Tour description

Discovering Ourense means immersing yourself in a city steeped in history, art, and tradition. Known for its hot springs and rich heritage, on this tour we'll explore its streets to discover how this city of nobles, churches, and sloping squares grew over the centuries. Will you join us?

We'll begin our visit at As Burgas , the iconic hot springs that gush scorching waters at over 60°C from the Earth's interior. Dare you touch them?

After explaining the city's origins, we'll arrive at Praza Maior , the heart of Ourense, famous for its distinctive slope. From here, we'll delve into medieval times by exploring two key buildings in Ourense's history: the Pazo Episcopal and the Church of Santa María Nai .

Our tour will take us to the exterior of the Cathedral of San Martiño, where we will discuss its history, architecture, and some of the interesting facts surrounding it.

Afterwards, there will be time to explore Praza do Ferro , the best place to discover Galician cuisine, and stroll along Rúa do Paseo , Ourense's quintessential commercial and modernist artery.

Before finishing, we will visit the imposing church of Santa Eufemia , a magnificent example of Galician Baroque, and we will finish our route in the Alameda , a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the city's atmosphere.
