        Must do if visiting Braga! - Our walking tour with Cristiane was definitely the highlight of our time in Braga! If you are visiting the city you should definitely take a tour with her company, either the walking tour or food tour! We don’t think we would have appreciated the city as much as we did if it wasn’t for this tour. Cristiane did an amazing job of bringing the long history of Braga to life through the stops in the old city while also sharing the culture of current Braga so we got a complete understanding of the city. We really loved the tour and appreciated getting a local historical perspective. The tour was the perfect length of 3 hours to get acquainted to the city and you still have most of the day free to explore more on your own.

        Fantastic 3 hour tour with local Braga resident Christiane is a must! - Fantastic 3 hour tour with local Braga resident, Christiane is a must!  She provides great insight into the history of Braga as we walk through historical sites. Tour includes a van ride to Bom Jesus and a ride on the water-powered funicular.  Don't miss out on this tour whether you stay in Porto and take the train to Braga or stay overnight.

        A great introduction to Braga - I had a visit to Braga for one day. The best way to get a first impression of this interesting and beautiful city is a walking tour with Christiane of Eco Trilha. She is very kind and dedicated. You get a lot of information and advices from her. 
The tour lasts 3 hours including a private transfer to Bom Jesus with a visit of the cathedral and the park. Bom Jesus is a must visit in Portugal's north. I enjoyed the tour very much.
All entrance fees are included. In my estimation, the value of this offer is higher than the price. 
I wish Christiane and Eco Trilha much success and many guests after the difficult time of the pandemic. 
Best regards,
Marco

        We learned a lot! - As my husband and I were the only people, we had a private tour!  The guide Cristiane was knowlegeable and we learned quite a bit.  It was also very convenient to have comfortable transportation up to Bom Jesus. Cristiane took us all around the area, not just the church.  I'm very glad we did this and would definitely recommend to people who want to learn more about Braga.

        Fast-paced informative tour of Braga and Bom Jesus - The first half is a walking tour of Braga (including the old city gate, Braga cathedral, Largo Do Paco square, Jardim Santa Barbara, and an indoor market).  Although you could easily walk around and see these things on your own, It is helpful and more enriching to have a guide explaining the history and significance of the various sites.  Christina gave some good restaurant recommendations along the way.  The second half of the tour provides car transportation and the funicular ride up to Bom Jesus, and a guided tour there.  The second half of the tour felt somewhat rushed (we only had a few seconds inside the Bom Jesus cathedral).  The funicular did get stuck for around 15 minutes so I'm not sure if that's why. Most of the time at Bom Jesus was spent walking down the steps and included an explanation of the several fountains and a look-see into the temples depicting the passion of Christ.  
The guide, Christina, fairly strictly followed her script was wasn't really open to answering questions (even though it ended up being a private tour).  There may have been a bit of a language barrier although she provided the tour in English.  At times she seemed distracted.  At the beginning of the tour she told us it was important to use the bathrooms at the market (our last stop in Braga) because the bathrooms are Bom Jesus were paid, however she forgot that.  I mention it because I highly recommend getting in a bathroom stop before Bom Jesus (where bathrooms are more difficult).  After almost 4 hours of touring it became pretty urgent for my friend who ended up having to use a disgruntled shop keeper's facility.
