What you can expect

Asturias es la región que lo tiene todo. Descubre por qué dicen que el paraíso está en Asturias en una excursión de día completo que te llevará por sus lagos azules, colinas verdes y espectacular costa. Maravíllate con las montañas de Covadonga y descubre los secretos que guardan.

La excursión comienza desde Santander y te llevará por muchos tesoros de Cantabria y Asturias hasta llegar a Llanes.

Disfruta de las vistas desde el autobús y aprende sobre la historia de esta región mientras conduces hacia el Parque Nacional de los Picos de Europa en Covadonga y subes al Mirador de Entrelagos – el mirador entre 2 lagos – donde contemplarás Ercina y Enol abajo.

Después de visitar los Lagos de Covadonga, baja hasta el Real Sitio de Covadonga, hogar de la Virgen de Covadonga. Popularmente conocida como La Santina, este sitio cuenta con una majestuosa Basílica construida con piedras de las montañas circundantes.

Nuestra siguiente parada es Cangas de Onís. Antiguamente capital del Reino de Asturias, este pequeño pueblo alberga un encantador puente con una historia increíble. Aprende todo sobre este lugar de la mano de tu guía y no te vayas sin una foto de la famosa Cruz de la Victoria.

Después de la visita guiada y el tiempo libre para almorzar, comenzaremos nuestro viaje de regreso. Relájate en el autobús mientras te despides de la región de Asturias.
