Guide Laura did an excellent job walking us through the old town of Santiago de Compostela. She took us to a coupe of spots for an authentic Spanish tortilla, lunch and coffee. She provided a lot of history as the area is rich in it. Had a great tour.

Fantastic 4 hours we spent in a company of well educated, passionate, thoughtful, caring, friendly and humorous guides who shared with us fascinating history of Santiago de Compostela, stories and legends, as well as introduced us to the delicious Galician cuisine, wine and sweets. Highly recommended tour created and guided by local company Galicia Experience. ❤️

Primero una ruta guiada por la ciudad donde te explican todo muy bien. Luego la parte gastronómica genial, comiendo en sitios muy característicos de Santiago... todo delicioso. Ellos se ocupan de todo, guardarte el sitio, pedir la comida..., haciéndote sentir muy agusto y disfrutar sin preocupaciones. Visita al interior de la Catedral también muy bien explicada. Todos fueron muy agradables y se les nota muy preparados. Muchas gracias a Javi, Helena, Sara y Manu, un 10 a los 4. Si complementarias está actividad con el tour teatralizado nocturno, os llevaréis un conocimiento muy completo de la ciudad.
