Excursion to the Rias Baixas very satisfactory - A PERFECT excursion, in every sense: very professional guide (thanks!) and very nice treatment. Interesting the places we toured, what I knew (I didn't know what a pazo looked like) and the boat with mussels and white wine, super, quality. Cross the Arousa Bridge and watch the sunset on the island very exciting. Every time I go to Galicia I will make this excursion and others that Toxo Travel offers.

Worth every cent - Mussel boat was the best part of the trip with unlimited mussels and drinks. The beautiful islands of La Toxa and Arousa, esp the scallop shell-covered chapel was worth seeing. Tour guide Pablo was informative and very nice. Though it made for a very long day, it was worth it to see so many sights we wouldn't have been able to do on our own.

Wonderful Adventure - We really enjoyed this tour. First and foremost, our guide Navarra was fantastic!!! We started with a nice ride out of the city into the beautiful countryside. The little towns we toured were very nice and the boat ride with food/drink was very well done. A perfect way to spend the day.

Rias Baixas - Bravo Toxo travel. From the booking process in their town centre office to the organisation and punctuality of the tour beginning to end, we had a wonderful day. Our guide, Pablo was excellent, and seeming to enjoy the whole day ensured that we did too. We were a minority English group - most guests were Spanish - but Pablo and Andrea ensured that we were given the information in English, especially if we had any doubts:-) I would happily revisit all the stops on our tour and will not hesitate to book with them again. Ignacio, Andrea and Ruben in the office were very kind and helpful at all times .Thank you. See you soon.

Best Mussels ever! - Normally it’s the cultural aspects and views that get our attention on such tours. Trust me, they did but the mussels were out for f this world. Our guide was awesome as well! Even though we were the only English speaking attendees, she made it a point not to leave us out.

Memorable - The mussel boat trip was very good. Arouza island and the pine trees along the beach were beautiful. The Guide was very helpful and friendly but the recordings were difficult to hear because of the volume of the guides spanish description.

Nice mussel boat tour, however only in Spanish - Nice interesting mussel boat tour from Cambarro. For 20 euros per person you will sail for 1.5 hours and make a round around the small island and stop at the mussel banks. At the mussel beds, one of the sailors shows how the mussel beds are used and what it looks like, as well as the oysters and other shellfish. Very nice, however, all in Spanish. Too bad English is not spoken this makes the instructive part a lot more difficult. On board you get good portion of mussels, wine and soda. This is part of the price. All in all nice experience.

Intense excursion to Rías Baixas very well led. Thank you. - It was a very complete day and well spent. Combarro is a beautiful town and we loved it. We really enjoyed our time on the boat, tasting the mussels... and that Albariño was delicious! A pleasure on the boat. I highly recommend it. Nagore, our guide, a pleasant person and brilliant at his job. I learned many things... I also returned to the island of La Toja, where I had not been since my childhood. Highly recommended, but take it easy... You don't have to see everything... Enjoy...
