Explore seven centuries of history on a flexible walking tour of Coimbra, Portugal’s legendary "City of Students." Guided by a University history student dressed in the traditional academic traje, you’ll get an exclusive insider’s look into the unique "Coimbra Mystique."

Starting at Praça da República, you'll pass the Academic Association (AAC) and climb the monumental stairs, discovering student rituals and the symbolism of the iconic black cape. At the breathtaking Palace of Schools and Via Latina, you will uncover the foundations of Portugal’s oldest university. The journey then descends through a fascinating labyrinth of Roman roots, Moorish walls, and medieval grandeur.

After passing beneath the historic Almedina Arch, the tour concludes at the Santa Cruz Monastery, the final resting place of Portugal’s first kings.
