We will talk about the Camino de Santiago (the Way of Saint James) since this walking trail is believed to be one of the variants of the Portuguese Coastal Way of the Camino de Santiago ( Way of Saint James) where it is said that the curious pilgrims came from Vigo by boat to Cangas then followed over the hills of O Morrazo to Pontevedra.

A simply delightful walk in nature, along winding country lanes, next to trees, fields, little rippling streams, old rustic houses, with history of the village all the way. All uphill, and we saw Sean working so hard to take us up high to get a wonderful view! A surprising tour, unexpected, and thoroughly recommended.

Great tour. Sean did a great job filling us with information of this area from traditional corn milling, grape vine prep and the livelihood of the locals. Beautiful views and a nice walk on the trail with lovely scenery. A nice change from the usual village/city tours. Thank you.

Sean and his son gave an excellent tour of his village in Galicia and the surroundings. Beautiful scenery, wonderful walks, gorgeous church and amazing views. We were meant to go there last September and I’m hoping it will happen later this year. Thank you Sean.

Wonderful! I wasn´t familiar with any part of Galicia and now, I cannot wait to visit. Sean covered all sorts of topics, from regional foods and agricultural practices to history and cultural specifics. Thanks to Sean and his son.

Really interesting trip. Started off as a Sunday afternoon country stroll, with a lot of interesting facts about the flora and buildings, then we went to the 17th-century church, a lot of history there, and along part of the pilgrim trail. I enjoyed it so much I have booked another of Sean´s tours on Friday.
