Olá! / Hello! My name is Sara, born and raised in Coimbra, a city in the Center Region of Portugal I always loved to share my knowledge about Portugal with people from all around the world ✌️ I have a degree in Tourism, Leisure and Heritage by the famous University of Coimbra, one of the oldest Universities in the World, and the oldest of Portugal, completed in 2008. I also have a postgraduate in Art Studies in the field of Music, completed in 2024 at the same University. I acquired a vast working experience having participated in summer interships during my degree, working in tourism and events management for an agency and hotel after finishing my studies, and doing volunteer work in national and international events. I did my degree intership at a Cultural Music Association in my hometown Coimbra. After these experiences I have decided to start my own Tour Company and worked in it as Manager and Tour Guide from May 2012 to November 2020, when - because of COVID19 - I was forced to shut it down. During that time I focused on creating a YouTube channel and managing social media such as Instagram and Facebook pages, under the name GO! Walks Portugal. I made lots of free content about Portugal for people to enjoy! After things got back to "normal" I continued working as a freelancer Tour Guide, so I am available for hire! I have two comfortable vehicles that I can use for services throughout Portugal: half-day, full-day tours or multi-day routes, you name it! Within cities, I advise doing mostly walking routes and combine it with public transportation whenever needed. If you're planning on coming to Portugal, or if you're already here and want to learn about it, I am ready welcome you. Feel free to contact me for guided tours and routes throughout my country! I have no restrictions entering monuments and museums and I am a licensed Tour Guide (RNAAT 363/2021).

Overview of your Aveiro tour

In this tour we will find out everything wonderful about Aveiro region! We will have a full day to experience the best of the city of Aveiro, it's canal of water and typical boats that some people compare with Venice! We will have sights to the lagoon and the salt ponds, understanding the main ways of living of this coastal area of Portugal. We will visit the tallest lighthouse of Europe, in Barra and stop to taste some typical sweet (Tripa) in Costa Nova while being amazed by it's local fisherman houses! All my tours are slow paced and I always give at least 1h break between the morning and afternoon itinerary: you can use that time to taste our local gastronomy, as I always give suggestions of good restaurants and pastry shops. If you're not much into food, just walk around getting to know the shops w/ traditional arts & crafts, go for pictures. . . I will adapt the tour to your interests and needs even during lunch break!
