Braga and Guimarães Tour

Medieval Origins & Sacred Heights

Step back into the 10th century at the iconic Guimarães Castle, where the nation's first king was born, and wander through the beautifully preserved medieval streets of the UNESCO-listed historic center.

Next, journey to Braga to experience Portugal's oldest religious sanctuary. Scale the monumental baroque stairway or ride the historic water-powered funicular up to the mountaintop Bom Jesus do Monte. At the summit, you will find a stunning neoclassical church surrounded by peaceful gardens, offering breathtaking, panoramic views over the entire region. It is the perfect blend of ancient heritage, deep spirituality, and dramatic mountain scenery.
