What an amazing day trip! Braga is so full of culture and history, and the climb up to Bom Jesus provided fantastic views. Guimaraes, being the birthplace of Portugal, was a highlight with its ancient castle and lovely squares. Our guide brought the history to life and made sure we had plenty of time to explore. If you're in Portugal and love history, this tour is a must!

I absolutely loved this tour! Braga is such a beautiful city with incredible historical sites, and the visit to the Bom Jesus do Monte was breathtaking. Guimaraes felt like a journey into the past with its medieval architecture and the charming castle. Our guide was so knowledgeable and made the entire experience engaging. Highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in Portugal’s rich history!
