Discovering the charms and places of Coimbra

Discovering the charms and places of Coimbra

Coimbra, a city of students, a city where we learn to say saudade, a city full of charms and nooks where sections of the old wall will guide us in an adventure full of history, memories and wisdom. We will start this adventure along the banks of the river Mondego, where we will cross a pedestrian colored bridge, the Pedro and Ines Bridge, towards the Tollgate. On this bridge, you still have the privilege of contemplating a great panoramic view to the magnificent city of Coimbra and surrounding mountains. Along this route, the vast historical, cultural and natural heritage of this city awakens, in each one of us, the desire to set out on an adventure. An adventure to discover the history and mysteries hidden along the streets and staircases, from the downtown area to the high zone of the city, an adventure to get to know the old walled city and the oldest University of Europe, the University of Coimbra.

Great tour, great tour guide - learned so much about the rich history of Portugal and town of Coimbra
We had a fantastic guide (Bernardo was his name I think). As a graduate student of Coimbra University studying history he was both extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Coimbra and the history of Portugal. We learned so much in the couple of hours that we spent together. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Coimbra!
