Vania was well-informed and provided an interesting perspective on the history and layout of Guimaraes. We appreciated the chance to sample a couple of local delicacies and see some of the neighborhood joints.
Our guide was knowledgeable, a good listener and spoke English clearly. She was excited about teaching us the history of local Portuguese wines and foods.
