What to expect
Santiago de Compostela
Explore the city's most famous landmarks, including the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, Plaza del Obradoiro, Monastery of San Martín Pinario, Rúa do Franco, and Convent of San Francisco de Asis.

Visit the most important site in the city, the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Your guide will give you a brief history of the cathedral, and explain its significance to the city and the Camino de Santiago.
Plaza del Obradoiro
The Praza do Obradoiro is main square of the Santiago de Compostela old town, although not placed at the real centre. It lies to the West of the main façade of the Santiago de Compostela cathedral, and thus the Pórtico da Gloria must be crossed to get into the building from the square
This vibrant and bustling market is a gastronomical haven, offering an array of fresh seafood, meats, cheeses, and produce. Your private tour may include a visit to the market to sample local delicacies and interact with vendors.
Enjoy a peaceful walk in Alameda Park, a lovely green space located near the Old Town. Admire the well-maintained gardens, relax on one of the benches, and take in the panoramic views of the city.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
