Outstanding and knowledgeable. - The overall trip was outstanding and our guide( Jose ----------) was very knowledgeable about all the areas he brought us. He was very respectable and ensured all passengers on the tour was well taken care off and anything requested was made available. I would rate our guide 10 out of 10 and sorry I can't remember his name but he was awesome.

Pleasant discovery of Braga and Guimaraes - Hernan, very attentive and warm, was a good driver and gave us essential tour comments. Sometimes we would have liked more details. He also advised us well on the choice of typical Portuguese dishes...and introduced us to vinho verde.

Small group personal tour - Great trip and tour with Hernan. Small group van tour was much better than the larger bus tours. We loved the local restaurant that was included for lunch.
