Spectacular place - We went during the week and it was wonderful because there were very few people and we could really enjoy the scenery of the lakes. We also visited the Basilica of Covadonga and we really liked it

THE BEST EXCURSION OF CANGAS DE ONIS. - The best excursion we could have chosen, the guide (Santiago) very friendly with a good sense of humor, and giving very good instructions about everything. The driver very good. The visits were totally welcoming and interesting. Without a doubt I would repeat it again. Experience, guide, driver and areas to visit out of 10!

A very nice and well-prepared guide - Very complete excursion, and very beautiful places. Due to bad weather we were not able to do the entire excursion and without any problem we were informed that they would pay us proportionally, so it was. Without any problem and 100% recommended the company Buendia Viajes
