Official tourist guides of Galicia in Santiago: cathedral tours, a food tour, the Museo do Pobo Galego and the last kilometres of the Camino.

## Who they are

Galicia Experience is a Santiago de Compostela company made up, according to its website, of a young team of art-history and tourism professionals. Its guides are accredited as official tourist guides of Galicia. It has its office on Rúa de Tras Salomé and, as well as Santiago, works in A Coruña, Pontevedra, Ourense and Ferrol, on excursions around Galicia and as guides on the Camino de Santiago.

## What they do in Santiago

Its catalogue in the city adds up to about fifteen tours. The cathedral ones range from the church and its museum to the full version with roofs and the Portico of Glory. They have free tours of the historic centre and of legends, a queimada workshop and private tours. Out of the ordinary, they organise Pilgrim for a Day, which walks down with a guide from Monte do Gozo to the Obradoiro from March to October; the Santiago Experience food tour, by day with an aperitif at the Mercado de Abastos and lunch, or by night with dinner and queimada; and a guided visit to the Museo do Pobo Galego. The visit to the Hostal dos Reis Católicos appears on its website, but is temporarily out of service because of restoration work.

## How they work

Almost all tours leave from the Praza do Obradoiro, where the guide waits with a white umbrella; those of the Museo do Pobo Galego, at the museum entrance. They are held in Spanish or English. Book on its website or by phone, on 981 11 48 73 or 625 166 440. There are no departures on 1, 5 and 6 January, 25 July or 24, 25 and 31 December. Several tours are seasonal only, from March to October.
