“Helder Paiva was an excellent tour guide. He explained a lot about the history of Portugal on the way to Fatima and on the way home. He was clearly knowledgeable. He personalized the walking tour of the site of the apparitions and gave us plenty of free time to explore the shrine and the surrounding areas. The trip to Coimbra was a bit short, but he did a great job explaining what the city was all about as well as its unique history. Helder even spent time with my wife and I after the tour ended answering our questions and giving us even more history Excellent tour for the money!!…”

“Rodriguez was fantastic. He is a local and lives between Porto and Lisboa. He was very friendly and provided much local history and insight. He tailored the tour to suit our group and went out of his way to make us comfortable, even buying sweet eggs (the local delicacy) for us in Aveiro. We were able to experience authentic Portuguese cuisine for lunch at a restaurant near his home. He knew all the tricks to get us in and out of various locations without a hassle.
