The tour will start with a view from the lighthouse of the fishing port of Cangas do Morrazo on the other side of the bay of the city of Vigo. Enjoy panoramic views of Vigo and of the fishing boats docked at the port of Cangas. Then, take a stroll along the fishing port to get a closer look at the boats and nets to catch the Octopus which is a delicacy in Galicia. Stop at the village market to see the fresh fish, seafood, meats, veggies, etc... ending out front of the Church of Santiago de Cangas. The best way to understand the Galician Culture is through it's fishing culture! Disclaimer: Spain is not a vegetarian country; therefore, this trip may not be suitable if you are vegetarian/vegan or feel sensitive about butchers, poultry, fish etc.

What a fab tour by Sean and his son. A beautiful part of the world so unspoilt. Sean was so informative and enthusiastic. I've already checked out hotels for a visit in the future. Will definitely join Sean on another tour.

A marvelous tour with a marvelous guide. What could be better than a stroll along a fishing port and into the township and then, delightfully, into the market? Fresh fish and lots of pulpo, the famed octopus of the region. And don't forget the lovely churches! Along the way I discovered that Galicia is one of the seven Celtic nations and that many place names remain. My Scots/Irish heart began to beat a little faster and now a physical trip to Galicia is at the very top of my bucket list. Thanks so much for this tour, Sean
