Fisterra on the Costa da Morte is a magical place! Wild cliffs, the lighthouse at the end of the world, and a sunset over the Atlantic that you never forget. Absolutely recommended!
Great experience. The guide explained everything in a very detailed and precise way. The Ezarus waterfall is breathtaking
We went on the tour to Finisterre and Muxia. We had a great time; highly recommended and very comfortable. We had planned to go by public bus, but it was much more difficult and expensive.
I had a great time! Both in Muxia and in Finisterre We spent the necessary amount of time in each of the places
It was an almost perfect tour, except the last stop to this random village near Santiago was unnecessary, a waste of time, not particularly notable, and the encroached on local teenagers just trying to enjoy swimming with a bunch of tourists suddenly showing up. I would really consider dropping that stop, only part of a day tour I have ever done that made me felt out of place. But the other stops were solid and a must for Galicia.
