Highlights

Discover the university city of Coimbra and the ancient Roman site of Conímbriga on a private full-day cultural tour from Porto. With a knowledgeable local guide, explore the UNESCO-listed University of Coimbra, including former royal spaces and the renowned Biblioteca Joanina, a symbol of centuries of academic life.


Continue through the historic centre to key medieval landmarks such as the Sé Velha (Old Cathedral), the Arco de Almedina, and the Monastery of Santa Cruz, closely linked to the origins of the Portuguese kingdom.


In the afternoon, visit Conímbriga, one of the best-preserved Roman archaeological sites in the Iberian Peninsula, where streets, baths, city walls and exceptional mosaics reveal daily life in Roman Lusitania. A private format allows a relaxed pace, clear interpretation, and seamless transport throughout the day.
