These two cities are amazing. We enjoyed having a private tour with our guide Inês. She was very knowledgeable and patient answering all of our questions. Best private tour guide experience ever!

We had a wonderful and informative tour with Ines. She was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The rainy weather didn’t dampen our enjoyment!

Carla picked us up from our river cruise ship, and we had a spectacular day in Braga and Guimaraes. She was professional, entertaining, and insightful. She covered the historical, social, political, and cultural aspects of Portugal and the wonderful cities we visited with tactful yet accurate remarks. We had a fantastic day. Brian

Family trip (adults only) I think the best thing out of this place was the Bom Jesus visit. it's an amazing place not only the construction itself but the atmosphere...there is a sense of peace in it. our guide was nice, if you have issues with smokers then this is not your guide, although he didn't smoke in the car or near us, he was constantly missing from taking smoke breaks and the car smelled a bit. our tour was on Christmas day so restaurants pretty much were closed, we had a hard time finding where to eat. Guimaraes isnt all that, after seeing several castles in Sintra, Obidous, and other places then guimaraes can be skip. Braga town is very cute to walk-around.

We had a great day tour to Braga and Guimaraes from Porto. Milena our guide contributed to this wonderful experience. Her enthusiasm, friendly personality, knowledge, and humor are truly exceptional. With her mom (a great driver) they form a great team and they ensured that we had a fun, comfortable, and informative day. They went the extra mile to accommodate the group, they took the initiative to drop a couple at the airport to help them save time. We highly recommend meridian4people but more specifically ask for Milena.

<p>What a glorious tour! We did not anticipate seeing such grandeur. The sights were breathtaking. The guide had sufficient knowledge of all sights. The transportation was clean and comfortable. The only drawback was that there was not a speaker system in the vehicle and people sitting in rows behind the driver/guide could not hear her voice while travelling. Otherwise, this would have been a five-star excursion.</p>

Dos ciudades con varios monumentos espectaculares. Carla nos explicó magnificamente lo que ibamos a ver y nos acompañó a los diferentes lugares. Mereció la pena el tour

Tuvimos la oportunidad de visitar Braga y Guimaraes con Tania como guía turística. Fue una muy agradable experiencia. Tania maneja muy bien el español, conduce muy bien el vehículo y además, te hace sentir en familia. Es cortés, educada, conoce la zona, te brinda información y sobre todo, no te presiona en cuanto a los tiempos. Te permite realmente disfrutar del paisaje y de los sitios turísticos que visitas. Si tuviera la oportunidad de regresar, no dudaría en volver a contratar los servicios de esta empresa y de Tania.
