We rank these on four things: what you actually see, the quality of the guiding, value for money, and what real travellers say afterwards. Ratings and review counts come straight from GetYourGuide and are checked regularly — where a tour is new and has few or no reviews yet, we say so and show no rating.
We earn a commission if you book through the links below, at no cost to you. The cheapest tours on this page are near the top, which should tell you the ranking is not for sale. Bear in mind that only a handful of these start in Baiona itself; most leave from Vigo, about half an hour away.

How to combine them
- One day: the Baiona walking tour in the morning, the ramparts and a beach in the afternoon.
- Two days: add the Cíes Islands on whichever day has the better forecast.
- Three days: add a morning in Vigo — a walking tour, then the mussel-raft boat — or a drive down the coast to Oia and A Guarda with a winery stop in O Rosal.
