I am a woman in love with travel and the inner transformation it can bring. I am Portuguese from Guimarães but have lived in Barcelona for many years and for a time in the Swiss Alps. I love the history and customs of these places, as well as their symbolism, legends, and myths. On my walking tours, I want to connect with different people and instill curiosity and a desire to continue exploring and expanding boundaries. It will be a pleasure to accompany you on a tour not only of history and important dates but also of mystery and the hidden symbolism of enchanted Mouras. I don't work with any agency, so my tours are with fewer people and, therefore, are more relaxed, intimate, and offer more personalized service. If you are looking for a tour that is something out of the ordinary, this is the place for you. See you soon, Mitó Fernandes.
