you will have the choice between enjoy some free time or follow your guide during a short walking tour on the Rhune mountain.
Finally, you will return to your ship, 45-minute drive.
- This excursion involves some walking time with some steps. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. This tour is limited to 40 participants. La Rhune mountain train is not exclusive for Ponant’s guests. The train ride lasts 30 minutes on each way.

Bilbao & Guggenheim Museum
Bilbao is a constantly evolving city and a dynamic metropolis where traditions and relics of the past live side by side with futuristic buildings recognised throughout the world as icons of modernity. This excursion will allow you to admire both aspects of the economic and cultural capital of the Basque Country.
From the pier, board your coach and proceed to the famous Guggenheim Museum designed by Frank Gehry.
This imposing and unmistakable titanium, granite and glass building reflected in the river houses important works of contemporary art. Designed by American architect Frank Gehry, the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao building represents a magnificent example of the most groundbreaking 20th-century architecture. With 24,000 m2, of which 11,000 are dedicated to exhibition space, the museum represents an architectural landmark of audacious configuration and innovating design, providing a seductive backdrop for the art exhibited in it. Altogether, Gehry's design creates a spectacular sculpture-like structure, perfectly integrated within Bilbao's urban pattern and its surrounding area. It was built between 1993 and 1997 representing the recovery of the banks of the river, redeveloping them for culture and leisure. The finish of the approximately 33,000 extremely thin titanium sheets provides a rough and organic effect, adding to the material's colour changes depending on the weather and light conditions. The other two materials used in the building, limestone and glass, harmonise perfectly, achieving an architectural design with a great visual impact that has now become a real icon of the city throughout the world.
Your tour will continue with a stroll around the old town with its handsome Renaissance, Baroque and Modernist buildings, where you will have the chance to admire the façade of the Cathedral of Santiago, example of Gothic architecture, and the elegant Plaza Nueva, with its distinctive porticoes.
After the tour, you will be transferred back to your awaiting ship.

The Basque coastline
Discover the Cantabrian corniche, the fishing port of Bermeo and historic Guernica. From the pier, travel along the colorful Biscayan coastline and see the dramatic views of the Cantabrian corniche.
You will first visit Guernica, once the capital of the Basque Country. The local lords and kings met here in democratic assembly to promise to respect the special laws of Vizcaya. On 26th April 1937, during the Spanish Civil War, the town was razed to the ground by German aircraft, sent by Hitler to support Franco's troops. Discover the Picasso’s Guernika mural reproduction, illustrating the bombing and showing the tragedy of war.
During your visit, see also the petrified trunk of an oak tree that miraculously survived the horrific bombing raid. In the Park of Europe are the famous sculptures, symbolising Gernika-Lumo as a city of peace. See from outside the Casa de Juntas, where the Basque parliament has convened since 1979.
Continue to Bermeo, one of the area's most important fishing ports in the region. This colourful, working town has a large deep-sea fishing fleet that regularly operates off the coast of the Azores and southern Africa. See the popular Basque style architecture reflected in the fishermen's houses.

Santiago de Compostela
From the pier, you will board your coach and drive to Santiago de Compostela (a one-hour and fifteen-minute drive), one of the most important cities in Europe and the third most important place in the world for Christian pilgrimage.
Your tour will start by the Obradoiro Square where your guide will present you all the details of this square during a walking tour. You can admire the Cathedral, the Town hall, the Pazo (Palace of Saint Jerome) and the Hostal dos Reis Católicos. This former hospital was built in 1501 by orders of Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile to welcome unwell pilgrims and replace the old hospital which was then on the current Plaza de la Azabachería. Today it continues to fulfil its function of hosting service to the traveller, although it has a luxurious character. Every day, a dozen pilgrims carrying their compostela (pilgrim certificate) are allowed in the kitchen to graciously receive a meal.

Established over three centuries ago in 1692, Taylor’s is one of the oldest of the founding Port houses. It is dedicated entirely to the production of Port wine and in particular to its finest styles. Above all, Taylor’s is regarded as the benchmark for Vintage Port.
Noted for their elegance and poise as well as for their restrained power and longevity, Taylor’s Vintage Ports are blended from the finest wines of the firm’s own quintas or estates, Vargellas, Terra Feita and Junco. These three iconic properties, each occupying a distinct geographic location and with their own unique character, are the cornerstone of the company’s success and the main source of its unique and inimitable house style.
Taylor’s is also respected as a producer of wood aged ports and holds one of the largest reserves of rare cask aged wines from which its distinguished aged tawny Ports are drawn. The house is also known as the originator of Late Bottled Vintage, a style which the firm pioneered and of which it remains the leading producer. Based in Porto and the Douro Valley the family company is closely involved in all stages of the production of its Ports, from the planting of the vineyard, the cultivation of the grapes to the making, ageing, blending and the bottling of the wines. The family’s commitment to the future of Port is demonstrated in its single-minded dedication to the highest standards in Port production, its continued investment in all aspects of the firm’s operations and its determination to preserve the unique environment of the Douro Valley through the promotion of sustainable and responsible viticulture.

The Medoc wine road, located between the Gironde Estuary and the Landes forest, provides magnificent views of the vineyards. You will have the opportunity to take photos of some of the most famous Châteaux of the area. Medoc vineyards are orderly and well-kept almost to the point of fanaticism, and the region's world famous châteaux produce wines that are nothing short of divine… Moulis, Listrac, Saint-Julien, Saint-Estèphe, Pauillac, Médoc, Haut Médoc and Margaux (with the celebrated château of the same name).
You will visit the cellars of one of the famous estates: Château Gruaud Larose, located in Medoc district of Saint-Julien.
After a short stop at Chateau Margaux, continue your way to Château Gruaud Larose, situated on the Saint-Julien terroir just next to the village of Beychevelle, close to the 'Route des Chateaux'. While the surface of this district is quite small, it assembles the greatest concentration of 'Cru Classé' (classified growth) wines in the Medoc.
The vineyard is stretching over 82 hectares of gravely soil overlaying calcareous clay which gives a fine wine with character. As a result, it was classified « Second Grand Cru » (top ranked growth) in 1855. Throughout the centuries, Chateau Gruaud Larose has managed to impose a perfect balance between nature and the consideration of man’s work in its quest for excellence. The estate’s motto is 'The King of Wines and the Wine of Kings'. The nose and the bouquet of Château Gruaud Larose reveal the identity of its Medoc origins. An intense elixir imposing its tannic and spicy richness. A superb concentration, an unusual strength in the fruit and an astonishing final – profound and aromatic.
On site, you will first discover the estate from above, thanks to the recently built tower offering a spectacular view on the estate, its vineyards and the Gironde river.

Château Pedesclaux
Château Pédesclaux holds the prestigious classification as a fifth growth Grand Cru Classé wine although it has a relatively short history when compared to some of its neighbouring vineyards such as Château Lafite Rothschild or Château Mouton Rothschild. The château was created in 1810 by Pierre Urbain Pédesclaux, who belonged to a family of successful wine brokers in Bordeaux. Edmond Pédesclaux was actually one of the brokers who assisted in determining the original 1855 Classification of Medoc wines.
Pédesclaux purchased the vineyard lands from the estate of Grand Puy Lacoste and in a mere fifty years the Château was recognised as a fifth growth. After the death of Pierre Urbain, his wife managed the estate until she died in 1891. The real success story of Château Pédesclaux is the story of revival. After years of neglect due to post-war economic hardship and after changing hands several times, the vineyards were slowly and carefully restored by Lucien Jugla who has managed the land since 1930. He even managed to purchase the estate in 1951.
In 2009, the property was bought by Jacky Lorenzetti, owner of Château Lilian Ladouys. He enlarged the vineyards with the purchase of 12 hectares bordering the property of both Château Lafite Rothschild and Château Mouton Rothschild. He introduced a new label and implemented an ambitious new modern labour-intensive management system and was the first estate to implement laser optical sorting.
Come and experience this modern-age success story while admiring the work of architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte, responsible for the entire renovation of the château and the winemaking facilities which were completed in 2015. This one of a kind château was uniquely designed to infuse modernity while preserving the original look of the classic building.
Not only will you discover the 100% gravitational wine making process, you will also have the opportunity to taste exceptional wines produced on this discrete domain.
- We recommend you wear comfortable shoes and clothing for the visit. The tour includes the tasting of two wines. Excursion limited to 25 people.

The famous Medoc Château Road
Today, you will visit the cellars of one of the famous estates: Château La Tour Carnet, located in Medoc district of Saint-Laurent.
To visit Château La Tour Carnet is to plunge into history covering almost 1,000 years. La Tour Carnet, originally called the Château Saint Laurent, whose famous tower was built in the 11th century, this ancient fortress was used by the English to battle the French nobility. When Bordeaux was capitulated to the King of France in 1451, Carnet, a devoted squire who stood by his lord, Count Jean de Foix, remained loyal to the King of England and refused to submit. Although Count de Foix died and Carnet and the English were finally defeated, the partially damaged castle retained its current name "La Tour Carnet". The estate changed hands several times over the centuries and even belonged to the philosopher Montaigne's brother-in-law, Thibault de Carmaing.
If the thick castle walls could talk they would tell the tales of centuries of fighting followed by flourishing trade and wine production from the 15th century onwards. Since the 16th century special emphasis was paid to the cultivation of the vine and wine quality. Luckily the Revolution of 1789 spared the estate which was owned by a Swedish nobleman, whose descendants labored to further improve wine quality. Their exceptional work was recognized and the estate was awarded the distinguished title of "Grand Cru Classé" in 1855. Bernard Magrez, the current owner, has undertaken a massive restoration and renovation program, increasing the vineyards and bringing the wine back to the excellence and undisputable quality it was known for.
Travel back in time and imagine life as it was almost 1000 years ago while sampling the fruits of labor of so many devoted and passionate generations. You will then enjoy a special tasting of three wines from the estate.
Continue your journey with a guided visit of the estates scattered along the most celebrated wine route in the world. The Medoc wine road, located between the Gironde Estuary and the Landes forest, provides magnificent views of the vineyards. You will have the opportunity to take photos of some of the most famous Châteaux of the area. Medoc vineyards are orderly and well-kept almost to the point of fanaticism, and the region's world famous châteaux produce wines that are nothing short of divine… Moulis, Listrac, Saint-Julien, Saint-Estèphe, Pauillac, Médoc, Haut Médoc and Margaux (with the celebrated château of the same name).

Continue on to the hotel du Palais. Its façade overhangs the golden beach of Biarritz and recalls the idle and frivolous period of the ‘20s. Built in 1855 as a summer house for the Imperial couple, the building owes its E shape to the name of the Empress Eugenie.
The next stop will be the cozy fishing port nestled in the rocks. It is considered by many to be a separate tiny village within the city of Biarritz. Continue your walking tour to the Rock of the Virgin, a landmark in Biarritz. This "island" is attainable only by an imposing bridge which was constructed by Gustave Eiffel, the same architect who, of course, designed the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris. You will conclude your ocean front tour of Biarritz with the ancient whaling port, whaling having been an integral part of the history of Biarritz. It is an interesting as well as amusing tour packed with anecdotes from Biarritz’s colourful past. A photo-stop will be made at the lighthouse, located on the northern part of Biarritz with its panoramic view of the city.
After enjoying some free-time, you will re-board your coach to reach Saint-Jean-de-Luz and start there a walking tour through the historic town.
Saint-Jean-de-Luz was formerly a famous pirate port. The Basque "privateers" sailed under the authority of the French King and were the scourge of English merchant ships. Saint-Jean-de-Luz became a veritable "pirates nest" and many of the fine houses today were built from the revenues of the privateers. The golden age of prosperity for the town was crowned by the marriage of Louis XIV and Maria Theresa of Spain in the Basque church in 1660. The royal wedding, which took place in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, was the result of the "Treaty of the Pyrenees" signed between France and Spain the previous year. The two houses where the couple awaited the marriage can be seen on either side of the town square. The Basque church of St. John the Baptist is particularly interesting. The doorway the couple used to leave after the ceremony was immediately walled up so that no-one else could cross the royal threshold. The interior is one of the finest examples of religious Basque architecture with classic wooden balconies typical of Basque churches.
Finally, you will return to your ship after a 30-minute drive.

The elegant city of the Basque Country
From the pier, you will board your coach and start the 30-minute drive to San Sebastián.

La Rhune Mountain train
From the pier, you will board your coach and leave the shore side to venture into the mountainous part of the Basque Country, 45-minute drive.
La Rhune mountain, covered in dolmens, stone circles and other Neolithic monuments, was held to be a sacred place in the Basque mythology. Later on, considered as a ritual meeting place for witches, the mountain became, up until the 18th century, home to a hermit monk whose duty was to keep witches away and ensure good winds.
A few centuries later, the mountain became a notable smuggling route, especially for refugees during the Spanish Civil War and World War II.
Only 905 meters high, La Rhune is today a popular site for walks and hikes, but is also known for its rack railway, the Petit Train de la Rhune. Built in 1924 and perfectly maintained, this train with wooden carriages will take you to the top of the Rhune mountain, where you will enjoy a 360° panoramic view from the terraces: from the French coast across the Pyrenees Mountain range, and out to the Spanish Northern coast, far reaching in all directions.
Once arriving, you will have the choice between enjoy some free time or follow your guide during a short walking tour on the Rhune mountain.
Finally, you will return to your ship, 45-minute drive.

Bilbao & Guggenheim Museum
Bilbao is a constantly evolving city and a dynamic metropolis where traditions and relics of the past live side by side with futuristic buildings recognised throughout the world as icons of modernity. This excursion will allow you to admire both aspects of the economic and cultural capital of the Basque Country.
From the pier, board your coach and proceed to the famous Guggenheim Museum designed by Frank Gehry.
This imposing and unmistakable titanium, granite and glass building reflected in the river houses important works of contemporary art. Designed by American architect Frank Gehry, the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao building represents a magnificent example of the most groundbreaking 20th-century architecture. With 24,000 m2, of which 11,000 are dedicated to exhibition space, the museum represents an architectural landmark of audacious configuration and innovating design, providing a seductive backdrop for the art exhibited in it. Altogether, Gehry's design creates a spectacular sculpture-like structure, perfectly integrated within Bilbao's urban pattern and its surrounding area. It was built between 1993 and 1997 representing the recovery of the banks of the river, redeveloping them for culture and leisure. The finish of the approximately 33,000 extremely thin titanium sheets provides a rough and organic effect, adding to the material's colour changes depending on the weather and light conditions. The other two materials used in the building, limestone and glass, harmonise perfectly, achieving an architectural design with a great visual impact that has now become a real icon of the city throughout the world.
Your tour will continue with a stroll around the old town with its handsome Renaissance, Baroque and Modernist buildings, where you will have the chance to admire the façade of the Cathedral of Santiago, example of Gothic architecture, and the elegant Plaza Nueva, with its distinctive porticoes.

Discover the Cantabrian corniche, the fishing port of Bermeo and historic Guernica. From the pier, travel along the colorful Biscayan coastline and see the dramatic views of the Cantabrian corniche.
You will first visit Guernica, once the capital of the Basque Country. The local lords and kings met here in democratic assembly to promise to respect the special laws of Vizcaya. On 26th April 1937, during the Spanish Civil War, the town was razed to the ground by German aircraft, sent by Hitler to support Franco's troops. Discover the Picasso’s Guernika mural reproduction, illustrating the bombing and showing the tragedy of war.
During your visit, see also the petrified trunk of an oak tree that miraculously survived the horrific bombing raid.

Santiago de Compostela
From the pier, you will board your coach and drive to Santiago de Compostela (a one-hour and fifteen-minute drive), one of the most important cities in Europe and the third most important place in the world for Christian pilgrimage.
Your tour will start by the Obradoiro Square where your guide will present you all the details of this square during a walking tour. You can admire the Cathedral, the Town hall, the Pazo (Palace of Saint Jerome) and the Hostal dos Reis Católicos. This former hospital was built in 1501 by orders of Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile to welcome unwell pilgrims and replace the old hospital which was then on the current Plaza de la Azabachería. Today it continues to fulfil its function of hosting service to the traveller, although it has a luxurious character. Every day, a dozen pilgrims carrying their compostela (pilgrim certificate) are allowed in the kitchen to graciously receive a meal.
Your guide will give you a complete description of the outside of the Cathedral and will show you the Jubilee Door which is only opened for the pardons of each Jubilee Year.
Then, you will have some time at leisure to walk along the historical streets before meeting your guide at the Hostal dos Reis Católicos, for the lunch served in one of the dining rooms of the hotel.
Before boarding your coach to Vigo, you will enjoy an inside visit of the Cathedral with the tomb of Saint James, maybe the most important piece of the Cathedral, the “Portico da Gloria” whose lintels were laid in place in 1188, one of the capital works of mediaeval sculpture. You will also visit the museum of the Cathedral.
- This tour involves 2 km (1,5 mile) of walking on cobblestone streets with many steps during the Cathedral visit. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. Appropriate dress is recommended to enter religious sites (shoulders and knees covered). The lunch is included in your tour.

Jules Verne wrote that Captain Nemo’s best kept secret was in Vigo. Did you know that this is where the Nautilus submarine came to stock up on gold? In Vigo’s estuary there are dozens of sunken ships loaded with the gold from the Americas, treasures that have not yet come to light.
Back to coach, you will drive to Baiona, one of the most important and characteristic fishing villages on the Galicia coast.
Here you will visit Parador Monterreal, an imposing 16th-century building that has been converted into a hotel. The fortress of Monterreal is highly evocative of times long past, with its walls (dating from the 11th to 17th centuries) and its mediaeval towers: the Reloxo, the Tenaza and the Príncipe Cativo. The walls are ideal for a pleasant stroll around the area, known as the Monte Boi Promenade, offering perfect views over the whole of Galicia’s southern coastline, and of course the town of Baiona.
Then, you will discover old centre of the village with the remains of its ancient walls. A walk through the historic centre reveals impressive pazos (manor houses), such as that of the Correa family (from the 18th century), now the town hall with a tall tower, coats of arms and beautiful balconies; the Casa Ceta (or Casa do Perdón) from the 14th century; the Casa Mendoza (or Casa do Deán) with arched walkways beneath (from the 18th century) and a superb Baroque façade, or the Casa de Salgado (from the 17th century).
Finally, re-board your coach and start your return drive to Vigo, a 45-minute drive.

You will then be driven to the Taylor’s wine cellar. Taylor’s is the archetypal Port house and it wines the quintessential Ports. Established over three centuries ago in 1692, Taylor’s is one of the oldest of the founding Port houses. It is dedicated entirely to the production of Port wine and in particular to its finest styles. Above all, Taylor’s is regarded as the benchmark for Vintage Port.
Noted for their elegance and poise as well as for their restrained power and longevity, Taylor’s Vintage Ports are blended from the finest wines of the firm’s own quintas or estates, Vargellas, Terra Feita and Junco. These three iconic properties, each occupying a distinct geographic location and with their own unique character, are the cornerstone of the company’s success and the main source of its unique and inimitable house style.
Taylor’s is also respected as a producer of wood aged ports and holds one of the largest reserves of rare cask aged wines from which its distinguished aged tawny Ports are drawn. The house is also known as the originator of Late Bottled Vintage, a style which the firm pioneered and of which it remains the leading producer. Based in Porto and the Douro Valley the family company is closely involved in all stages of the production of its Ports, from the planting of the vineyard, the cultivation of the grapes to the making, ageing, blending and the bottling of the wines. The family’s commitment to the future of Port is demonstrated in its single-minded dedication to the highest standards in Port production, its continued investment in all aspects of the firm’s operations and its determination to preserve the unique environment of the Douro Valley through the promotion of sustainable and responsible viticulture.
