Gijón is known for its beaches, its good atmosphere and above all for its good food. That is why in this free tour we will not only talk about history or gastronomy but we will also savor it with a final tasting of local products.

👉Gijón has Roman origins and its historic center is full of picturesque streets and corners and with an unknown heritage that captivates every visitor who knows it.
