Private Tours from Santander
Your stay in Santander offers a unique chance to explore significant sites in Cantabria through a personalized excursion. Each tour begins with a convenient pick-up at 9 am, includes a return trip to your accommodation, and features an English-speaking guide.
Western Coast of Cantabria (9 Hours)
Our adventure commences in Santillana del Mar, renowned for its stunning beauty. As we stroll through its charming cobbled streets, we’ll arrive at the Collegiate Church of Santa Juliana, a true Romanesque masterpiece. Next, we journey to Comillas to admire notable modernist architecture, including the Sobrellano Palace, the Pontifical University, and the iconic Capricho designed by Gaudí.
Lunch will be taken in the picturesque fishing village of San Vicente de la Barquera, where you can savor the local Cantabrian cuisine. To conclude the day, we will explore the Altamira Museum and its impressive neo-cave, offering a glimpse of ancient cave paintings from a bygone era.
Santillana del Mar and Altamira Museum (4 Hours and 30 Minutes)
We will depart from Santander to visit Santillana del Mar, often referred to as "the village of the three lies." A guided walk through its enchanting streets leads us to the Collegiate Church of Santa Juliana, a prime example of Cantabria's Romanesque architecture. After this informative stroll, you’ll have free time to further discover the village at your own pace.
Our next destination is the Altamira Museum, home to a neo-cave that is a reproduction of the famed Altamira Cave, celebrated as the Sistine Chapel of cave art.
Picos de Europa Tour (11 Hours)
Your journey will lead us to Fuente Dé, set in the heart of the Picos de Europa. Here, we'll board a cable car that ascends to an elevation of 1,823 meters, offering breathtaking vistas! We will also visit the Monastery of Santo Toribio de Liébana, believed to house a fragment of the Vera Cruz according to local tradition.
Afterwards, we’ll enjoy lunch in Potes, a charming medieval town in the valley. Following that, we'll explore the fascinating interior of El Soplao Cave, a geological marvel.
Pasiegos Valleys Food Tour (10 Hours)
Our first destination is Santoña, the central fishing port and a hub of the canning industry in Cantabria. At Conservas Emilia, we’ll gain insights into the anchovy production process. The tour proceeds to Noja, with a visit to Bodegas Vidular vineyard for a wine tasting accompanied by a small appetizer.
We will then traverse the lush landscapes of the Pasiegos Valleys and enjoy lunch amidst this serene scenery. Our final stop will be in Selaya, where we'll tour the Sobaos Joselín factory, the largest bakery in the area, and sample their renowned products.
