Amarante, Tamega Princess: a soulful tour

You want a city that mixes truly folk experiences, amazing views, art and a rich history? Then I think you are right in coming to Amarante and I think I may be the right person to show it you: a young local who knows this place by heart, in love with its city and taking a History bachelor! And yeah, believe me when I tell you that Amarante has a soul of its own.

So, during our tour our sites will be:
1. Arquinho and 31st January Street
2. São Gonçalo Area: it includes the church (normally, open from 9am-5pm from Monday to Saturday) and the Bridge.
3. «The Prison» Street
4. São Domingos Area (church open, normally, from 14h30 to 17h30).
5. Surprise-extra spot (depending on how you feel at the end of the 4 main spots).

P.S.: Do not be afraid to suggest some changes or extra sites if you feel like it during the tour!

The tour lasts 1 hour and 45 minutes

Available in English, Spanish and Portuguese

Tours since 2023

Hello! I am Gonçalo and I am 21 years old. Currently, I am studying History at Porto University and I thought doing these tours in my city, Amarante, would be a good thing to be in contact with my field of study (which I love) and show people the best my town has (I love it too hahaha)! I am an easygoing, passionate, and curious person so do not be afraid to contact me or question me about anything! During our tour, I will try to tell you the story of my city from Roman times until contemporary times! Ready for the adventure? Book now!
