Experience the authentic essence of Asturias with one of the most recommended Gijón cruise excursions.
This 5-hour tour begins with a comfortable 30-minute transfer to Avilés, where you will have about 1.5 hours of free time to explore its charming old town, declared a Historic-Artistic Site. Stroll through Plaza de España, admire the Church of San Nicolás and the Camposagrado Palace, and enjoy the picturesque arcaded streets. Don’t miss the Niemeyer Center, an architectural icon by the estuary
Afterward, we continue with a 35-minute drive to Cudillero, considered one of the most beautiful villages in Spain. This fishing village will captivate you with its colorful houses cascading down the hillside like an amphitheater facing the Cantabrian Sea. Wander through narrow streets, discover breathtaking viewpoints, and soak up the magical atmosphere that makes Cudillero a true gem
Finally, we will begin the return to the ship (approximately a 40-minute journey), bringing to an end an unforgettable day filled with history, culture, and dreamlike landscapes.
At the time indicated in your booking, we will meet at the specified meeting point. Our staff will be easily identifiable by their white clothing with the ShoreSpirit Tours logo. Please arrive a few minutes early to ensure timely departure. Once we have all gathered, we will travel to the city of Avilés on a journey of about 30 minutes through the valleys and mountains of Asturias. During this time, our tour guide will inform you about the most important aspects of the Asturias region and the city of Avilés.
Enjoy approximately 1.5 hours of free time to explore Avilés at your own pace. Don’t forget to stroll along the estuary, discover the historic old town, and visit the Niemeyer Center.
After a 35-minute transfer from Avilés, you will arrive in Cudillero, a charming fishing village considered one of the most beautiful in Spain. Here you’ll enjoy approximately 1 hour of free time to explore it thoroughly, walk through its steep streets, and capture the moment with a photo.
Next, we will return to Gijón, where after about 40 minutes by bus, if the tour schedule allows, we will enjoy a short panoramic tour of the city, taking in some of its most famous sights such as San Lorenzo Beach and Isabel la Católica Park.
Our bus will drop us off in a central area of the city where, depending on the time, you can take a walk around Gijón or return to the ship using the shuttles.
Each excursion will have a different schedule depending on the ship’s arrival and departure times at the port. You will be informed of your excursion’s schedule when your booking is confirmed.
To confirm an excursion, a minimum number of seats must be booked. Once this minimum is reached, you will receive a notification confirming your excursion along with a link to make the payment.
If, due to a change in the ship’s itinerary or external reasons (such as political or weather-related issues), a confirmed excursion cannot be carried out, we will first try to find an alternative. If that is not possible, the full amount will be refunded to the passenger.
If there aren’t enough people to create a group in your language, by default all excursions will be conducted in English. All our guides are bilingual in English and Spanish. Additionally, for ships originating from Germany (mainly from AIDA and TUI cruise lines), all excursions will be conducted in German unless otherwise indicated by the team when confirming the tour.
We will provide you with a phone number so you can contact us at any time. However, before the tour begins, you will receive a message with all the information, including the location where you can find us.
Although our team will do everything possible to assist you, we are not allowed to provide support to people with reduced mobility. We recommend contacting us before booking this tour to explain your situation and look for a solution.
This tour is of easy to medium difficulty. We only recommend wearing comfortable clothing and shoes to explore the city.
