Braga, known as the Archbishop’s city, has been a hub for economic and religious activities for over two millennia. Guimarães, the cradle of origin, is marked by landmarks holding significant symbolic value and shrouded in myth.

Great Tour - Flexible Guide! - We had a great tour. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. He did a great job accommodating some of the changes we wanted to the itinerary as well as adjusting for the rain. He took us through things at a good pace and made sure to add a few things on as we went along because the rain prevented us from being outside as long. He found us a spot for lunch to try some of the local cuisine and drink. All in all great tour, learned a lot and had a great time, despite the rain. I cannot recommend enough.
