We did a private tour to Coimbra and Aveiro with Touch Tours in the first days after the reopening post Corona on 24 June. A super positive experience. Spacious luxurious vehicle, super punctual and caring guide called Tiago, full respect for the new corona safety measures - I travelled alone with my 3 teenage children. The commutation with Touch Tours (André) from start to finish was impeccable. The company listens to what you want to do. We are very satisfied.

Went on this tour last October, and had a wonderful experience! Silvia was our guide and she was so amazingly sweet and thoughtful. We travelled with a french couple and she literally explained everything in two languages: French and English. Not only is that extremely nice, I can only imagine the energy that takes :) The whole experience of driving through Douro, the wines, the people we spoke to and the delicious wines we could taste: would definitely recommend. Love, Dennis & Vera from the Netherlands

We spend a fantastic day with our Guide Ruben. The coach was clean, with gel and everyone had to wear masks. Ruben was very knowledgeable but did not give us information overload. He spoke clearly and answered whatever question we asked him. Thank you!

We were a group of five people fron St Jaen Pied the Port to Pamplona and everything were easy for us. We had some problem with one of our collegue and they sent a taxi to pick her up. The hotels were in a good place and the food were great. The only thing that I suggest is to take breakfast early because in July the weather is very hot

Hello, My wife & I were a part of this small group tour with another Brazilian family.Our guide was Micael Neto.He was very friendly & very approachable from the start of the tour.He drives well & is able to communicate his point in English.We personally preferred the Aveiro part to Coimbra.The Costa Nova beach & the light house were fantastic.The Moliserro cruise is an experience one should have.We had lunch & Avos Moles at the Market Square at Cafe Pixinho.The Coimbra tour was mainly a university,cathedral & the market square. Speaking personally about Micael a few incidents which stood out for me, a)He found a restaurant in Aveiro which serves vegeterian food for us. b)In Coimbra when the others were busy in the university he took us to the Botanical Garden & Cathedral. c)He helped us plan the rest of our trip in Porto & Lisbon with his suggestions. d)He even recommended places to have vegeterian food near our hotel. e)He ensured that each members personal interests were taken care off during the tour.He made it a point to understand our likes & dislikes.Eg.He made it a point to show me the storks nests & the Dragao stadium. The tour was well organised as any other but Micael was very good & would highly reccomend travelling with Micael to anybody in the future. Cheers, Dr.Vidhi & Harshit

Amongst an entertaining day, highlight for us was Combarro and linked estuary cruise. Beautiful scenery, watching dolphins, lunch of very fresh oysters and mussels. Saw a lot. Understand how hard it must be for the guide though. Spanish and English in same group. Two explanations, twice the time. Or more for one group less the other. That said, a fun day
