About This Tour in Oviedo

Discover the most popular face of Oviedo-Uvieo and immerse yourself in authentic Asturian culture. Why is Asturias a principality? Why are the inhabitants of Oviedo called "carbayones"? Did you know that the Camino de Santiago was our “invention”? An official tour guide will accompany us through the most emblematic places of Oviedo-Uvieo to approach the most traditional of the neighborhoods of its old town, where the medieval, the baroque and the contemporary blend perfectly: The square and market of El Fontán, Los Trescorrales, La Escandalera, the palace of Rúa, the church of San Isidoro, the colorful streets of Mon and Cimavilla or the exteriors of the Cathedral. We will tour the ancient Oviedo through its gastronomy, its festivals and folixes, its history and most importantly, its people, remembering real characters such as Clarín, Dona Balesquida or Pachu Barbes.
