    Irene was passionate and knowledgeable about the area. She told us so much and pointed out many key points around the area. We returned to her recommendations the next few days: The nuns who sell pastries, the many beautiful churches and museums. On our own, we visited the fun Museo of Maxia (magic), Brito Church, Church of San Francisco, attended Mass at the hostel and the Museo of the Diocese.

    Fantastic tour! Maria Beloy was an excellent guide—she is personable and engaging and has a terrific command of Santiago, St. James, and pilgrimage history, as well as contemporary knowledge about restaurants, shops, etc. Maria speaks idiomatic English perfectly. Highly recommend.

    Carolina was our tour guide and she was the best! She answered all our questions and knew a lot about the city and the cathedral. We were lucky to have her as our tour guide.
