Coimbrã com André - Andrê Botelho did a fantastic job of taking us to the two cities. We truly enjoyed his company and benefited from his vast historical knowledge. In Aveiro we took a ride on a gondola (called “molisero”) and viewed Art Deco houses. In Coimbrã we toured the campus of Portugal’s oldest university. He guided us well through the twisty streets and alley-ways of this town. Muito obrigado, André!
