I'm passionate about landscape photography, so I asked if we could time our visit to Cabo Peñas for sunset. They arranged everything perfectly, and the photos turned out even better than I'd hoped.

We hadn't visited any of these lighthouses before and thought the itinerary was very well planned. We stopped for lunch in Luarca, which is a beautiful fishing town. Our driver was friendly and helpful throughout the day.

A very enjoyable tour overall, although there was quite a lot of fog at Cabo Peñas on the day we travelled, so visibility wasn't great. That's obviously not the company's fault, but it's worth checking the weather forecast before booking.
