Informative and well paced tour - This was a great trip to the historic towns of Braga and Guimaraes. Alex, our guide, was knowledgeable and entertaining and paced the trip well. We never felt rushed and he factored in some free time to explore. Would definately recommend this trip

Braga Guimaraes Tour - I enjoyed touring both towns. However, our tour guide advised us that the tour would be in both spanish and english. When I signed up for this tour it specified english only. The guide did not speak english very well and we had trouble hearing him in the back of the van as he did not have a microphone. All in all I enjoyed the tour.

A tour worth Braga ing about! - Great way to see more of the surrounding area of Porto and North West Portugal. This small group tour is excellent. From Pick up to drop off our guide explained the history and background of the places visited and historical sites we visited. Dry nice lunch, comfortable mini bus, personal service from start to finish. We thought about going to. raga by train and doing our own tour, but so glad we didn’t!
