5Fun experience
Different, quirky and fun. Great photo opp too.
4Cozy & Dramatic
Easy logistics. Pleasant experience offered in a very cozy tavern with tables of small groups also participating . The Queimada ceremony was dramatic and we were provided with a nice guide that translate the wording used during the ritual into our language.
5This is a perfect addition to your experience in Galicia.
This wonderful experience provides insight into an old family tradition still practiced in Galician households. Maybe not with the incantations but as a social family experience after a meal. It was perfect for sharing insight into our Galician family experience with newcomers to Spain and Galicia. The venue was easy to work with and flexible when making arrangements for our large group of 10. The presentation was interesting and theatrical. Don’t miss this opportunity to round out your visit to Santiago de Compostella and Galicia.

The guide didnt speak English as promised but did his best. I truly enjoyed the spell casting even if I didnt understand what was going on at all. We were apparently messaged the meeting point but I never got it and was 15mins late while the travel agent worked it out. Not usually something that worry me but they were a bit rude and acted like I was the one who did wrong. I am sure there is a better experience to enjoy while in Santiago

About Santiago de Compostela
Santiago de Compostela, in Galicia, is the end point of the Camino pilgrimage routes, an old granite city dominated by its great cathedral.
Santiago de Compostela grew around the tomb of St James the Apostle, said to have been found in the ninth century, and pilgrims have walked here along the Camino de Santiago for a thousand years. The cathedral dominates the Praza do Obradoiro with a baroque façade facing the square; inside, the Romanesque Portico of Glory has carved figures, and a giant incense burner, the botafumeiro, swings on special occasions. The old town is a UNESCO site.
