On this private tour we will discover two of the most historic cities in Portugal. It is essentially an cultural tour, with some points of interest that we will visit by car, covering the historic areas on foot. In Braga, a city with roots in the ancient Roman Empire, with a two-millennial history that remains very present in the legacy and traces in the center and surrounding areas, we will understand the evolutionary path in the city's architecture, as well as the religious nature driven by the Portuguese Metropolitan Archdiocese that It is headquartered here, as well as the 161 buildings for Christian devotion present in the urban area.
Among other stops, we highlight visits to Roman monuments, the Cathedral and Bom Jesus do Monte (UNESCO 2019).
In the other part of the day we will discover the birthplace of portuguese nationality! Guimarães witnessed the first political and military events that led to the territory's independence from the kingdom of Leão in the 12th century. It was a battlefield, residence of the first king (Afonso Henriques), and the first portuguese capital. It is an enchanted city that maintains the original medieval structure and architectural design that earns it distinction as a world heritage site (UNESCO 2001/2023).
Highlight is the visit to the Castle and Medieval Walls and Zona de Couros.
