Itinerary / Route

Day 1-2

San Sebastian

Arrive midday in beautiful San Sebastian, Northern Spain. There will be a welcome meeting in the afternoon where you will have an opportunity to ask questions, socialise and receive your welcome pack. The city has amazing churches, beautiful buildings and a wide sandy beach, described as one of the best city beaches in Europe. But what San Sebastian is most famous for, is its food. It’s renowned for its Basque cuisine and boasts the second most Michelin stars per capita in the world.

Included: Welcome drinks, Walking Tour of San Sebastian, Group meal/barbecue at campsite.

Day 3-4

Bilbao

Travel to Bilbao (62 miles), with its famous Guggenheim museum, top quality food and wine, and a historic old town that you can easily explore on foot. Excursion to Plentzia. This cosy and pleasant coastal town is located just 15 miles from Bilbao, on a beautiful bay that it shares with neighbouring Gorliz. Founded in 1299, Plentzia has a picturesque and ancient old quarter of medieval origin and it’s worth disappearing into the narrow streets and admiring authentic gems such as the 16th century church of Santa María Magdalena.

Excursion, museum entrance plus group tapas/drinks in old Bilbao included.

Day 5-6

DAY 7-8

Santillana del Mar

Travel to Santillana del Mar (32 miles), known for its medieval towers, Renaissance palaces and the Romanesque Santa Juliana Collegiate Church. Explore the cobbled streets.

Entrance to the Spanish Inquisition Museum of Torture and Afternoon Tea/Coffee & cake included.

Later, head down to San Vicente de la Barquera, Cantabria. One of the best coastal towns in Spain must be San Vicente de la Barquera. This medieval village has a hilltop castle, church, beautiful beaches with a spectacular estuary and deep connections to the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route.

Group BBQ included.

DAY 9-10

Potes

Travel to Potes (51 miles), one of the most beautiful towns in Cantabria, and indeed the whole of Spain. Its streets, crossed by numerous bridges, feature centuries-old buildings and monuments. Potes was the home of the son of King Alfonso XI of Castile, and from 1445 belonged to the Marquis of Santillana, and his descendants, the Dukes of the Infantado.

Excursion/hike to The Santo Toribio Monastery (housing the largest known piece of Jesus’s cross) and Group Meal included.

DAY 11

LLanes

Travel to LLanes (39 miles). A magical medieval city, still housed within crumbling walls, with an active harbour set along beautiful waterways and fantastic beaches. We’ll take a walk along Paseo de San Pedro. This pathway, linking the town and port, takes you high above Llanes for dramatic coastal scenery and spectacular views of the Bay of Biscay, as well as sweeping views of the medieval centre backed by the Picos de Europa.

DAY 12-13

DAY 14-15

Tapia de Casariego

Travel to Tapia de Casariego (114 miles). A couple of days to relax, wander around the beautiful fishing port and enjoy a wine or two on one of the many terraces along the pier. Stroll along the town’s promenade, heading towards the fishing port and you’ll be treated to breathtaking vistas of the Tapia cliffs or bathe in the natural saltwater pool. Activities nearby include hiking, cycling or running along the Camino de Santiago.

Group Tapas and drinks in the port included.

DAY 16-17

DAY 18-19

Santiago de Compostela

Travel to Santiago de Compostela (113 miles). Destroyed by the Muslims at the end of the 10th century, the city was completely rebuilt in the following century. With its Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque buildings, the Old Town of Santiago is one of the world’s most beautiful urban areas. The oldest monuments are grouped around the tomb of St James and the cathedral, which contains the remarkable Pórtico de la Gloria.

Walking Tour & Group drinks included.

Day 20-21

Baiona

Travel to Baiona (72 miles), our final destination. A strategic port full of history, Baiona is a beautiful medieval city with a past that can be relived while walking through its charming streets. It is to this harbour that one of Christopher Columbus’ ships, the Pinta, arrived after discovering the New World. On the edge of town is the Castelo de Monterreal. Medieval walls surround what was once a royal fortress but have now been converted into the lovely Parador de Baiona.

Entrance to the Castle and farewell BBQ included.
