Tour description

Discover the magic of Compostela with amazing stories, legends, traditions, and secrets!

Let yourself be seduced by our legends tour and be enchanted by our city!

During an hour and a half walk, our local guide will surprise the group with legends, stories of “witches and sorceresses”, Galician rituals, stories of Santiago's characters, Jacobean tradition, Santa Compaña, and local traditions.

During this tour, you will discover who characters like the sorceress María Soliño or Juan Tuorum, the "holy man of Santiago", were, learn how to protect yourself from witches or the Santa Compaña, and know the story about the discovery of the tomb of the Apostle Santiago. A legends tour you cannot miss!

The meeting point would be the Plaza del Obradoiro in front of the Hostal de los Reyes Católicos.

Look for our red umbrella in the Plaza del Obradoiro!
