We had a lovely 2 hours with João. We learned a lot about the history of Portugal and Coimbra. He went to University there so was able to give his perspective too.

We had a wonderful 2 hours with John walking the streets of Coimbra. Very informative and easy to listen to.

Mateus is an amazing and professional guide. He is extremely knowledgeable of Coimbra. My friend and I had a fantastic time exploring heritage sites as well as off the beaten track sites. I highly recommend Mateus as your Coimbra guide!

Jaoa is extremely knowledgeable about Coimbra and enjoyed sharing its stories and sights with us. We let him know at the last minute that we would be 30 minutes late and he was very flexible and gracious. Would highly recommend him

Mataeus our guide was great. He was so knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. He gave us an amazing tour around the city showing us all the main areas plus some hidden gems. He gave us some fantastic restaurant recommendations too. I would 100% recommend doing this tour with him.

The tour with Joao was very interesting, he is very nice and knowledgable person and gave clients a lot of valuable information,

João is a treasure trove of Coimbra knowledge and its rich history. I was in this historic city for less than 24 hours and wanted to get an understanding of what made it so special. João delivered. I’m delighted to have found him :)

We only had one day in Coimbra and we are so glad that we found Mateus to help us make the most of it. He was so knowledgeable and so generous with his time, insights, and stories. Highly recommended!

Mateus was a knowledgeable and passionate young man! His knowledge of the history of Coimbra, Portuguese history and the University is outstanding! We enjoyed the personal anecdotes and appreciated the coffee break where he treated us to local specialty tarts….delicious! Good luck and we hope you can travel the world as you intend.
