Full description

This day trip covers three northern Portuguese cities by air-conditioned coach, with a guide and a separate driver. The route begins at Santa Luzia above Viana do Castelo, with time in the town centre, then continues to Braga for its historical streets and the Bom Jesus sanctuary.

The last stop is Guimarães, known for its medieval centre and views of the castle. Short guided walks alternate with independent exploration, and radio headsets carry the commentary.

Reviewers value the guides' regional knowledge and the balance of structure and free time, despite the long day.
