Don't miss this truly Portuguese experience! - This was a great experience to have a personalized introduction to Borba. You are truly visiting the small family run businesses that are catering to the local people as they go about their regular daily routines. It included a bake shop that no more than 8 people could fit into as well as bars where the local men get together at 11:00 am each day to socialize. The snacks were a varied selection of typical local faire and served right off of the grill for our enjoyment. The locals are so welcoming that you fit right in and become part of the village immediately !

Fresh look at Borba - Joao took us through a fantastic trip through Borba. Suddenly we were one with the community. What we did not see as tourists became visible. Tip: do this trip at the start of your trip. It offers you so much more view of Borba.

Food tour - The food was good and the people very nice. We found a lot of places we did not know where there so that's a bonus. The guide got distracted a few times on the walk
