  We enjoyed this tour with guide Lucia Aguion Mosquera who was helpful and very knowledgeable. We were picked up at the port so it made the excursion very easy to take.

  Firstly, we and our friends also taking this tour received multiple emails directing us to meet our tour operator at 9:50 for a 10:00 tour. We were on time, and looked for the red and white umbrella as directed - which was nowhere. All tour buses kept leaving, with no sign of ours. One couple who had booked our tour booked a separate last minute tour. We tried to contact Viator, but the phone number was for an automated system that eventually hung up on us. We were frustrated and preparing to try to find another way to get to the tour destination. At 10:20, we saw someone with the umbrella. She said our tour was at 10:30, and knew nothing about the messages directing us to be there at 9:50. We then walked to a bus - which was not next to the cruise ship (as another independent tour was) and made our way to Santiago de Compostela. The tour director was pleasant, but we had difficulty understanding her accent when she spoke in English. We would have appreciated more (any) history of and information about the Camino on the way. The information we received at the destination during the tour was fairly basic, and again, difficult to understand. The earpiece technology the tour company uses worked OK, but took some effort to get operational for everyone. We did get back to the ship on time, and saw the things advertised by the tour. If I had to do it again, I would pick a different tour. I'm also disappointed in Viator. I know they only serve as a type of marketplace for individual local tour companies, but it's the Viator name on the ticket. They should at least be available for help when needed.

• A Little Disappointing

  There was a miscommunication between Viator and the tour company they used regarding the meeting time. All of the many messages we received (and there were too many) said to meet at the ships exit at 9:50 for a 10:00 am departure. The tour company didn't show until after 10, as they said it was a 10:30 departure. So that needs to be corrected!! The tour guide was very nice, but difficult to understand. We also hoped to learn more about the pilgrimage, and it wasn't really discussed. She also didn't seem to be fully informed on the area she did show us. Not the best experience we've had with Viator!!

  We left Vigo to experience Santiago de Compestelo with Christina on a small bus. She animated the drive with history and stories of the region. The tour was relaxed, informative and made for a great experience. We enjoyed “backstage” access and valuable tips for other destinations in Spain. 10/10

  The excursion was what I expected from the tour description. Maria, our guide was very knowledgeable and very understanding. We have a few people with mobility issues in our group and was very patient. In fact she told us to take our time, not to rush. We had enough free time and back on the ship before the cut off time.
