Full Day Tour to the Galician High Estuaries - Pontedeume, Mino, Betanzos, La Coruna The High Estuaries area, situated on the Artabro gulf, is known for fishing and tourism. It offers a wide variety of scenery and a rich historical past that goes back to pre-roman times.

Your tour will take you to the North of Galicia region, along the beautiful coastline, scattered with beaches and villages. Arrive at Pontedeume, a lovely medieval fishing village, situated at the foot of the very steep Breamo Mountain.

Continue on to Betanzos where you will see Mino, a seaside town with a long beach and sandy hills and wonderful view to the Betanzos-Estuary. Betanzos is a pretty town, with interesting Romanesque and Gothic monuments including Santa Mary's Church of Azogue, and Santiago and San Francisco Church.

For lunch, enjoy a three-course meal introducing you to some of the gourmet flavors of the region.

In the afternoon you will have the opportunity to visit La Coruna, the provincial capital. This beautiful seaside city, situated on a peninsula, is divided into three parts: the old City, the center, or pescaderia, and the "Ensanche". It has an active international fishing and passengers' port, as well as wonderful galleries which enhance the façades of the houses, giving rise to its other name, the "Glass City". See Hercules Tower, the only Roman lighthouse still working in the world.
