They say Coimbra is the city of students and poets, but it’s so much more when you walk its winding stone streets. From the breathtaking views at the University to the hauntingly beautiful sounds of Fado echoing through the Almedina, I’d love to show you the soul of this city. Who’s up for a walk through history with me?"

Coimbra is calling! I’m heading out to explore the historic center and the University hills. There’s no better way to see it than with good company. Want to join me for a stroll and some great stories?"

I’m heading out to explore the historic cente. Want to join me for a stroll and some great stories?"

Our journey will take us from the heights of the University of Coimbra, one of the oldest in the world, down through the Old Town. We’ll marvel at the golden interiors of the Joanina Library, wander past the imposing Old Cathedral, and lose ourselves in the narrow, flower-draped 'quebra-costas' streets. To top it off, we'll cross the bridge for a stunning sunset view over the Mondego River, where the city lights begin to reflect on the water, perfectly capturing the magic of Coimbra."

Hello, I'm Magda and I would be so pleased to host your in my hometown Porto and/or other towns in the Northern Portugal. I graduated in History of Art at Faculty of Humanities, University of Porto, worked as a teacher, art gallerist, bookseller and finally as a tour guide (and I loved all these previous jobs!). My tours are focused on Architecture, Art and History, but the charm of Porto goes beyond that: traditions, legends, secrets, food... My main purpose is to show you what really makes us different and unique. (sometimes I'm the traveler, taking pictures of my favorite spots - you check the gallery :-) I'm available and pleased to create the best plan for you, according to your preferences. Looking forward to meeting you! Best

Joao M.

Hello, I'm João. I was born in Coimbra, and I have a degree in Anthropology, and master's degree in Cultural heritage, management and programming. I am a certified guide. I love meeting new people and helping them get to know my country better. If you enjoy history and want to learn more about our culture and traditions, I think my tours are the best choice for you. I work mainly in the city of Coimbra, and around. I am based in Coimbra region, but I am also available for tours in Lisbon, Aveiro, or Porto. I will be happily suggesting you a full customized tour in these 3 cities. Please send me a request, just customize your request. This is just a suggestion, but If you are very interested in history and would like to take an original tour in Lisbon, we can visit various archaeological sites in Lisbon (such as Roman cisterns, city walls, and Iron Age neighborhoods), sometimes walking through unexpected places, such as shopping malls or under hotels, banks, churches, and even bathrooms (public, clean)... History is where you least expect it. Thank you!
