Middelalderlige Guimarães - ved skumring eller dagtid -fra Porto eller Braga
Beskrivelse
Forelsk dig i en af de mest imponerende byer i den nordlige region. Guimarães er stolt vuggen af nationalitet, da i det fjerne 12. århundrede, her opnåede vi uafhængighed fra kongeriget León, efter at være blevet etableret som hovedstaden i Portucalense County. Siden da har byen bevaret sine forsvarsmure, slott, borg og arbejder/bønder kvarterer indtil det 19. århundrede. I dag kan vi stadig beundre dens middelalderlige oprindelse, med de små pladser og smalle gader, ud over at beundre de store monumenter og kulturarv til stede i alle hjørner af byen. På dette besøg vil vi udforske hele området inde og uden for væggene, røre på punkter af interesse og nysgerrighed. Vi klatrer også med bil til det højeste punkt i omgivelserne for at have det bedste sightseeingsted og opdage nogle skjulte perler. Hvis du vælger at besøge solnedgang / nat, vil du blive blændet af stemningen, lyn og udsigt over byen!

Great tour. Smooth and short. Plenty of time for shopping. Pick up and drip off smooth. Recommend to book.
We had such a great day seeing Guimaraes and Braga. Both cities were very interesting and beautiful. After coming from a few days in Porto it was nice not having such steep inclines to walk. Ricardo was our guide and he was very knowledgeable, informative and patient as we tend to wonder off a bit. He has a good sense of humor and is very personable. We learned a lot about Portugal and got a good history base to build on.
Anyone who loves visiting Portugal MUST visit Guimaraes to know how Portugal came to be. Our guide Ricardo was very pleasant, wonderful and gave very detailed history of this region and made a very pleasant walking itinerary to see all the highlights. A very beautiful little town and MUST SEE. Here Portugal was born!! ❤️
Hello Rita. It's so nice to see your kind words and realize that you enjoyed getting to know the beautiful city of Guimarães. Sometimes small cities are a little "undervalued," but this one definitely deserves all the attention, since as you mentioned (Portugal was born here). The city is the cradle of our nationality, the former capital of the country, and the stage for great events in the formation of our nation. Thank you once again for your kindness. All the best, Ricardo Costa
Bruno picked us up at our Porto hotel on time - and we were off! We picked up 2 others in Braga - 2 others from the US. The tour was awesome - while Bruno’s expertise is the national parks he was well versed on the history of Guimares as well as Braga - another historical city we asked if could be included. It was just a great way to see two important cities in the history of Portugal. Thank you Bruno!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It is always a pleasure for us to share our culture, roots and history. These two cities (Braga and Guimarães) are undoubtedly those that most closely related to the founding of our nation - A ton of legacy! On behalf of Bruno and myself, we thank you for your feedback, and of course we will welcome you back whenever wanted, to show you even more of this wonderful Portugal. Cheers,
We did this tour with Paloma, the lover of roofs.....Her explanations, her desire to teach us Guimaraes....Fantastic A 10 for her
Muchas gracias por su simpatía. Me alegra que hayas disfrutado la visita y la ciudad :) Un abrazo!
Well organized city and well preserved monuments, with good explanations about the history, in every era that happened. People helping in information, easy access and proper signalling.
Olá Marcelo, Obrigado pela visita e simpatia! :) Espero vê lo por cá novamente em breve. Grande Abraço!
Guimaraes should be on everyone's list of places to visit in Portugal. The birthplace of Portugal 's fortress and palace are Interesting views into Portugal's beginning. The stone outcropping s add drama to the terrain. The visit was a treat.
Thank you for the sympaty and recomendation. Will wait for your return! :) Best wishes, Ricardo
