Great day visiting Guimarães and Braga. Luis was a great guide and we saw all the highlights. Bom Jesus was a highlight as was Sameiro.

Our driver was the best! He was full of useful information, helped us to navigate the language and recomended some great stops. I have never been disappointed by any private driver that I have ever had using La Vacanza Travel. On this trip we used this site for several different activities, two that included private drivers. It really helps to have this resource when traveling,.

Paulo was a very considerate and informative tour guide. We would recommend him to anyone wishing to visit Braga and Guimaraes.

We were picked up on time by a nice gentleman, who told us we were the only pair on the tour. We had a n eight seater and the guide / driver to ourselves. A knowledgeable person willing to pass on his knowledge and also willing to listen to us. We had a great tour nothing was too much trouble, he took us to ride the funicular railway at Sanctuary of Bom Jesus de Braga, the best known religious sanctuary in Portugal picking us up from the bottom. Sadly i cannot remember his name but he was from SA. A thoroughly recommended tour.
