Never heard about them, but I will find out tomorrow.

Keltic:

We just returned from our cruise to Vigo and loved visiting Santiago. Really a great excursion. We used Galicia Mystic Tours and they did a great job.

Thanks for suggesting that we visit Santiago. It was worth the visit!

Now I know why you use the handle "Keltic"..........never knew about the Celtic influence in Spain! Bagpipes and all!!!

Loved your blog - it's great! We are now wondering about trying to hire a taxi to take us to Santiago (or we may need a small mini van as there could be 7 of us altogether). Any ideas about local companies/likely costs for a trip to Santiago? Many thanks.

Kruzgal:

We just returned from a cruise that stopped in Vigo and we hired Galicia Mystic Tours (http://www.toursofgalicia.net/) to take us to Santaigo and it was a great tour. Rose Marie is US born, but lives in Spain now and has a small tour company. She arranged to meet us at the port, told us the history on the drive, had a local guide take us around Santiago, provided lunch and got us back to the ship at the time we requested. One of the better tours of our cruise.

If you want more details, you can e-mail me at sunday71@comcast.net.

Keltic:

Looking forward to any information that you may have.

My e-mail should be up.....I'm getting e-mail from others right now.

Thanks.

Should you want private suggestions about companies (I think it´s not permitted on the web), just send me a private mail, and I could find out for you.

Do you know anything about Galicia Mystic Tours ?

http://www.toursofgalicia.net/santiago.html

They offer a minivan transportation to Santiago, driver/guide, lunch and 2 hour tour of Santiago.

Any other private tour suggestions?

My e-mail is sunday71@comcast.net

Thanks.

Glad to hear it. Indeed you will love it. In case you need something, just ask.

Keltic:

We are now looking into if there are any private tours to take us from Vigo to Santiago and show us about. Do you know of any? It will probably be a party of 6-8. We could have two groups.

Any advice will be appreciated!

Thanks.

John

Keltic:

After considering Vigo......it's not offering a whole lot compared to Santiago. We are going to take you up on the invitation and visit your home town. It looks like there are some great sites to see. Thanks!

We have a stop in Vigo, Spain and I have found that the Tourist Office offers 100 Minute Walking Tours, but the website says you must pre-register:

Has anyone taken these tours? I have tried a few e-mails (English and Spanish) to the Office of Tourism to pre-register, but they have not responded to me.

Anyone with ideas or experience in this port?

Thanks!
