Gijon and oviedo guides

Wandering the streets of Oviedo will lend a distinctly medieval flavour to your travels. The Spanish city, founded in the 8th century, was once the heart of Astoria and remains a perfect spot from which to explore the Costa Verde coastline. Oviedo's historic quarter is compact and perfect to explore on foot. You can't miss the city's Cathedral, which is a great place to begin your explorations. Your guide will explain to you the significance of the pre-Romanesque architecture exemplified in buildings like Santa María del Naranco. Throughout your tour, your guide will make suggestions for the best spots to sample the city's world class gastronomy, especially its Cabrales, Vidiago or Gamonedo cheeses. Gijon is also just a train ride away and one we also recommend visiting! While your guide will have suggestions, the pace and content of your private Oviedo tour is up to you! Enjoy seeing what interests you most during your time in this charming city.
