Isa, Juan and Fran are official, local guides with extensive experience who will make you fully immerse yourself in this incredible city.
How did Santiago de Compostela emerge and how did it become a religious, cultural and tourist reference?
There is no better place to explain the origin of the city than the Plaza del Obradoiro , a privileged place, where the 4 main characteristics of the city are perfectly defined:
The Pazo de Raxo i symbolizes political power, the Pazo de San Xerome reflects the importance of the University in local history, the Hostal de los Reyes Católicos represents their ancient hospitality and the majestic Cathedral, emblem of the city, represents ecclesiastical power .
We will tour the different squares that surround the Cathedral to admire the grandeur of monasteries such as San Martín Pinario and San Paio , also visiting the Plazas de la Quintana, Cervantes and Platerías.
Santiago is not only history, but also gastronomy, therefore, we will go to the second most visited place in the city, the Mercado de Abastos. This is an ideal place, full of flavors, noises and smells, where we will talk about the rich Galician gastronomy. In addition, you can receive recommendations on the best places to eat and drink in Compostela.
What's the finishing touch? Visit Alameda Park! We will learn about the dramatic history of Las Marías, to finish the tour with a spectacular panoramic view of the old city and the Cathedral, addressing the explosion of the Camino de Santiago and the city in the 90s.
