On arrival
The Sireno iconic statue at Puerta del Sol square
We'll meet at "El Sireno", an iconic man-mermaid sculpture located right at the heart of the city in Puerta del Sol square. It's easy to get there and everyone knows where it is because this is the place where people from Vigo gathers and the truly best meeting point to start discovering the city and its treasures.
Best way to get there is on foot, bus (stop right in front) or taxi. If you come by car the best option is to park in Policarpo Sanz Garage which has low prices and great facilities just 2-3 minutes walking distance from the meeting point.
I bring with me a blue folder so it's easy to identify me.

Things to note
I carry a red folder / red badge to make it easy to identify me in the square.
