Santiago de Compostela. Casco Historico (pass by)

Our walk starts off at Obradoiro Square. Here St. James' Cathedral, World Heritage, stands. The Cathedral where the tomb of the remains of St. James the Apostle rest. You will learn the curious way how Saint James got to Galicia, when, where, and why the tradition of the Camino to Santiago started. The significance of details like the shell, the Compostela... and many more facts. First, our route takes us through the Monumental area of the City. Afterwards we will walk the old medieval streets, the Local Market (Mercado de Abastos), hidden squares, narrow streets, and the Alameda Park. The best views of the Cathedral are here so you should have your camera at hand.We are professional licensed guides that live in Santiago so we can recommend just about anything in the city of Santiago de Compostela. Where to eat, what to visit, or even about the region of Galicia. Just go right ahead and ask. You are in good hands. At the end of the visit, you are free to pay as much as you want.

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
