“Our guide Nuno was excellent -- personable, professional and extremely knowledgeable about history, architecture and religious art. The stops at Aveiro and Costa Nova were fun and interesting, but Coimbra was the highlight. The nominal admission to the chapel, library and palace was well worth it, but the town itself is the jewel. Beautiful views, the cathedrals, the University, the vibe of a historical cultural center. A lovely day we will always remember.”
