A Coruña has a Roman lighthouse that has been working for nearly two thousand years — the oldest still in service anywhere — and a seafront of glazed galleries that turn white in the sun and gave it the name City of Glass. It is a working Atlantic port with a very good appetite. Tour Travel & More organises 100% private tours of A Coruña with a licensed official tour guide, a luxury vehicle with chauffeur and a travel coordinator available 24/7.
The tower was built by the Romans in the first century and restored in the eighteenth, and it is UNESCO-listed. Down in the city, the Praza de María Pita opens onto an arcaded square and La Marina's wall of glass galleries was designed to trap the sun and keep out the Atlantic wind — an idea that spread from here along the whole Galician coast.
Santiago de Compostela is less than an hour away, which makes the cathedral, the Obradoiro and the old town an easy half day from here. With a private vehicle there is no timetable to work around and you arrive when the square is at its best, which is early or late, not midday.
East along the coast, the Praia das Catedrais opens its stone arches only at low tide, so the visit has to be timed against the tide tables and, in summer, booked in advance. Inland, Lugo has the only complete Roman wall in the world that you can still walk right around. Both fit into one well-planned day.
North of the city the coast turns wild: Cedeira, the sanctuary of San Andrés de Teixido — where tradition says you go alive or you go dead — and cliffs among the highest in Europe. It is the Galicia that most visitors never see, and it is an hour from your hotel.
With Tour Travel & More, A Coruña is the lighthouse, the glass and the coast behind it. Tell us your dates and a travel expert will design your private tour with an official guide.
