Highlights
Founded by the Romans as "Aeminium", Coimbra buzzes with life till today. We'll gather downtown near the river, where the music of street performers meets the daily hustle of one of Coimbra's most iconic streets. Surrounded by small streets that weave in and out of the main road, you'll learn about the churches and the stories they keep within their walls. We'll get to know these places more intimately, and we'll stop for a coffee or a snack along the way. Up the hilly way we go to take in view and get acquaintance with the University, academic culture in Coimbra, and its many quirks. After getting to know the University we'll make our way just down the road by the impressive Roma aqueduct, and enter the country's most important botanical garden where you'll learn of its origins and relevance that it still holds today. The plaza where the students gather in the late afternoons, by entrance of the magical Mermaid Garden, awaits you at the end of your journey. - What are you waiting for?

The introduction to our tour, letting us place ourselves in the geography of Portugal and in its secularized present.
Among other churches prior to this one, we'll check out the interior of Santa Cruz and talk about the historical figures that studied here, and the kings whose remains rest within its walls.
What is Almedina and why is it so well guarded? The deeper we delve into Coimbra, the deeper we delve into its history and culture.
After winding alleyways, we find ourselves in front of the most iconic cathedral in Coimbra, full of stories to tell.
The priestly Order that had this 1700s cathedral built never got to see their own project finished. Who were they, and what caused them to be expelled from Portugal? Who made the call?
Lets walk through and talk about the history of one of the oldest still operating universities in the world.
A library, a church, a tower of four bells, a great plaza, an iron door full of student superstition, and the statue of a weak but caring king.
Troubadour, Administrator, King- He faces toward the monumental stairs that overlook the city bellow. Who is this magnanimous figure?
The jade jewel of Coimbra that crowns her "capital of botanical studies". Under the shade of the canopy there are stories waiting to be told.

About Coimbra
Coimbra is a hill city on the Mondego River in central Portugal, home to a centuries-old university, a baroque library and its own style of fado.
Coimbra rises above the Mondego River in central Portugal and was the country's capital in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Its university, founded in 1290 and settled in Coimbra from 1537, is the oldest in Portugal, and the old campus on the hill is a UNESCO site with the gilded Joanina Library and a tall clock tower. Students still wear black academic capes.
