Although Illa Pancha is not a very touristy place, it is something that a lover of the sea and nature cannot miss. The island is connected to the mainland thanks to a very narrow bridge and at its tip you can admire the old lighthouse, built in 1857. The herbaceous vegetation takes over this stretch of land, especially with the beautiful cat's claw.

Visita a Lugo que es un pueblo histórico famoso por sus murallas romanas completamente conservadas, declaradas Patrimonio de la Humanidad. Su casco antiguo ofrece calles empedradas, plazas con encanto y una rica tradición cultural y gastronómica, perfecta para pasear y descubrir la historia viva de Galicia

A wonderful experience.

The natural landscape is amazing and it was supposed to be a rental car. But this tour is safer and more convenient. It would be perfect if you stayed longer.

This trip can be canceled two days before !

This trip has been cancelled two days before it was scheduled . I only stayed in Santiago additional day to go for this trip. Unfortunately it did not happen . I was offered another activity instead which was okay but not what I wanted . I really was looking forward to the one I signed up for .

Excursion that left us wanting more

At first, it seemed like a good visit, but due to the weather and the guide's lack of willingness, it did not fully satisfy us. The only redeemable one was Borja, our driver.
