What to expect

Two historical sites that played a role in changing the world are the stars of this half-day tour. You'll cross the border into Spain and visit the Cradle of Discovery Monastery and Muelle de las Carabelas, both in Palos de la Frontera, from where Columbus sailed to the Americas. At the monastery, you'll learn about his voyages and the Franciscan friars who helped him. And just a short stroll away, at the quay, you can see and board full-scale replicas of the three ships on his expedition – the Santa Maria, the Pinta and the Nina. You'll see up-close the cramped conditions the seafarers endured for months on the high seas.

Trip was good and knowledge was good although took a long time a different nationalities so rep needed to keep translating into different languages but overall the knowledge was good. The gardens and Monastery were stunning . The Christopher Columbus exhibition of the ships was very good and worth the visit . Could have done with a larger coach as I couldn’t sit by my partner as only 1 seat left on back and 1 at the front . Luckily a family moved up to let me sit down . Spoilt the trip though.

We really enjoyed the trip. The experience was very well organised and the schedule gave sufficient time to see see the monastery and to explore the boats at our own pace. Fran, our guide, was knowledgable and friendly. Would definitely recommend.
