Escaping the frenetic and rather claustrophobic confines of Porto, beautiful city though it is, for the gentler but still pleasantly buzzy locations of Guimaraes and Braga was a real delight. Our guide, Jose, was excellent, well informed, friendly, helpful and enhanced the enjoyment of the trip. We opted out of the lunch offer and spent more time strolling around the lovely city of Braga where plenty of interesting eateries are available. The guided tour with Jose later, especially the cathedral visit, was fascinating as was the final leg of the tour to the shrine of Bom Jesus. All very good value.
