A walk through Santillana with Ana (Small groups)
In this walk of just two hours, we do not delve into the history of Santillana, but into its inner history, those small great stories, those curious anecdotes that build the grand edifice of History.
Each year, tens of thousands of tourists walk the cobbled streets of the town, captivated by the unique beauty of its houses, its convents, its towers, its palaces, and, of course, its collegiate church.
They walk immersed in that atmosphere that transports them to another time, another world, admiring every detail, every coat of arms, every stone... and they leave impressed by the unique beauty of this village.
But they have only seen the stage of the play.
They are unaware of the fascinating history that was enacted on this stage over twelve centuries, during which intrigues, deceptions, battles, betrayals, romances... took place, and which we will come to know and unravel throughout this walk.
A walk in which you will enjoy, learn, be surprised, and laugh.
A walk that, surely, will not leave you indifferent.
See you soon!
