Journey not to forget - It was me and my husband with Nuno Silva. I have to say that Nuno Silva has turned out to be an EXTRAORDINARY PROFESSIONAL, KIND, FAMILIAR, VERY ATTENTIVE. We have walked through Aveiro and Coimbra in such a way that the tur has exceeded our expectations. We really liked that you have been giving us enough time to enjoy every corner of Aveiro and Coimbra

Amazing experience with a wonderful guide - This was a fantastic tour. Gi was amazing; She had so many wonderful insights and extensive information and history about the places we visited as well about Portugal. We had plenty of time to see everything that we wanted to and she also showed us other sights that were off the beaten track that were super. She also had loads of recommendations for other places to see and eat. Highly recommend.

Definitely would recommend. - We thoroughly enjoyed the day with our guide, Joal. The van was comfortable, he was knowledgeable and pleasant and patient with our SN daughter. The cost seemed a little steep at first but we ended up feeling it was a decent value.

An unforgettable day exploring Aveira and Coimbra with Gisela - The whole day trip was amazing. We struck a rapport with our tour guide Gisela right away. Gisela is very knowledgeable about the places but also very entertaining. She put us at ease and we were soon chatting with her like old friends during the drive between places. We took a lot of pictures on this beautiful day. We will cherish the memories of both the places we visited and our guide Gisela. We did other enjoyable tours with good tour guides but we would still have preferred Gisela!
