Free Tour Coimbra: History, legends and traditions

Overview of the tour in Coimbra

Why is Portugal so decadent?

What do the locals live on?

What influence do students have on the city?

Is the black coat mandatory to use?

If you have asked yourself at least one of these questions during your trip to Portugal then this is the tour for you.

With us you will discover the reality, often kept hidden, of local daily life

The tour includes:
- Guided tour of the historical part of Coimbra
- Introduction to the academic life of students

We are interested in accompanying people who want to discover something that a normal tour or Wikipedia does not tell you, that is what it means to live here in Coimbra today!

On arrival

See you in Largo da Portagem at the foot of the statue.
The guide will be holding a colored folder instead of an umbrella so that it will be easier to recognize it since you see many umbrellas around but there are very few people waiting with folders in hand...

Things to note

Use comfortable shoes :)

Bring water and an umbrella, useful for both hot and rainy days.
