Coimbra Private Tour from Lisbon with Hotel pick up + drop off

Coimbra, a revered seat of learning, houses one of the oldest universities in the world. Its grand library is a baroque masterpiece that safeguards ancient tomes. Stroll through the age-old university campus and soak in vistas of the Mondego River. Wander down to the medieval Old Town, a labyrinth of cobblestone lanes leading to the 12th-century Romanesque cathedral, Sé Velha. Here, each stone narrates a story of the city’s rich past. Venture further to discover the Santa Clara-a-Velha Monastery, an evocative Gothic structure with a tale of resilience against the river's whims. Your tour isn't complete without exploring the lush Jardim Botânico, an idyllic spot for nature lovers. Finally, experience the vibrant cultural scene with a visit to one of the traditional taverns, where the air is often filled with the melodic strains of Fado de Coimbra, a unique version of Portugal's hauntingly beautiful national music.
