The best local flavor by bike
There is just no other way to experience so much of Porto, Gaia, and the fishing villages around than on bike. Anselmo was amazing in navigating the terrain (you cannot completely avoid the hills) and getting us to beautiful views. His love of biking, his town and the people come shining through. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who can handle a bike well!

Biking is a great way to see Porto
I highly recommend Anselmo. He is a very knowledgeable guide and an amazing cyclist. As Porto is hilly, you can ride the bike and get an amazing workout or even rent an e bike and just have a cruise. either way you cannot go wrong with hiring Anselmo to be your guide! i rate him 10 out of 10 as he is knowledgeable, experienced, and a super guy!

How to see hidden highlights of Porto
Anselmo was perfect to guide us to parts of Porto that you’d never normally find- the best way to see a new place. And unforgettable.

Cycling- best way to see the city views
Terrific host and we felt like we were able to see some great views of the bridges but also some quieter hidden areas that most tourists don’t go to. Terrific host and he has extensive local knowledge and also guides trip through the Duoro Valley, and we trust him to be a great guide wherever he took you!

Wonderful tour!
We had an amazing morning with Rui. It was very informative and comfortable. We saw many places we would have never known were there. Great conversation with him about so many topics. It was a true learning experience and we really enjoyed it!

Great Tour
Anselmo is a great tour guide. He made sure everyone in our group could keep up and showed us areas of the city we would not have seen otherwise. I highly recommend this trip.

Great tour in Porto
Rui took time to ask questions about what we liked and what we wanted to discover in Porto and delivered a tour to match. Really enjoyed the tour and his company.

Tailored to our needs
Rui worked hard to make our walk more to our needs. He combined 2 walks just for us. He is very knowledgeable and made sure we had recommendations for meals. When we return we will be asking for him again.
