Essential Free walking tours of Coimbra

The picture of Jose says it all. Fantastic guide, host and man that enjoys his jobs. Coimbra the unknown city brought to life by Jose. Thank you so much.

Igor kindly did the tour even though I was the only participant! Good route (not too many hills) and varied information. Thank you !

Great storyteller ! He gives us a good historical view of the city with entertainement ! We recommand him for the visit of Combra

Ein super Guide, der Die Geschichte der Stadt sehr gut kennt. Außerdem ist er sehr interessiert daran, dass die Teilnehmer eine gute Zeit in Coimbra verbringen, sodass er viele gute Tipps gibt! Ich würde die Tour wieder buchen! Danke Josè

Jose was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Lots of information and a great introduction to Coimbra.

José was an amazing guide, who told us all about the visited sights, and also a lot about other places we could visit later during our stay!

terrific tour. Igor was informative, friendly and engaging:)

Igor was amusing, informative and showed care for us as his clients! His English was very good and his diction was clear so that my slightly deaf husband had no problem taking it all in. He obviously has not only knowledge but a passion for the history of Coimbra (& Portugal)! We learnt lots of tit bits that we wouldn't have picked up from a guide book. We whole heartedly recommend Igor and the guru tours! Thank you Igor!

Roger was very welcoming. His love for his adopted city of Coimbra was clearly evident as was his research of its history. We had a small group of only 4 people which in no way dampened his enthusiasm or sharing of knowledge. He provided us an excellent recommendation for dinner and we loved hearing about current student life. Overall the tour was excellent with well described information and enthusiasm for answering questions which was very much appreciated. I would have liked to cover a bit more ground with a few more hidden gems but the main street and historic sites were well covered. Thank you for the tour!

Roger our guide was very entertaining, knows a lot of unusual facts you would not get out of a book and was very passionate about the subjects he told us about. so glad we where on this walking tour helped us so much get an understanding of Coimbra.

Our guide Igor was truly outstanding. His ability to blend historical stories along with current events and even some myths of the past was really quite entertaining. His knowledge base is very strong and he is pleasant as well. We'd love another tour with Igor someday

It was very interesting tour Mario had a lot of knowledge .

A quality tour around the key landmarks of the city led by a very professional guide, with good light stories about the city but also with thorough knowledge of the city history. To sum up: a top notch experience. Fully recommendable. Thanks Mario!

Mario è una bravissima guida,preparata e competente che ci ha egregiamente guidato attraverso la bella Coimbra!

Great information shared by Roger, so much knowledge about many fields: history, art, architecture. Has excellent sense of humour too, highly recommended

Mario was wonderful! Informative tour. I learned a lot and felt it really have me info I wouldn't have gotten elsewhere. Mario answered all our questions. I would totally recommend doing it

Igor was an amazing tourguide. His English is very good and gives a great mix of stories about the history of Coimbra, the architecture, the botanical garden. It really was a pleasure and I have learned a lot from Igor. He even gives you tips for restaurants and bars. Highly recommend.

Wonderful walk, Igor was a great guide and showed us a really good time.

Roger was the perfect guide... passionate, professional, and engaging. Time with him flew by! Highly recommended!!

Jose's walking tour was my favorite part about visiting Coimbra; he was entertaining, extremely knowledgeable, and gave us fantastic recommendations. I'd never done a free walking tour, and I will definitely book them again in the future after such a great experience. I highly recommend this tour if you visit Coimbra!!

Jose was great

I really like the passionate way Igor tells the stories of the city and the university – few names and dates, but many interesting historical legends, facts, details of student life, and local tips. Starting the tour with a visit to the beautiful botanical garden is a great idea.

Very Committed and Passionate about Coimbra! Provides in-detail insights. I would definitely recommend anyone visiting Coimbra to take this Tour! Thank you Jose!

Grazie Jose! The tour was brilliant, very interesting and dynamic. We appreciated Jose’s kindness and preparation. We enjoyed our time in the city! Recommended !
