“Our day trip to Braga and Guimarães was wonderful! Jose our guide was a wealth of knowledge on the area and was very attentive to the groups needs. Sadly, because our tour was the day before Christmas, some of the major attractions on the tour were closed for Christmas. However, Jose made sure we were compensated because of this! Thanks so much Jose for the lovely day!”

“The driver and tour guide was Cristian. We had expected a large number of people but there were only 6 of us; a benefit to travelling in winter. We travelled in a good Mercedes 9 sea people mover. Cristian effortlessly moved from Portuguese to English, providing excellent information about Porto and Santiago de Compostela. We appreciated the toilet stops and how we did not have to pay to enter.

A highlight was the amazing tapas style lunch. The food…”
