Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"I throughly enjoyed my tour with Priscila! Her love for Porto shines through. She is very very knowledgeable about Porto’s history but has her finger on the current pulse of the culture as well. She gives thoughtful answers to every question. She is a true foodie and we enjoyed a relaxed snack and glass of wine together at Sao Bento station. She even text me after our tour with the names of the places we visited and offered to be a resource for the rest of my trip. A perfect reassurance for the solo female traveler. 10/10 recommend Priscila."
"Mayumi was so welcoming and engaging! The tour was incredibly informative - during my time in Portugal, I learned the most during the 3 hours I spent with Mayumi. I appreciated that she personalized the tour based on interest. She takes pride in being a tour guide and it shows. I had so much fun and I would definitely book again!"
"My spouse and I decided to start our trip to Porto with a 3 hour private tour with Jorge and it was well worth it. Jorge was friendly, knowledgeable and his love of Porto showed. He shared all the main sites, provided history, made recommendations on where we should eat and what to do. I would highly recommend Jorge."
"We plan to move to Portugal someday and asked Joana to give us a tour with that in mind. She did an outstanding job. She knows everything. We started at the Lion fountain and she could tell us why their were suds in it (student prank during finals) and information about each site we passed. She chose a path through the city, across the river, to the gondolas and back again that was easy to walk and enchanting to see. During the walk she talked about things we would encounter living in Portugal. For example, if we got invited to a barbecue, it would be barbecued sardines. It was a lovely walk. We highly recommend her."
"My wife and I booked Carlos for a walk around. Great tour. Helpful guy; his advice saved me a lot of money. He tailored our tour to our very own interests. Spot on restaurant advice and secret photo spots. "
"We toured Porto with Orlando. He was awesome! He is an experienced and knowledgeable guide who educated us on the history of Porto and showed us the landmarks. He was honest about other areas we should tour. He answered all our questions. A 3 hour tour went by so quickly. Orlando made the tour fun!! Excellent guide!"
"My tour with Joana was fantastic. She provided a personalized, local perspective that made me feel like a friend visiting the city rather than just a tourist. She took me to unique, off-the-beaten-path locations and shared insider tips you won't find on a standard tour. I highly recommend Joana if you want an authentic feel for the city."
"We had the opportunity to join Jorge for an insider's look at Porto's culinary scene. Jorge was very friendly and welcoming!! Within moments, we felt as though we were hanging with a friend and not a guide. His perspective as a Porto native of several generations, allowed us to appreciate the history of the city and neighborhoods. We appreciated that Jorge introduced us to places that are off the beaten path as well as many of the delicacies of the region. Jorge was hospitable and always checked to confirm we were interested in tasting the various food items. Obrigado Jorge! Neil and David "
"Carlos was a very informed and friendly English speaking guide. Very helpful with any questions we had. "
"Fernando was simply a pleasure to be with. He engaged all members of the family, was able to find a hidden gem for each of us and was utterly charming. We cannot recommend him enough. "
