I live in Madeira but I'm from Minho (Braga). I agree with Ricardo "It's the people". And the food, and the wine, breath taking nature, very old villages, it's traditions. The weather does not help though, you have decent weather from May to September. Have fun. 👍

Loved that, can honestly say I've never heard of Minho. More like this please.
It's because of videos like this one that you have reached de 100.000 subscrivers and you deserve manny more: top quality! You made me laugh, and almost made me to tears, good tears, because you know how to show my country, it's best, and as you say, we are a proud nation of ourselfs. Try to book a come back trip to Ponte de Lima in the Feiras Novas, in September: i'm pretty shure you will love it! It's one of the best popular parties of the country. And, by the way, this year, in the first week of July, in Tomar, there will be the tradicional Festa dos Tabuleiros, one of the most beautifull festivals in the world, only happening every 4 years. I would be very happy to show you guys around: it's worth it! Love you guys!

I feel like you finally answered my invitation to the prom -- even though high-school ended years ago, and I'm now married with kids. Nevertheless, you finally made it to the beautiful Minho towns -- towns that hold such significant cultural importance. More importantly, this time, Arcos got more than a "meh" as acknowledgement. But we watched and asked aloud, why in November? I was still ecstatic to come across the video though. Visitors are often intrigued by Minho's rich history, stunning scenery and its vibrant culture. Your video did not cover it much, but it did touch on the beauty of the region in a way that was both mesmerizing and inspiring. The few images of the charming town of Arcos de Valdevez were pleasant, but so much was missed. The footage of Ponte de Lima was breathtaking, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of envy as I watched the team cycle and ride horses in Viana do Castelo. The drone footage was especially impressive as it circled around Viana, giving the video a professional touch and showcasing the region from a unique perspective. I was also delighted to see that you both took the time to appreciate the local cuisine. The Minho region is famous for its food, and I was glad to see that Stay Classy was able to sample some of its delicacies. One of the things I appreciated most about the video, though, was the attention that you guys brought to one of the more impoverished regions of Portugal. Minho is a beautiful region, with its lush hill sides and greenery, but it's often overlooked by tourists. The video was a much-needed reminder of just how much the region has to offer. It showed that there is so much more to Portugal than just its beaches and popular tourist destinations. I have to say that your video of Minho, Portugal was a real treat. I was impressed by the way you captured the essence of the region and showcased its beauty. The video was well-produced, as usual, and gave us a glimpse into a part of Portugal that many have not explored before. I would definitely recommend this video to anyone looking to learn more about Minho or to anyone who simply wants to be transported to a beautiful and serene corner of the world. Thumbs up, Stay Classy, more like this, please.

Killer video as always you guys. Always love it when you do the Norte haha Every trip back to Portugal growing up and up to the present, my father would always drive us up from Povoa to Viana do Castelo and down river to the beautiful fort town of Valença. Your video brings back great memories. Next time your in the North, maybe you can do the nearby Rio Ave region. You can hit up the cool and beautiful beach towns of Vila do Conde and Povoa de Varzim which have one of best beach-side boardwalks littered with cafes, restaurants, shops, casino, etc, along with beautiful communal squares. And quite possibly the best Francesinha ever in Vila do Conde haha Either way, loved the video and can't wait for the next one whatever it is.

Minho in the summer: better than Algarve ;)
Hey guys, love y'all. I understand that the people providing you the tour being from alto minho would mean you d spend most time there but don't call it a minho trip if braga, Barcelos, guimaraes... Are not on the list because it's not a minho tour, after all. What makes minho THE REGION is a variety of reasons which come all back to the same thing : authenticity. The way of living, the people on it, the accent, the landscape, the food and the booze are as autenthich, traditional and pure as you can get all over the world.
