Great Walking Tour - Irene was a wonderful Tour Guide. She was informative and entertaining. Loved the experience. Bonus - Avoid having to line up to enter the Cathedral by taking this tour.

Great tour + seeing St. James tomb was so cool! - The guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the area. We took the tour our first day in the city. We were also able to get familiar with the sights and where we wanted to go the next day. It was so cool to walk pass St. James, the apostle's tomb in the beautiful cathedral.

Informative and well organised tour - Not much more to say than the title, but I would recommend this if you'd like to learn more about the cathedral, history of pilgrimage and the old town.

After Camino Activities - We learned much during tour from Maria. She was engaging and knowledgeable. Just enough information for 4 hours. Like 1-hour break in between Cathedral and museum tours. This gave us enough time to explore more on our own. Good job!

Great behind the scenes tour…. Great guide - Really interesting tour which got behind the facades of the cathedral, museum and old town. Great guide, Miriam, with perfect English and a fantastic knowledge. Highly recommend. Break between old town tour and cathedral/museum which meant it wasn’t 3 hours straight.

Santiago tour - Easy to find guide. Well educated and easy to understand. Well paced. Museum tour was much more enjoyable with the guide then if I did on my own.
