In the Free Tour in Santiago, you can explore the entire historic center of the city of Santiago de Compostela and make the most of your time during your visit to the capital of Galicia.
The tour starts in the Obradoiro Square, where many of the most important monuments of the city are located, such as the Cathedral of Santiago, the Hostal de los Reyes Católicos, or the Pazo de San Xerome.
