This was the highlight of our trip to Portugal. Tomar’s Templar castle was breathtaking, and walking through Coimbra’s old university felt like stepping back in time.

Great experience from start to finish. The car was spotless, our guide was friendly, and we never felt rushed. Highly recommend if you want to see more than just Lisbon.
