A Memorable Day in Guimarães with Tiago from Endless Tour

We are so appreciative and grateful to Tiago for providing us with such an excellent guided tour of Guimarães and the surrounding area. Guimarães is a lovely, historic and charming city, and Tiago made our visit much more meaningful by sharing its history, explaining the important landmarks along the way, and introducing us to local specialties to try. Tiago was polite, knowledgeable, helpful and extremely attentive to details. Throughout the day, he made sure that we were comfortable and enjoying the experience, and he was always happy to help with whatever we needed. One of the most memorable parts of the day was leaving the city and walking through nature to the dam and the old abandoned village. It was such a refreshing contrast to the historic city and gave us an opportunity to experience another beautiful side of the region. What we appreciated most was Tiago’s genuine care in making the day enjoyable for us. We never felt rushed, and the tour felt personal rather than simply following a standard itinerary. We came away with wonderful memories of Guimarães and the surrounding countryside. We highly recommend Tiago and Endless Tour to anyone visiting northern Portugal. Thank you, Tiago, for such a memorable experience!

Braga and Guimaraes One Day Tour

A 5 star experience!

I had such a pleasant day with Beatriz and João. The tour was well organized, and will save a lot of time and hassles for transportation for you. I was super lucky that I was the only participant, but the tour operator honored the reservation, which I greatly appreciate. BTW, a big big thumb up for Beatriz especially. She was lovely person first and foremost, and also knowledgeable, sociable. She made the tour by far more memorable. Highly highly recommended.

Sanfins and Briteiros Celtic Hillforts Minivan Private Tour

So . . . would you like to spend a day with an archaeologist?

My wife and I find the ancient Celts fascinating - and we were in Porto. So we specifically sought a guided daytrip to some of the nearby Celtic settlements. We didn't rent a car and we wanted more context both for the Celtic sites themselves and the culture of Portugal. Adriano's tour was perfect for us. Adriano first drove us to the Briteiros Hillfort, discussing along the way the history of the celts on the Iberian peninsula. Adriano was an excellent guide, careful to lay out the evidence and give context for what we "know" and what we "think" is probably true. This created an atmosphere of exploration and discussion, and not one of lecture. It was a very refreshing way to visit an ancient site. Next, we had an amazing lunch at a small, traditional Portuguese restaurant down some tiny road connected to another tiny road. It was beautiful, and a great way to experience a bit of modern Portuguese culture outside of Porto. Finally, we visited the Sanfins Hillfort. This Hillfort has one house rebuilt in the last few years, creating an astonishing representation of how ancient people may have lived. Adriano discussed heavily the interplay between the Iberian Celts and the Romans, and the influence the Romans had on the Hillfort layout and architecture. As a special treat - pay attention to the baths/saunas at both of these sites. It's amazing how these ancient people controlled water. A few tips - wear sunscreen - the Iberian Sun is . . . bright. And the terrain is uneven so wear good shoes. And book in advance to ensure Adriano is available. My wife and I had a great time. Spending a day with an archaeologist and historian was a great way to explore both an ancient culture and a modern culture.
