Tour Details

At the designated time, we'll kick off this tour in the Plaza del Obradoiro, one of Santiago de Compostela's most iconic squares. Ready to explore the city at the end of the Camino de Santiago?

First, we'll head inside the Cathedral of Santiago with a specialized guide for a full tour of its incredible interior: the treasury, the cloister, the main chapels, and so much more. You'll learn all about the history of the pilgrimage and the construction of this legendary destination that draws thousands of pilgrims every year. You'll also get to visit the Cathedral's Museum.

After a short break, we'll head back inside to visit the Pórtico de la Gloria, widely known as the crown jewel of Romanesque art in the Cathedral of Santiago. We'll dive into the story of its architect, Master Mateo, and discover all the secrets hidden within this masterpiece.

Next, we'll continue with a guided walk through the main streets and squares of the Historic Quarter of Santiago, soaking in the atmosphere of this beautiful Old Town. We'll stroll through some of the city's most emblematic squares, like the Plaza de Platerías and the Plaza de la Azabachería, and swing by the Mercado de Abastos, Santiago's bustling food market.

We'll wrap up the tour with a visit inside the Hostal de los Reyes Católicos, a former pilgrim hospital that's become one of Santiago's most fascinating landmarks.

After approximately 4.5 hours, the tour will come to an end at this last stop, and we'll say our goodbyes.
