Coimbra Itineraries: Plans That Fit the Time You Have

Coimbra rewards sequencing more than most cities, because the Joanina library admits 50 people every 20 minutes on a slot printed on the ticket, and the climb from the Baixa to the Alta is steeper than any map suggests. These plans build the day around that slot, the season and the hours the monuments actually keep.
