Overview
Discover the most popular side of Oviedo–Uvieo and immerse yourself in the 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 tourist guide dressed in the Asturian hat (the montera picona) will accompany us through the most emblematic places of Oviedo-Uvieo to get closer to the most traditional neighborhoods of its old town, where the medieval, the baroque and the contemporary come together. They mix perfectly: The square and the market of El Fontán, Los Trescorrales, La Escandalera, the Rúa palace, the church of San Isidoro, the colorful streets of Mon and Cimavilla or the exteriors of the Cathedral.
We will tour ancient Oviedo through its gastronomy, its festivals and folixes, its History and most importantly, its people, remembering real people such as Clarín, Doña Balesquida or Pachu Barbes. What are you waiting for to sign up?
