Discover Guimarães, the birthplace of Portugal, on a journey through history and medieval charm. With its well-preserved architecture and narrow, cobbled streets, this UNESCO-listed city offers an immersive step back in time.

Your experience begins with convenient transport from Porto, taking you straight into the heart of Guimarães. Once there, you’ll explore two of its most iconic landmarks: the grand Palace of the Dukes of Bragança and the legendary Guimarães Castle. These sites tell the storey of Portugal’s first king and the city’s strategic importance in shaping the nation.

As you stroll through the historic centre, take in the authentic medieval ambiance—stone houses, picturesque alleyways, and lively squares where history meets modern-day charm. Along the way, your guide will share fascinating insights into the city’s past, its role in Portugal’s foundation, and the legends that still echo through its streets.

A delicious lunch is included, allowing you to savour local flavours in a charming setting. However, please note that entry tickets to the palace and castle are not included in the price, giving you the flexibility to decide on-site.

This experience is perfect for those wanting to escape the usual Porto itinerary and explore one of Portugal’s most historically significant cities in comfort. Immerse yourself in its rich heritage, stunning architecture, and vibrant atmosphere—all in one unforgettable day!
