Situated 200 kilometres from Lisbon, Coimbra ranks highly on every sophisticated traveler's list. Take a Coimbra private tour and educate yourself about this vibrant university city.

Comibra is a fascinating mix of architectural styles, from medieval cobbled streets and Baroque cathedrals to Gothic monasteries and Renaissance fountains. Long considered the heart of Portugal's cultural life, Coimbra attracts writers and artists who feed on the creative energy of the city's 20,000 students.

The University of Coimbra was established in 1290, making it Europe's oldest centre of higher learning. The streets are packed with student hangouts serving strong coffee or strong liquor, depending on the time of day. Your guide can show you the hallowed halls of learning, or you can just sip a <i>bica</i> at a café. Crammed in enough history for one day? Then head to the riverside for a relaxing stroll and let it sink in. Don't worry - there's no exam with this Coimbra private tour.
