looking for a passionate guide with expertise?

Then I'm the person for you!

My name is Mariana and I'm a tour guide with certified experience based in Viseu, at the very heart of Portugal!

Since I was little, I have always loved History and Art. I enrolled at the mythical University of Coimbra to study Journalism.


After some years in the communication and sales industry,  I decided to become a tour guide.  Since 2023, I've worked in local museums and at a Douro wine farm. My most recent experience in Coimbra in a premium company allowed me to specialize in personalized tours for small groups!


I enjoy helping people discover the secrets of two of the most ancient regions at the very heart of Portugal. Besides sharing a common history, Viseu and Coimbra are also underrated destinations that hide a lot of details often missed even by locals... that's why I want to show you all the glory of these wonderful cities!
