One of the best ways and maybe one of the most comfortable of seeing the city and learning things about its building and history is to get on a little train that will take you through different parts of the city showing it in an unique way. It has an English speaking guide. It departs from the Praza do Obradoiro it costs â¬5 for adults and â¬3 for children between 4 and 12. Here you can check the route (http://www.santiagoturism...)
If you want a guided visit on foot through the Old District, just try one of the guided visits that the City Hall organized with an English speaking guide. These visits depend on the day and the season. For more information check this link (http://www.santiagoreserv...)
There are several guided visits, but they are only available in Spanish. For example there are a night tour or a tour visiting the different churches. Although this, if you're a big group more than 15, you could ask for them in the Official Tourism Office at Rúa do Vilar, 63 or through this email: [email protected].
If you feel like having a different view of the city you could book an aeroplane tour of Santiago de Compostela. It's expensive and prices vary by tour but it's an original way to see the city. For more information see (http://www.santiagoreserv...)
If you are one of the hundreds pilgrims that arrive following the Way of St. James you can get a diploma certifying that you completed the pilgrimage.
