Braga - don’t miss it.

Our guide Rui was so knowledgeable about this area and very friendly. We learned so much from him about Braga, Portugal and the design and creation of the various artwork and design in the church. It was developed over decades and several church leaders with their own ideas. The trip and tour was like a day with a friend who wanted us to learn about his country. Braga was lovely. We’d definitely recommend and ask for Rui.

Must see and book! Worth it!

We enjoyed the tour! Our local guide Rue was excellent. He shared so much cultural aspects of his country and we learned so much from him. He was also very accommodating and never rushed us. He even went above and beyond to drop us off at convenient locations. We enjoyed him and the tours were amazing.

Fantastic time in Braga!

Be Prepared to be Awed by Braga

Bradley_F, Apr 2023

This is as an over the top tour. The churches and gardens were beyond compare. We were especially impressed with the Bom Jesus church and grounds. The views at the mountain top were spectacular. Diago, our guide, literally went the extra mile for us. He added a couple of extra sites to see. He was flexible and accommodating to what we wanted to see. He was knowledgeable, friendly, professional a fun conversationalist. We were on a river cruise so he picked us up in a Mercedes van right at the ship. Braga is a not to be missed destination in Portugal. I highly recommend this half day tour.
