Private guide for Vigo, Spain

Recommended Posts

We seem to be having trouble getting a private guide to tour while visiting Vigo, Spain for the day. We don't want to leave any deposit on our credit card or some of the quotes we received were rather high compared to others. Are there taxi's near the port that will give tours? We were wondering what the cost would be to go that route.

We were in Vigo September 2011 and hired a guide to take us to Santiago de Compostela and also a winery. His name was Brendan Lowe from:

Guided Galicia: Shore Excursions From Vigo and La Coruña, Spain: Cruise Tours

He was very, very good!!

 

I didn't do the actual hiring - there were 4 couples/8 people on the tour.

 

If you haven't done so already, a suggestion is to check your Roll Call to see if you could join with others and form a small group to share the cost of the tour.

Yes I did try emailing Brendan and I never got a response. We really want a private tour so I guess if we can't book one ahead we will have to go with a taxi at the port.

I checked out the website you mentioned but they didn't seem to have anything that would work for us for Vigo, Spain plus their prices were expensive. Appreciate your help, thanks for trying.:)

We enjoyed the most wonderful Rias Baixas Region Cruise & Wine Tour with Vigo Fort and old City Walking tour during our visit to Vigo, Spain on 18 October 2014 while cruising on Oasis of the Seas. We had 4 groups (68 people total) that traveled on 4 mini-buses with different guides that were picked up at the cruise terminal in Vigo.

 

Ana Paula Tavares Nascimento did a fabulous job creating the exciting itineraries, making sure there were no overlapping capacity problems, selecting excellent guides and bus drivers, and making sure that the time schedule was met with an entertaining and informative tour.

 

Her prices for tours are very reasonable and she has many tours available in Vigo and other locations including custom tours like ours if desired.

 

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Ana Paula prior to the tours. She is very responsive and accommodating. We have become friends during this process and I can't wait to do another tour with her.

 

Ana Paula may be reached at info@europe-private-tours.com and more information is located at http://europe-private-tours.com

 

She is licensed to operate tours in Europe and I look forward to use her services at other locations.
