Best Tour. Best Tour Guide. - Miguel was the BEST tour guide I've ever had - and I've been on a LOT of tours. He's very nice, knowledgeable. He communicates well, is clear with directions and meeting areas, and is generous in giving you free time to explore and take pictures.

Living history! - Lots of walking but well worth it, with tons of history and little nuggets that make everything connected for each place visited. Historic Portugal really comes to life!

A beautiful day between Braga and Guimarães with Nuno. - We took the tour of Braga and Guimarães with Nuno and we had a really great time. The tour was organized to perfection and allowed us to visit both cities at a leisurely pace, without ever feeling like we were in a rush. Nuno was a fantastic guide: helpful, friendly, and very knowledgeable, managing to tell us the history and curiosities of the places in a pleasant and engaging way. An added value was certainly the lunch together, a truly pleasant and informal moment, during which we also had the opportunity to taste and discover Vinho Verde. Absolutely recommended experience! If you are looking for a guide who will make you experience the day not just as a simple tour, but as a real experience, Nuno is definitely the right choice.
