    The visit begins at the prestigious University of Coimbra, one of the oldest in Europe, with its fascinating panoramic view over the city.

    Then, passing by the Sé velha we will cross the Almedina arch, one of the medieval entrances to the city, and immerse ourselves in the vibrant life of Baixa de Coimbra. Here you will find picturesque streets, traditional shops and restaurants with authentic Portuguese cuisine.
