Guimar\u00e3es, a UNESCO World Heritage city, immerses us in the foundation of Portugal, with the castle, the Church of S\u00e3o Miguel, and the Palace of the Dukes of Braganza. Medieval streets, charming squares like S\u00e3o Tiago, Toural, and Oliveira, along with the indulgence of a Santa Clara pastry, complete the experience.\r\n\r\nIn Braga, the grandeur of the 12th-century Cathedral fascinates with its baroque architecture and pipe organs. The Episcopal Palace, the Santa B\u00e1rbara gardens, and the vibrant Republic Square highlight Braga's modernity. The unique Water-powered Elevator, the oldest in the world, offers a simple and efficient ascent.\r\n\r\nThe Bom Jesus Park, with its diverse architectural setting and monumental staircase, provides a unique experience. Inspiring constructions in both Brazil and Portugal, it serves as the perfect epilogue to this enriching tour through the heart of Minho.","cost_includes":"Licensed and exclusive guide\nBottled Water\nWi-Fi\nAccidents insurance","cost_excludes":"Entry to monuments\r\nMeals","itineraries":[{"title":"Hotel Pick-up","content":"<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Your private driver-guide will meet you directly at your hotel lobby to begin this exceptional day tour.
