Creator's Key Takeaways

This is one of those ports where you will dock right in the city center, so it's very easy to manage.

This is a city of hills, so wear your comfortable shoes. We're going to do some walking today.

I found that if I was there by 10:00 in the morning, I was great. Earlier than that, you're going to have the place to yourself.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Wear comfortable shoes due to hills and cobblestones.
Arrive at viewpoints before 10:00 AM to avoid crowds.
Try local Albariño wine and seafood tapas.
Use the escalators, ramps, or taxis if you want to avoid climbing hills.
