The Ribeira Sacra is where the Sil river has sliced deep canyons into inland Galicia, and this full-day trip goes to see them properly. The centerpiece for most travelers is the boat cruise through the gorge, drifting below canyon walls lined with terraced vineyards. Viewpoints above the water and time in Ourense, a city known for its Roman baths and riverside walks, fill out the day. From $64 per person.

· Roman walls of Lugo plus the tidal arches of Cathedrals beach.
Two sides of Galicia in a single day: Lugo's Roman wall, the only complete circuit anywhere, then Praia das Catedrais, where stone arches surface only when the tide drops far enough. The sea sets the schedule, so the beach stop shifts with the tide tables.

· Boat through the Sil gorge, monastery stops, then free time in Ourense.
A full day inland from Santiago, spent on water rather than asphalt. The boat threads the Sil canyon, rock walls on both sides, vineyards terraced onto slopes still worked by hand. Monasteries follow, then Ourense and its thermal springs, with free time before the drive back.
