Guimarães and Braga with Lunch
The historical center of Guimarães, classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, is full of history. Visit a city that combines its characteristic medieval character with the dynamism that gives it modernity. Here was where our first king was born, alongside our Nation!

Porto
At 09h00, we will pick you up at your hotel and drive you further north, to a land rich in traditions and natural landscapes.

Guimarães
This should be our first stop. The history of Guimarães is closely linked to the formation and identity of Portugal as a nation! With its medieval setting, its streets, houses and arches make it easy to see the harmony and preservation of a unique heritage. We recommend going up and visiting Guimarães Castle, a Portuguese Wonder: from its walls you'll have a beautiful view of the city. We also highlight the Palace of the Dukes of Bragança, which we'll come across along the way.
.
Braga
We will have lunch in Braga and then continue our tour. Although it is one of the oldest cities in the country, it is also a vibrant city where you can breathe culture, art and entertainment, with welcoming and humble people. As an excellent religious tourism destination, we suggest a visit to its Cathedral, Bom Jesus do Monte and the Sameiro Sanctuary. You won't regret it!

Porto
When it's time to leave, we'll head back to Porto, where our services will end.
