Braga tours

You can't miss Braga - you'll hear the bells peeling a mile away. Packed with some of the finest examples of Baroque cathedrals and churches in Europe, Portugal's third largest city draws visitors north with its stunning architecture and rich history. Take a private Braga tour and discover the city that travelers are calling the Rome of Portugal. Braga has been a religious powerhouse for nearly 1000 years, though its Christian roots stretch back much further, to around the 3rd century. With a legacy that lengthy, there's plenty to explore, so spend time strolling the streets and peeking into cathedrals, before settling in at a sidewalk café. After lunch, visit nearby Guimaraes, the cradle of the Portuguese nation, and explore the charming city centre. Take a side trip to the Bom Jesus do Monte and take in sweeping sunset views before returning to Braga for supper. As night falls, you'll hear the clanging of bells give way to the bitter-sweet melodies of Fado wafting on the breeze.
