Maria Nicolau

Meet Maria Nicolau, a proud native of Porto, who will bring you a fusion of historical exploration and holistic healing in the heart of Porto.

With an unwavering passion for her craft, Maria has spent the last 8 years guiding visitors through the enchanting city of Porto, navigating the medieval cobblestone streets that wind through hillsides adorned with vibrant terracotta-tiled rooftops and colorful houses.
Embark on a journey through time with Maria as she introduces you to the first stretch of the Camino de Santiago, where blue-tiled churches and gothic cathedrals will leave you awe-inspired and eager for the adventures ahead. As the Camino concludes, Maria extends a unique invitation to experience her Massage Therapy project, Makoto(Truth in Japanese).

As a dedicated massage therapist, Makoto aims to heal your body and nurture your emotional, spiritual, and mental well-being. Maria believes in staying true to herself and her purpose, fostering a safe space for individuals to open up, delve into their emotions, and aspire to their authenticity.

Through a blend of specially selected music, traditional Ayurvedic techniques, and the soothing power of voice healing, Maria's work promises a healing and immersive experience. Your journey with Maria begins with a swift foot massage upon arrival, paving the way for a rejuvenating full-body treatment on integration days.

Maria looks forward to connecting with all who choose to embark on this transformative journey, inviting you to experience this Way with us!
