My husband and I had an amazing tour with Joao Archer. His deep historical knowledge of the university and Portugal culture that he shared with us made for an interesting and fun tour. I highly recommend going on this tour.

Joao was an absolute fabulous guide, I highly recommend you take this private tour. It is worth the money!
He is highly educated and knowledgeable.
I was unsure at first when I first booked it, but I am so glad I did. My family and I were super impressed by the professionalism and knowledge.

This was a wonderful tour of the University of Coimbra. Renan, our tour guide, was warm, engaging, knowledgeable and extremely enthusiastic. As a former student, and one who actually worked in the famous library, he offered unique insights that went beyond dates and facts. A very enjoyable morning tour!
