It is the capital of both the Comarca (County) and Province of Pontevedra, and of the Rias Baixas in Galicia.

Juanjo took us on an amazing tour of the Albariño wine region. He took us to four vineyards that were unique and each made Albariño in a slightly different way. They were not commercial wineries and each one had an owner/winemaker whose passion for making Albariño shown through in their product. Juanjo took care and effort in selecting these places and really made the tour special. He has extensive knowledge of the region and was an excellent guide. For lunch, he offered us several options and we went with a local restaurant in a seaside town that had excellent seafood and was a good break in between wine tastings. The Pulpa a feira was delicious. I highly recommend Juanjo for a fantastic experience in Albariño wine country

We enjoyed our canyoning tour today very much! Finding the center and parking was very easy. Our tour started on time with a safety check and trying on the equipment. We then headed to the canyon with two guides just for us two. After another safety check we enjoyed nice views, zip-lines, abseiling, small slides and jumps. We really enjoyed the zip-lines. There were a few nice jumps, too, which were fun, but not too dificult. Let's say up to 6m or so. We had a nice chat with our guides in a small café with lots of recommendations for this area of Portugal. The Burger and sandwich were ok, but very cheap with drinks. I'm curious how the other canyons or bike tours are with this crew. They seem to be experts and very nice. Come to visit!

Wonderful experience if you've got a 3+ day trip planned to Catalonia. You'll meet up and take a 45-ish minute bus ride to up to Montserrat and go on a tour of the monastery and have a chance to buy some premium products (olive oils, liqueurs, etc.). You'll get some free time to explore on your own and then ride the train down the mountain to a local ranch where you'll get paired up with your horse. It was my first time riding a horse in about 15-20 years, but they made it as easy as possible. The horse tour through the country side lasts somewhere between 1-2 hours and the views are breathtaking.
