• Stand on Praza do Obradoiro, the grand finale of the Camino de Santiago
• Slip into Praza da Quintana, split between the 'living' and the 'dead'
Around 2 hours, any group size, available in Spanish and English.
No walking boots required — curiosity will do.

What to expect
In the Parque da Alameda, riddles start among century-old oaks — and the famous viewpoint framing the cathedral makes an irresistible photo task.
Praza do Obradoiro comes next: the square where thousand-kilometre pilgrimages end in tears and blisters. Trivia covers the cathedral facade, the Parador and the pilgrim rituals.
Around the corner, Praza da Quintana hides darker tales — its upper and lower halves are known as the quarters of the living and the dead.
Give it around two hours, rain or shine (this is Galicia). At the end, the leaderboard reveals which pilgrim earned their compostela.
