João Mendes
Guida turistica privata
Portogallo

I'm a certified guide. I love my profession. I am passionate about history, culture, and traditions. I love helping people get to know my country, my region. Sharing a bit about our traditions, culture, and history. And, of course, it's always great to meet new people from different countries.

Since I've been a guide, I've always tried to steer clear of traditional tours. Of course, it's not always possible (because sometimes I also work with groups coming from agencies, for regular routes), but most of the services I do are as a guide, for the routes I propose, and with small groups, often private.

I've always wanted to create tours that are different from the usual. That didn't give a very simplistic view of the places. And that's what I always try to do, create proposals that have a touch of the original. To tell some interesting facts that are often forgotten during visits. Taking tourists to see famous spots, but also to some of the places where most guides/tourists don't usually go...

My tours are, mainly in Coimbra and around coimbra, but i am also available to work outside. As you can see, on my profile, I also have a special tour in Lisbon, and i am available in Porto. I have to say Lisbon and Porto, i am available from october to february, and july.

Always feel free to ask questions. I'm here to help.

If you want tours to Porto, Lisbon, etc... send me a message, please. Something different in coimbra, as well. Tours published online, text me please.
