We were supposed to have a French guided tour but our previous host wasn’t available. Carlos was really comprehensive about the fact English is not our native language. Above all, really passionate, Carlos knows a lot about Porto history and give us many precious tips for the rest of our trip. We highly recommend Carlos as host.Wow!

We had a wonderful 3 hour tour discovering the Hidden Gems of Porto with our guide Mayumi. She was delightful and extremely engaging. Our mistake was not staying more than two nights in Porto because if we had we would have booked Mayumi for the second day just exploring the food and wine scene. She modified our tour to at least include doing some limited food and wine sampling at the public market. When in Porto, you need to book Mayumi. Mayumi is a Rock Star!

(About local Jose Luis)

25 junio 2025

I recently experienced a guided tour of Porto with Jose Luis, and I highly recommend it! The tour was a delight, filled with fascinating insights, local charm, and his palpable passion for this beautiful city. Jose Luis is an exceptional storyteller. His impressive knowledge of Porto's history, architecture, and culture shines through engaging narratives. He brought the city, and Portugal itself, to life with anecdotes, including some of his own family history. His genuine love for Porto was infectious. We explored iconic spots but Jose Luis also revealed hidden gems. He perfectly balanced popular attractions with authentic local experiences. His food and drink recommendations were excellent – we enjoyed delicious pastéis de nata and fantastic Port wine thanks to him. Beyond his knowledge, Jose Luis's warm personality and humor made the tour incredibly enjoyable. He was attentive, answered questions readily, and ensured a comfortable pace. It felt like a leisurely stroll with a knowledgeable and charming local friend. If planning a trip to Porto, book a tour with Jose Luis to truly immerse yourself in its magic. It was, without a doubt, the highlight of our visit!An informative and enjoyable experience.

Ana gave us a very passionate version of Porto that she loves, she was a great guide, keen on knowing our interest and accommodating our needs (lunch break, coffee break). She knows her birth city very well and made us discover nice places and showed us hidden gems we wouldnt have visited otherwise. Friendly and passionate Porto Tour

21 junio 2025

One of the best experiences we’ve ever had on a trip. Chose to tour on our first full day in Porto to get an idea of how to spend the rest of our time. Best decision I ever made in a trip. Victor is a wealth of information. In fact, on a boat tour the guide was so impressed by how much we already knew, she had to quiz us to find new things she could share. I can’t recommend this enough for anyone who enjoys history, architecture and wants an overview of the historic sites in Porto. Best start to a trip

We enjoyed our morning with Mayumi very much. She greeted us with warmth that we knew after three hours was genuine. She had read our notes and so she tailored our route, and we modified as we went along. It was a perfect pace and her deep historical knowledge put a lot of what we saw in the context of both history and today. She also gave us great bonus restaurant and wine recommendations!! Mayumi - fun and substance all in one

Katerina gave us a wonderful in depth tour of all the highlights Porto has to offer. The tour was well planned and very informative. From interesting stories about the multitude of historic churches to the history of tiles and their importance in the day to day lives of the local people, there was another story to be found around each corner of the city. The view from the Porto Cathedral viewpoint, the Cathedral courtyard history and the stroll through the neighborhood leading to the Ribiera District was a wonderful highlight to the end of the tour. We would highly recommend a tour with Katerina. She is a wonderful, knowledgeable and very personable guide.Wonderful Tour In Porto

Wir hatten auf eine sehr persönliche und individuelle Führung gehofft, und genau das hat Katerina getan. Sie hat uns nicht nur die Sehenswürdigkeiten von Porto gezeigt, sondern uns auch viele Informationen über die portugiesische Gesellschaft und Geschichte vermittelt. Da wir beide über 80Jahre alt sind, hatten wir etwas Bedenken, so eine Tour zu machen. Sie hat darauf so Rücksicht genommen, dass wir die Tour von Anfang bis Ende genossen haben. Besser kann man eine Stadt nicht erkunden. Danke, Katerina!

I cannot recommend the lovely Mayumi enough! Mayumi has so much passion and so much knowledge of Porto. Her tour was so interesting and as a private tour it can be tailored to your requirements. Mayumi is so responsive on messages too and went out of her way to help our party with recommendations of restaurants whilst staying in Porto. Not only is Mayumi all of the above but she is the most lovely person. I would 100% recommend Mayumi and book her again for one of her different tours next time. A True Gem of a Guide

Heel blij met Jose Luis, We kwamen heel vroeg aan in Porto en hadden eigenlijk 16.00 u afgesproken, na kort berichtje was hij heel flexibel en kwam ons op vroegere tijd bij ons hotel ophalen ( hotel ligt erg cerntraal). Vol verhalen en veel geschiedenis weetjes loodste hij ons door de stad. Droge humor en heel ontspannen. We werden er heel enthousiast van om zelf de stad verder te gaan ontdekken. Een hele lijst met "must do's en eat" kregen we nog achteraf. Top zo op onze eerste dag in Porto!

We truly enjoyed our afternoon walking tour of Porto. Our guide André was friendly and very informative. The knowledge and interesting facts he shared were invaluable in providing historical context and enriching our visit to Porto. The only improvement I would offer is for the guides to have a sign, name tag or other identifying element. We arranged to meet André in a large plaza and we actually sat on a ledge next to him for a few minutes, waiting before either of us realized he was our guide. Hundreds of years of history in 3 hours.
