A day well spent visiting Lakes of Covadonga - A visit Lake Covadongas is a must, and if you go, local ordinances require that you have to go by bus or private tour. Buendía tours took great care of us. The guide was friendly and informative. I hope the bus driver is well paid because the drive up to lakes is on windy narrow roads. I was glad to be on the bus, and not driving. You will have fantastic beautiful views along the way and you will get the history and importance of the place. It’s a day well spent!

Good visit. Something fast. - Well organized route and the guide explained every historical detail. But all too fast. I missed more free time to visit the lakes and make the route more calm. Pretty crowded place.

I would repeat without hesitation! - Very good option to visit the Lakes without queuing. The guide provides a lot of information about the Park. We could enjoy a sunny day that allowed to admire the whole landscape.

Fine but not to do it with kids - The explanation on the bus very well and the girl very friendly but the excursion was very fast, you had to go very fast and very little time for the covadonga sanctuary which is so beautiful. Besides we were with children and we could not go so fast so we missed all the explanation on the excursion and we stayed behind and could not wait.with children I would not do it again, I prefer to go on my own
