About this trip
A school trip to Santiago de Compostela is a four-day programme in Galicia for secondary school groups, organised in Spain by Viajes CumLaude. We have run school tours from our Barcelona office since 1996, and your group works with a named trip manager here and a 24-hour duty phone for the whole stay.
The old town is the base. The Cathedral and Obradoiro Square, the Cathedral Museum, the university district and the Abastos Market are all inside it, and the guided bike tour on the second day covers the corners a walking group would not reach. The Museum of Pilgrimages explains the Camino to a class that is not going to walk it.
Two days go to the coast. A boat trip on the Ría de Arousa puts the group on the water; A Coruña gives an Atlantic city and Riazor beach; and the last day reaches the Costa da Morte, the Finisterre lighthouse and Langosteira beach. A Galician cooking workshop and a traditional music and dance performance carry the cultural side.
