  I visited this university and found the fascinating. It was very interesting and unique and unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. I wish I had moretime to spend at this place because I did not have the opportunity to enjoy everything I could. I will certainly come back!

  No valuable historic information was shared. We could've done this by ourselves. The tickets for monuments were shared for us to do this ourselves.

  Sara is a highly experienced tour guide who is passionate about Coimbra. We felt so lucky to have booked a tour to the Joanina Library with her. Magical place.

  Entries are timed. Library was impressive. I had hoped to see a lecture hall, but we did not. The history was interesting.

  We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Sara was very personable and clued up on the history, plus she has inside knowledge as she studied at the university. The library is awesome … a must see!

• Fascinating Insights from University of Coimbra alumna

  The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and interesting. She shared fascinating details about both the University of Coimbra and the Joanina Library that we couldn't have learned otherwise. We later met up with other travelers who had toured Coimbra but NOT taken a tour such as this, and found ourselves sharing insights from the tour with them. Because we were with a guide, we experienced perks such as being the last of our group to exit the library while hearing a fascinating story about the library ecosystem. I would absolutely take a tour with this guide again--she was fabulous and shared details about Portuguese history and culture that one might only hear from a native and Coimbra graduate.

• Eva’s Outstanding Tour

  Eva did an outstanding job sharing her love of her Alma mater. The library actually brought tears to my eyes. Such a unique campus. Eva has extensive knowledge of both the university and Portugal in general. She knows all the people who work on the campus and they clearly have respect for her. We moved through the sites efficiently but never felt rushed. Eva had answers to all our questions. I highly recommend her tour
