RM Guided Tours Coimbra was born from the idea of transforming visits to the University of Coimbra into a unique experience, transforming the guided tour into a pleasant experience of knowledge and cultural enrichment in an interesting way. Therefore, in our company, we always seek to combine the beautiful history of the University of Coimbra with the present and its customs that permeate our institution to this day. This has all been made possible by the training we have in the areas of history, sociology and tourism. Our employees are former students of the University of Coimbra, which brings great appreciation and knowledge to our services.

The tour guide was super knowledgeable and overall this was a good tour - my reason for 3 stars is the inconsistent information about where to meet - the voucher I downloaded from Viator states meet in front of the general library. I arrived 15 minutes early and did not find the tour guide. I receive a call via what’s app - which I only downloaded that day. The tour was meeting in front of the statute of the university. Also want to add not everyone has WhatsApp. I didn’t until that day. To add to my frustration this was the tour out of multiple tours I’ve booked for a 2 week vacation that required I pay full price when booked. Most tours didn’t charge me until 48 hours before. So if you had my money for months the tour company couldn’t message me through viator - which I clearly have since I booked the tour through them and not what’sapp and confirm the meet location. Besides from these item I could tell other people on the tour seemed annoyed at our late arrival due to the misinformation on the voucher.
