I want to thank you for all the help and support you provided during BBC Scotland's recent broadcasts from Galicia. We relied heavily on your detailed local knowledge and logistical support. Outside broadcasts usually prove to be a logistical nightmare, but the professionalism and expertise of your staff helped ensure the experience was relatively stress-free. It is always refreshing to find people who have a passion for their job. Your enthusiasm, knowledge and commitment are a winning combination. Thanks again.

My wife and I spent two days with Rose Marie and Vicente being knowledgably guided around the Ribeira Sacra wine route and the stretch of coast close to Cambados. We found their planning, enthusiasm and overall knowledge of the area a great asset and were able to see and experience things that we might otherwise have missed. Based on this experience I would certainly recommend their tours to anyone visiting Galicia.

Dear Mystic Tours,

We recently took your tour "End of the World" and really enjoyed the trip. We took your tour by chance, from a recommendation made by our hotel, and are very happy that we did!!!! We were having some trouble getting around and finding good information about Galicia and it's history. Much of the information in the area is in Spanish, and we welcomed your tour because you speak English!!! The Tour filled in so much of our questions regarding the area. The tour provided a trip to see some scenery that we would have missed had we not taken your tour. The views of the ocean, beaches, and lovely green mountains were spectacular. The stops that you made in Caronota, O'pindo, and Finsterra were so lovely and full of history and lore. We really enjoyed your stories of the local legends, mysteries, and information regardig the people & traditions of the area. The lunch stop was fun and the Galician Fish was wonderful. We would highly recommend anyone considering a visit to Galicia to take at least one if not two of your tours. Thank you, and we will definitely take one of your tours again on our next visit!!!!!!

Sincerely,

"Wow, what a wonderful experience cruising along the Rias Baixas coastline. It was fascinating listening to the stories of the local culture and learning of its history. The catamaran ride along the coast was great as was the abundance of fresh steamed mussels they served, quite an unexpected surprise. The quiet seaside restaurant in the tucked away town of Combarro was the perfect choice for lunch. Rose Marie and Vicente entertained us the whole time with great stories of Galician myths and legends. I love that we never felt rushed at any time during the day. The evident medieval feel of Galicia is everywhere and I feel like I stepped back in time while visiting this enchanting area of Spain. I look forward to returning to Galicia. Thank you Rose Marie and Vicente for bring Galicia to life for us".

I just returned from my second visit to Galicia. Once again Vicente you have made my trip to your beautiful Galicia the highlight of my vacation as well as leaving me once again with the desire to see and learn more. The castle in Bayona and its surrounding area is breathtaking. I also enjoyed visiting the small church and learning of the tale of its patron saint, what a great surprise, and thank you. Visiting the Celtic forts from the mountain top of A Guarda was amazing and again filled with beautiful views. The lunch in the fort border town of Portugal was fantastically delicious and walking the small streets within the fort was gorgeous. I am also glad I decided to take the city tour of Pontevedra with Rose Marie the next morning; I definitely would not have experienced the city or its history had I done the self-guided tour the information booth suggested. Thank you again for making my trip so very memorable.

The guides were phenomenal – personable, knowledgeable and fun! They added their own personalities to the tours and really made it entertaining and fun. I really felt like we were touring with friends and the atmosphere didn’t feel like a typical tour where you are so scheduled and shuffled around. I really felt I got so much more out of my trip to Galicia haven taken your tour. Will definitely recommend your services and hopeful get to use them again in the future!

Just a quick note to say thank you. As someone who travels quite a bit and has taken many tours, I can honestly say it was a pleasure to tour with Vince. I had been to Santiago before but wanted see a little more then the usual. I stumbled across your website and decided to take the Rias Baixas tour on the northern coast. It was perfect, I was amazed and so glad I ventured out. I had a great time absorbing the coastline and its history and I had a great time with Vince. Not only does he know his stuff but the fact that he lived in Canada for several years created an instant bond! It also was a nice touch to see the sights with someone who knows the world I am coming from. Thank you for an unforgettable trip.
