Surprising journey - Surprising journey. The guide explained the history of each city very well, and was extremely attentive. The agency staff was also very attentive in answering all my questions. I definitely recommend this tour for those who want to know Coimbra and Aveiro. It's worth it!

Coimbrã com André - Andrê Botelho did a fantastic job of taking us to the two cities. We truly enjoyed his company and benefited from his vast historical knowledge. In Aveiro we took a ride on a gondola (called “molisero”) and viewed Art Deco houses. In Coimbrã we toured the campus of Portugal’s oldest university. He guided us well through the twisty streets and alley-ways of this town. Muito obrigado, André!
