Santillana del Mar
3 hours
We don't want to tell you too much, just a hint! The village of the three lies has something to do with the fact that it has no cathedral, is not exactly flat and has no sea. We'll open a debate and we'll clear it up for you during the tour!

Potes
3 hours
Back in 1983, Potes was declared an Asset of Cultural Interest and until relatively recently, in 2020, it was chosen as the most beautiful inland village in Spain by Lonely Planet magazine. Let's discover together why!
Let yourself be captivated by its scenic beauty as it is located in the centre of the Liébana region, at the confluence of four valleys and the mouth of the river Deva and its tributary, the river Quiviesa. With so much river, it is only natural that its bridges are so characteristic. In fact, did you know that...? Potes means "Bridge" in Roman. -
Desfiladero de La Hermida
1 hour
On the way back to Santander we will enjoy one of the most spectacular landscapes of the North, the Hermida Gorge.
