O Grove

On board, you can taste this delicious freshly cooked local product, accompanied by the best Albariño wine, while marveling at the stunning views of the Ria de Arousa, the largest and most beautiful in Galicia. We will sail to the pans, the traditional wooden platforms where the mussels are grown, to discover up close how this authentic Galician delicacy is produced.
Combarro
90 min
After eating mussels, and other seafood that they can offer us, we headed to one of the most charming towns in Galicia, Combarro.
Its horreos, near the sea, its stone houses, its well-kept streets, make this small town an authentic unforgettable place in which to walk. We will have time to lose ourselves in its streets and learn about the tradition of our community.

What would it be like to come to the Rias Baixas and not get to know Illa da Toxa? We will visit the island, with its famous Capela das Cunchas, a chapel completely covered with scallop shells, as well as its bridge that connects O Grove with A Toxa. Galician waters and rafts are known worldwide, so we will take you for a walk along the coast, on a catamaran to learn about this particular way of raising the delicious Galician mussels. Here, optionally, we will have a catamaran ride of approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes where we will taste mussels, wine, soft drinks and water while we cross the Ria de Arousa.
O Grove

Rias Baixas tour, if you’ve been to finesterre, do this tour next
The Rias Baixas tour is a good alternative to the Finesterre tour.
You get to see beachside cities, ones you dont pass by on the camino.
The wine tour is very informative, and you get to have a wine tasting too.
The boatcruise offers unlimited mussels and wine, including drinks! Highly suggest to do this one too

If you want a wine-tasting experience, this is not the tour for you.
Whilst my friends and I enjoyed the day, we were very underwhelmed by the wine tasting experience itself. We expected this to be the centrepiece of the tour so were surprised to visit just one winery where we tasted only two wines. Overall, we felt that the tour was misnamed.

From 2 Cordobans, Juanjose and Maria del Mar, we made the reservation with Almudena from Tour Galicia, our guide was Noel, who I would describe with the maximum score, I take my hat off to her and the driver whose name is Suso, besides being handsome, a 10 out of 10 driver
