5.00Want to know about Galician food and the history of the region? This is the tour for you. Our personable and knowledgeable guide, Silvia, toured us around the old city of Santiago de Compestela, going thru major squares, streets and tiny alleys while giving us a brief and colorful history, along the way we stopped a some well chosen restaurants that featured Galacian foods of different types. Never hurried plenty of time to ask most any question, Silvia was always on point. Learned a lot, tasted a lot and really enjoyed the tour.
Wonderful tour. Will do it again next year

5.00Silvia told us a lot about the food culture but also about the history of Galicia and especially Santiago de Compostela. Every question could be answered. Since we had been in Galicia for a few days, we already knew many of the region's specialties, but Silvia showed us some very special dishes that we would never have discovered as simple tourists. The English skills of the host are outstanding.
Wonderful Galacian Food & Drink Experience

5.00We had an amazing food and drink experience! Silvia was so knowledgeable and friendly. She knew both the history and the current events of the foods and culture and gave us a deep understanding of the Galacian ways. We stopped at 4 places thinking we would get one drink and one tapa at each but we had so much food we couldn’t eat all of it! I would highly recommend this tour!
