Description

Explore historic Santiago de Compostela at your own pace on a 2-hour guided tour. Whether you're into art, culture, or local legends, this Galician city has something to offer everyone. Start in Platerías Square, where you’ll hear legends about the evolution of the city and the Cathedral of Santiago through the centuries. Next, take in the facade of the Cathedral, which mixes Romanesque, Gothic, and Baroque styles. Later, take a stroll through the city market, meet a mysterious cruiser, and discover the Figa and jet and what they are used for while listening to entertaining stories from your guide. Walk down the city's most emblematic streets or explore the lesser known ones, depending on the side of Santiago you wish to discover. The tour ends in Quintana Square where you'll visit the Holy Door, the place where pilgrims enter the Cathedral after their long journeys. Those who wish to enter the Cathedral can do so by purchasing a museum ticket.
