Overview
The guided tour focused on the world of the Templars to discover their influence on the Camino de Santiago and in the city itself at the end of the Camino.
The well-known Game of the Goose has a lot to do with the Camino de Santiago itself. Despite the fact that it is a very common game and widespread throughout Spain, most are unaware of its true Templar origin.
The tour goes through the lesser-known areas of the old town of Santiago but which, equally, have a lot of charm and will surprise visitors with their stories and curiosities: Porta do Camiño (entrance of the French, Primitive and Northern Way in the old area of Santiago), traces of the Templars in the churches, the old hospital of San Roque, the small Jewish quarter of Santiago, the convent of San Francisco and many more secrets that will be revealed at sunset.
