João was fantastic. We were fortunate that we were the only people on his tour. He was extremely knowledgeable and personable and could not have been more patient with our endless questions always having an informative and interesting answer. He has given us many suggestions for the rest of our stay in Coimbra. We highly recommend Joao for a tour of Coimbra.

Response from João
thank you for the booking, I'm just sorry that you didn't take into account the extreme heat on this tour, as well as the limited time, and the pressure I was under, as I had some tourists who always asked to finish at a certain time, and I couldn't harm the others. Of course, all this always affects me. I'd like to remind you that my main mission is to help you get to know the city and answer any questions you may have.

We enjoyed our tour with João. He was able to tell us a lot about the history of Coimbra and at the same time give us tips for things to see or to eat or drink. We really learned a lot about Coimbra and Portugal. Definitely recommended if you visit Coimbra!

We had a wonderful tour with Joao. He is so knowledgeable about Coimbra and Portugal history. I learned a lot and enjoyed seeing all the places we visited. I would highly recommend. You must be able to climb some steep hills and steps.
