Columbus Tour of Huelva
If you're fascinated with history, you'll love following the footsteps of Christopher Columbus and touring the places where he prepared his great voyage, which resulted in his discovery of the Americas.
Columbus Tour of Huelva
To begin this journey back in time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Isla Canela to drive you to the fishing town of Palos de la Frontera. During the journey, an expert guide will tell us all about the main points of interest.
Once we're there, we'll follow the footsteps of the great explorer: visiting the La Rábida Friary, where he lodged for some time after the Portuguese king decided not to help him with his voyage.
Then we'll head to the Wharf of the Caravels, which today is a faithful recreation of the ancient port where he set off on his expedition. At this wharf, there are life-size replicas of Columbus' three ships: la Pinta, la Niña and la Santa María. This is why it's the perfect place to find out about the history of the expedition.
We'll finish the tour at Isla del Encuentro, which shows what the sailors would have found when they arrived in the New World.
At the end of the day, the bus will take you back to your hotels in Isla Canela.
