When you’re spending 4 to 5 hours in a minivan, the tour guide can make or break a trip. Pedro Xavier and driver Antonio were super guides/driver on our day trip to Braga and Guimaraes. Pedro was genuinely enthusiastic to tell us about our destinations, never slipping into “autopilot.” Patient,y answered questions and even had a super Plan B when the Braga Cathedral seemed unavailable due to a wedding. Braga and Guimaraes are charming and very walkable. Highly recommend this day trip.

Our guide was on time (waiting at our apartment door when it's raining) and she is very energetic and knowledgeable. She explained everything and took us to a nice restaurant for a full course lunch. We enjoyed the Guimaraes village, the castle, the Braga Se church and Bom Jesus. We also enjoyed the sponge cake factory tour with cake and wine tasting.

<p>We were lucky to have a private tour! Eduardo was a great guide. He set no time limits on our activities and always encouraged us to take as much time as we needed to see the sites. We did not know that we would be visiting Penha mountain but that was probably the best part of the tour. Lunch was moved to Braga but it was excellent and Bom Jesus do Monte was fantastic. Highly recommended.</p>

Magnifiques visites bien organisées.
Guide Antonio exceptionnel.
A l´écoute, bienveillant et très professionnel, il a rendu merveilleuse notre journée.
Étant une personne à mobilité réduite, son véhicule a pu transporter mon fauteuil roulant électrique et j´ai donc pu participer pleinement des activités grâce aussi à la prévoyance d´Antonio.
C´est psychologiquement important de ne pas se sentir différent parce que l´on a des problèmes pour se déplacer à pied.

Hemos estado unos días en Oporto y decidimos hacer el tour por Braga y Guimarães. Fue una magnifica elección y sobre todo hacerlo con la empresa y las guías que nos acompañaron (Cati y Lina). Puntualidad, grupo muy reducido, buenas explicaciones y detalles muy interesantes, comida casera portuguesa,... Tuvimos la suerte de ver Braga en la fiesta Romana. Excursión muy recomendable.
