Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Since it was just me and my travel companion, we were able to customize the tour and Orlando was willing to do whatever we wanted. He was super informative and knew his history extremely well and had fun anecdotal stories during the tour. I would highly recommend booking with Orlando if you’re into history"
"My wife and I met up with Helena right as we got into Porto. Helena gave us a great tour of the city that included some history, some of the historic landmarks, a couple great views, and a cultural overview. We had a great time. She was very knowledgeable and is perfectly fluent in both English and Portuguese."
"Orlando went above and beyond in making our tour the best possible experience. It rained heavily throughout, but Orlando was so engaging and fun that we didn't even mind the weather. He's by far the funniest tour guide I've ever had, while also being incredibly knowledgeable and professional. His love for the Porto really shines through, and it felt like you could ask him any question about the history of the city and he would know the answer. We absolutely loved our time with Orlando and would tour with him again in a heartbeat!"
"Helena was a joy to be with on our walking tour of Porto. She lead us on an interesting tour with a variety of stops. It was our first full day in Porto and she gave us a good sense of the different areas to explore. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. It was wonderful to have a guide who had grown up in porto and was able to give us the insider perspective. Her youth and excellent education give her a fresh viewpoint as well. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to explore this beautiful city. "
When you hit the road and land in a new city like Porto, there's an exciting way to dive into its soul: personalized local tours. Forget the typical touristy routes – these tours are like having a local friend show you around all the cool spots.
Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Porto spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Porto.
The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.
But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Porto, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Porto awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.
So, next time you're in Porto, ditch the ordinary. Grab a local tour and unlock the city's real magic – the stories, flavors, and places that make it uniquely Porto. Get ready to explore like a local!

"Francisca met us at the train station and engaged us in a "what would you like to see in Porto" conversation. She personalized the day brilliantly while inserting her expertise in architecture and history. She made the city and the evolution of life in Porto come to focus for us in a conversational way while introducing us to culinary treats, smells and just the wonderful ways of a fascinating city. If available, a personal tour with her is an incredible opportunity to learn about and enjoy Porto."
"We had the best time with Vera on our tour. She was a great guide and was so accommodating with our group. I highly recommend Vera for any Porto tours. She is a local with so much knowledge and passion. We hit up some spots I would never have found on my own. Thank you, Vera!"
"We had a wonderful Duoro Valley day trip with Tiago. He was friendly, personable, and very knowledgeable about all things Portugal! He took care of EVERYTHING for us and allowed us to customize our day to fit our needs - all we had to do was show up! We would highly recommend Tiago for any travel needs in Portugal. Thank you Tiago for a perfect day!!"
"What a great food tour! Miguel took us to places we never would have known to try and everything was amazing. He has a great knowledge of Porto's history and was great about incorporating it into the tour so we had the context of the different foods we were trying. Miguel was funny, warm and welcoming and we would highly recommend him as your guide the next time you're in Porto!"
"Maria is not only very personable & knowledgeable, she added another depth to our visit to Porto. She introduced us to many of the local foods & customs. We so enjoyed popping into food shops & vendors we never would have discovered on our own. Along the way, she also pointed out additional sites & restaurants that she recommended we visit while in Porto. She exceeded all expectations. You will be lucky if you are able to have Maria as your Food Tour guide! "
"Helenas tour was just what we were looking for to get to know Porto on our first visit! The pace was great, the stories very interesting and before we new it, Porto felt familiar and intriguing at the same time 😊☀️ Would absolutely recommend Helena as your guide to get to know Porto and get you started on your own adventures. Thank you!!!"
