Ribeira Sacra Tour
Description
Discover the stunning scenery of the Sil River Canyons on this exciting trip originating from Lugo, which also features a delightful local wine tasting.
Description
After being collected from your hotel in Lugo, you will depart the city and journey south towards the Ribeira Sacra, a region renowned for its extraordinary natural beauty, aptly named "Sacred Shores".
To fully experience this awe-inspiring area in Galicia, you will either board a tourist train (from October to May) or a boat (from June to September), embarking on a leisurely sightseeing tour of the majestic Sil River canyons.
As the river winds through steep gorges, you'll witness vineyards clinging to the cliffsides, producing the celebrated white wines with the Ribeira Sacra Denominación de Origen.
Before starting your scenic adventure on the train or boat, you will have the chance to sample the exceptional wines for which this region is known. A stop at the Regina Viarium winery will allow you to savor these exquisite wines while taking in the breathtaking views of the Ribeira Sacra from the winery's viewpoint.
Your journey will culminate with the return to Lugo, concluding approximately six hours after your initial departure.
