This tour will take you
to the north of Spain, where the road goes through
the rocky shores of the Bay of Biscay, open to the
winds of the Atlantic which are suddenly quieted in
the picturesque bays of heavenly beaches. The
northern ports were true diamonds of Spain's
imperial crown, a symbol of the might of the great
naval power that Spain was at the time.
We invite you to
travel through the Pilgrim's tour until reaching the
tomb of Santiago apostle, the first missionary of
Christianity in Spain. Christians throughout Europe
have been making the journey on the road to Santiago
for over 10 centuries now, to worship the Apostle's
relics located in Galicia, in Santiago de Compostela.
Our itinerary will take you through historical sites
of great scenic beauty, where the Reconquest began,
and where the first emersions of the Spanish nation
arose. Today, the Road to Santiago in its entire
length, has been declared Heritage of Humanity by
the UNESCO.
Cantabria is a
mountainous land, the superb scenery of which amazes
the imagination of every traveler, to whom the
incredible beauty of this region appears to be
somewhat unreal.
Asturias, birthplace
of the Reconquest, where the Duke of Pelayo defeated
the Moors for the first time, and re-established the
monarchy.
Galicia, a land of
fishermen and bold seafarers.
Our tour will provide
you with the opportunity to get to know cities such
as León and Burgos, ancient centers of the
Reconquest and home to medieval monuments of great
historical and artistic value.
