Visit Santiago de Compostela

Santiago de Compostela is an amazing place. If you are visiting, then you probably should stay 3 nights. There are a lot of museums, the cathedral is amazing, the tour, visiting the towers (you virtually climb the roof!) and nearby cities are breathtaking. For me, Santiago de Compostela is my spiritual home. And now about the food: tapas and their cuisine are heavenly good. We found a place called Galeon Toural - they stay open until very late, and their food is delicious. Try their local wine!

The city of Santiago itself, I mean the antique centre, is small, you don't need more than two days, however plan your trip to get to know more of Galicia, There are many wonderful places... The food then, oh my God

We were walking the Camino from Porto to Santiago. Santiago is a great place to visit. We stayed in Santiago last year (2021) for four nights. We did do a tour to Finesterre and Murxia. This year we stayed one night then took the bus back to Porto. Santiago has lots to see. We were very fortunate this time at the Pilgrim's mass that we got to see the Botafumeiro. It was an incredible experience!

The staff was very helpful and the person uncharge of the Bar made us Sangria which was excellent. Also the person who was in charge of the breakfast, gave us good tips re the Church. However one point to improve is placing a tea and or a coffee making machine with Cups would add value to your hotel as well as the door locking devise ie the security card was not functioning well which also to be addressed as we came to down a few times on both days for help.other than that we were quite satisfied with the hotel and her services. I recommend

Beautiful city. Calm and peaceful. Very clean. I am not much of a traveller but needed to get away and so decided to do a solo trip. The tourism office is very helpful so please visit for any assistance. The airport bus to the city is just €1. So very economical for those on a budget. But please remember to have cash and wearing a mask is compulsory on the bus. I would recommend the walking tour as it gives an insight into the city and provides some valuable information which would otherwise be easily missed. Public toilets are very clean and no litters on the street. Visit the pilgrim museum is a must and it is free. Of course, the cathedral is the main attraction and it is free entry. There is no time limit and one can spend hours. Visitors are asked to leave when the service/mass is to begin unless they wish to stay for the entire service which is of an hour duration. There are days tours from the city if you have the time and would like to explore around. Alternatively you can hire a car from the airport which cost around €30 for a day. To summarize it, Santiago de Compostela is a must visit city and I highly recommend it.
