About this activity

We will do a "complete" itinerary of La Coruña, known as the City of Cristal, due to the small glass windows that cover the houses in the waterfront. The visit will cover the old medieval quarters including Santiago's church and the María Pita square, we will then pass by the once defensive castle of San Antón, now turned into an archaeological museum, to continue to the main symbol of the city, the oldest lighthouse in the world still functioning, of Roman origin, the Tower of Hercules. This is a World Heritage Site and can be visited if you're up to it. The tour will continue driving by the ocean and passing by Riazor Beach to continue towards Mount San Pedro from where you will have an excellent viewpoint of the city. From there we'll go to visit Santa Cruz castle, to the return to the centre, passing through the small streets filled with little bars and restaurants, where you will be able to enjoy some local tapas and wine.
