Good place to visit
The Guide had fully explain the history during touring. This is the first time of us joining a small group tour. Great experience. We learn a lot of the castle too. Food is really great. Thanks!
Excellent day
This trip to Guimaraes and Braga went very well. Picked up directly in front of our accommodation, on time; minibus/van very comfortable. Special mention to our guide (but also good driver): Isa. She was very good company, spoke French correctly and guided us throughout the day with many explanations and information. In short, I recommend this excursion!
