Santiago De Compostela

Cathedral and Museum of a Medieval Pilgrimage City Enjoy a scenic drive to Santiago de Compostela, where you will see its stunning cathedral and tour the old town. Upon arrival in the beautiful medieval city, a pilgrimage site since the Middle Ages, stroll through the old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. At Plaza del Obradoiro, marvel at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela’s magnificent facade. The cathedral’s original style was Romanesque, but over the centuries it has been embellished with Gothic and baroque features, including finely carved statues of apostles and saints in the portico and on the columns. Enjoy refreshments at the Hostal de Los Reyes Católicos, a former hospital and now a luxury hotel. Afterward, you will have free time to explore the cathedral and surrounding area on your own before returning to your ship. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
