Maria and Paulo were the warmest, most welcoming people in the history of the world. Upon arriving they gave us a tour of the quaint apartment which was thoughtfully equipped with little niceties a traveler always appreciates ( coffee, tea, blow dryer, napkins, maps, ect). They then proceeded to take the time to layout the city for us giving us the inside on the best sights, local bars, shops, fado, and restaurants. Everything they suggested was spot on and soaked in Portuguese history. Wow, what an amazing experience.
