A Nice Tour

Published on Oct, 2024

Our guide, Paulo, was very congenial, knowledgeable and helpful. The tour of the palace in Guimaraes was worthwhile and the ancient town is beautiful. We enjoyed an excellent lunch, the other patrons were all local! Bravo old town is lovely, an amazing cathedral and of course the Sanctuary BOM Jesus do Monte with 500 steps is incredible.
