OUR CONXURE TO MAKE THE BEST FREETOURS: Take a container and fill it with good HISTORICAL RIGOR, add two teaspoons of imagination, a pinch of theatricality, two twigs of emotion and suspense and water it with youth and enthusiasm. Mark it, they took it out of my hands, or was it from the broom?

Tour description

To start the Dramatized Combarro Tour , we will meet at Praza Peirao da Chousa at the agreed time, there the guide will explain the geographical situation of Combarro , as well as who it belonged to in the past. Did you know that it was the only place in Galicia where royalty did not want to settle?

Now yes, welcome to the Middle Ages , we will begin to walk the narrowest street to be able to see the architecture of the granaries , how they were used and how the peasants used their imagination so that after a hard day of work they would know from the high seas which granary was the yours. Stay tuned because this has a lot of detail! Like, we will take the opportunity to know the difference between hórreo and hórrea.

Later, in the same street we will stop in front of the souvenir shops to talk about Celtic symbols , since we well know that Galicians are very superstitious, and in a land that has been completely paralyzed in the Middle Ages, talk about superstitions .

Now yes, the largest open-air cruise museum in Galicia begins! And it is that, in Combarro we have up to 7 completely different stone crosses , we will stop at each one of them: in the first we will stop to talk about its structure, in the second we will see what its particularity is and that is, this stone cross gives us That we Galicians sometimes get out of hand to drink coffee liqueur...

Now yes, taking advantage of the Pontevedra estuary and the view of the granaries. Photo moment! Take your camera and take the selfie or panoramic view par excellence and show off the Rías Baixas.

We continue along the narrowest street, called Rúa Blind , and it's because she's blind for something. Can you let me tell you? We will arrive at one of the most charming squares in Combarro, and we are going to talk about parties , because we cannot understand this place without referring to the year 1492, the discovery of America, and of course, Christopher Columbus.

The origins of Christopher Columbus remain a mystery even today for all historians, but it is said that he could be from Galicia, and specifically from Poio . So do we try to solve the mystery and fix the world? And it is that, in lands from Pontevedra is the largest Sequoia Natural Park in the world, and this was a gift from the Americans to the Galicians.

We continue with our cruises along the Rúa de San Roque, until we reach the chapel and there we will talk about diseases such as the plague, as well as the Island of Tambo . However, Tambo and Combarro hide another kind of secret. Listen, listen, black history is all the rage.

We will continue walking until we reach another of the most charming squares, but with something that terrified the population, the crossroads of 4 roads, which is why it is the moment of the history of the Santa Compaña.
