VIGO

Is there anything to see in Vigo without doing a tour? We've wandered around the main shopping area but not found anything else - are we missing something?

Both Vigo and la (a) Coruna are the port calls for Santiago de Compostela.  You could go with a shorex if one is offered or a private tour, but should you prefer to go independently, there are train stations at both. SdeC is a fascinating place to visit and you will see many pilgrims making thir way there or around the town having walked the "camino" in full or part.  You may even see some lying in the square in front of the Cathedral, the final stop on this epic pilgrimage.

 

Even should you have no interest in any of the religios aspect, the town itself is very historic and worth a visit.
