This was a fun way to learn about the history of the town, ending with some traditional dishes and a magical drink. Met some cool people too. Would recommend if you’re looking for a night time walking tour with a slightly different perspective than the average tour.

The tour on July 9, 2019 was wonderful. Our guide, Elena, was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and great fun. She presented everything in a very engaging way. We were very impressed. Elena picked a wonderful restaurant - the food was great and typical of Galicia. Afterwards, Elena prepared the queimada - a traditional Galician beverage involving magical incantations - like a true (good) witch. :) She's a great actress. Everything was perfect - a fantastic experience. Definitely to be recommended. Thank you, Elena.

We walked the Camino from Sarria and after the night tour everything made much more sense and I loved all the history from St James. Santiago is a very diverse city with lots of history and the old town is an experience that everybody must do. Love it and will visit again.
