Hello and welcome to Coimbra! Born in Porto, I was a student at the University of Coimbra. I chose this hidden gem as my home in 2006, and from that time, I've been exploring its secrets. Coimbra, nestled between mountains and the sea, combines a rich history with a welcoming climate. Once Portugal’s first capital, it shaped early kings and witnessed legendary stories. I offer tours through its diverse eras, so you can truly experience Coimbra through time—Roman, Moorish, Medieval, Renaissance, Enlightenment, Dictatorship, and beyond. My tours can focus on Coimbra’s history and culture, or cater to your interests in art, architecture, or food. All experiences are tailored just for you. Looking forward to hearing from you soon :)

Nadia was both personable and knowledgeable. Really made an effort to meet our needs and not just do a color-by-numbers tour. She organized everything we wanted and perfectly smooth. Highly recommend.

Hello, Great to hear from you. Thank you for your review, I really appreciate it! It was a pleasure to meet you. You're really nice and pleasant. Wish you all the best, Nadia
Nadia is engaging. We asked for three stops -- the university/library (a must do), the underground Roman ruins (skip -- not her fault, I asked for it), and the Old Cathedral (her tour of this was quite interesting). We enjoyed learning from her so much that we bought her lunch afterwards just so we could talk/listen to her more. I would definitely recommend Nadia to...
Nadia is amazing and is so knowledgeable about the history of Portugal and, of course, Coimbra. We highly recommend her tour. You will not be dissappointed as she is FANTASTIC !!!!!!!! Patrick C

Dear Patrick Convey, I truly appreciate your review. I had a lot of fun with you. And I am glad that you already know so much about Portugal. I hope you enjoy your time here, and maybe visit Geres and the Schist Villages, All the best! Nadia
Nadia was a very attentive and informed guide for our walk through Coimbra, especially the University surroundings and the library. She was full of knowledge about the University, being a student herself. She could answer questions we had and even sent us a follow-up email with more information. Thank you and best wishes in your continued studies!
