Hi,
Could someone please advise of an English-speaking driver/ w a bit of historic knowledge driver who can take 4 of us from our hotel in Lisbon to a hotel in Porto who can show us around Nazarre, Tomar and Coimbra and provide a bit of historic and cultural information or provide brief tours of those towns/areas along the way. We hope to do this travel/ touring on a day trip on May 14, 2024. Thank you RR

I think you need to reconsider your plan since it’s unrealistic.
You won’t see much of those towns trying to see them in one day. It seems more like a check the box itinerary than actually seeing anything. The Convent of Christ in Tomar needs a couple hours on its own. The same goes for seeing the University and library in Coimbra. The upper town of Nazaré would be short changed if you tried to see it in under 1.5 hours. Then there is the time needed to get from town to town. To properly see Tomar and Coimbra you’d need three nights in each place. Nazaré could be seen in a day, but overnight would be better.
