Coimbra di sera

Abbiamo prenotato perché attratti dall'idea di girare coimbra di sera e di essere accompagnati da un bellissimo cane che però non c'era. Carmine la guida è stato molto bravo nel mostrarci la verità nuda e cruda di coimbra e del Portogallo di oggi

Vey Interesting

Carmine had a lot of interesting facts to share as well as a deep understanding of the local life of Coimbra. We didn't get to tour with the dog but it was still interesting and I would recommend this tour with Carmine for sure if you are passing by for a short period and want a broad perspective of the area.
