We booked a walking tour with Gustavo our first afternoon in Porto. The weather could have been better but we throughly enjoyed the tour anyway because Gustavo was so informative and engaging. We had such a great time that we asked him to spent the entire next day with us in the Douro Valley. An amazing experience with an amazing guide! He went above and beyond and we will definitely recommend to all of our friends planning travel to this area.Exceptional experience in Porto!

Helena was so lovely! She gave a great tour of the market and other places we would not have found or gone to ourselves. She shared lots of local knowledge and history, and was full of enthusiasm for Porto and its food. Would totally recommend booking, especially on your first day in town to get lots of advice on what to do and where to visit. A highlight of our trip! Fabulous!

Gustavo covered all the things we wanted to do. He is so much more than a tour guide — interesting and knowledgeable on so many topics; worked to create special moments for us; and brought a historical and cultural perspective to our day. The highlight of the day was getting off the highway onto the back roads to see different viewpoints and smaller villages.Perfectr day in Duoro Valley

We had the absolute pleasure of spending time with Helene, our local guide in Porto, and we couldn't have asked for a more wonderful experience. Helene is not only incredibly kind and warm-hearted, but her passion for food and her love for the beautiful city of Porto truly shine through in everything she does.
She introduced us to hidden culinary gems we would have never found on our own—authentic, local places full of soul and flavor. Every stop was a story, every bite an experience, and Helene made it all feel personal and special.
We're so grateful for her generosity, her knowledge, and the heartfelt way she shared her city with us. Thank you, Helene, for giving us such unforgettable memories. Porto will always taste a little sweeter because of you!
Wonderful experience

Antonio was the perfect guide, showing us many beautiful places that we would have otherwised not discovered. We were treated to several different delicious culinary treats and beverages (our first Port & Tonic, thanks to Antonio ordering them, was Amazing!).
Antonio was such a perfect host and we could clearly see how passionate he is about his home city. His enthusiasm was clear to see and we appreciated Porto more as a result. We will def be coming back!
Would highly recommend him as a guide to future visitors. 10/10A Really charming & engaging Tour

Our group of 4 enjoyed a lovely Day with Gustavo exploring the Duoro Valley. He was right on time picking us up in his new Mercedes wagon. He is an area native and knowledgeable on all points of Portugals history and wine making. Everywhere we went he had friends and colleagues that took good care of us. I believe he designed this day in the Duoro for all of the guides that offer the tour.
Gustavo was fun and interesting and congenial spend a day touring this beautiful winemaking region.

Helena is a truly captivating and inspiring personality, full of warmth, charm, and a deep love for her hometown, Porto. From the very first moment, she welcomed us with genuine joy and open arms, and led us on a journey through the soul and roots of the old, authentic Porto. With her contagious laughter and radiant energy, she brought the city’s hidden corners to life – places we never would have discovered on our own.
Her knowledge of history and cultural context is profound, yet she shares it in such a vivid, engaging, and heartfelt way that every story feels alive. The five hours we spent with her flew by like a beautiful dream, filled with discovery, laughter, and heartfelt moments. It was more than a tour – it was a deep, personal immersion into the essence of Porto.
We wholeheartedly recommend Helena to anyone wishing to experience Porto not just as a visitor, but through the eyes and heart of someone who truly belongs to this city. A guide like Helena turns a trip into a memory for life.unforgettable experience and adventure

The best thing about Gustavo is how he seemed like a friend rather than a guide who was showing us around. He also tailored the programme to suit our interests, including ditching a lunch venue at the last minute when he found out my preference for modern cuisine. He’s a fount of knowledge and has an answer to any questions you throw at the man, ranging from history to culture to food. All in all it was a day well spent on sightseeing and learning about the backstory to wine production in Porto.eventful day out in the Duoro Valley

What a great way to start our time here as this tour allowed us to get our bearings and determine where we wanted to spend more time. In addition to being a great tour guide, Gustavo was helpful in providing restaurant and wine recommendations. We would recommend his tour of Porto to others as you will get the real history.Great introduction to Porto!

I always say "food is the best way to a countries heart" this tour was nothing but the best, Helena was super friendly, energetic and motherly.(I will explained what I mean about this)
The tour began learning some history of Portugal and walking on one of the street known for its shopping amount locals. We visited our 1st stop where we got to try a robust flavor of tuna and sardine from a tin. And yes I can see most asking ew from a tin. But this were no ordinary tuna and sardines. They are soaked in olive oil and other herbs. Truly amazing taste, with a side of white wine. HELENA asked if we ate sardines before and if we were ok with the bones. My wife was wiery about it but Helena even offered to debone them for us cause she use to do thay for her kids (motherly) We got to explore tomorrow of the city and made our way to try PORTUGALS cheese at the Bolhao market. To then try some pastel de nata and finally the cachorrinhos. Super delicious!!! I would definitely recommend this tour with Helena !! Best way to begin exploring Porto

We had the most amazing experience exploring the stunning Douro Valley in Porto, thanks to our incredible guide. Gustavo. From start to finish, everything was perfectly curated and intimate, just the way we wanted it.
Our day started with a scenic drive through the valley, and our guide's knowledge and passion for the region truly enhanced the experience. Lunch at a local restaurant was nothing short of delicious—authentic flavors and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
The highlight of the trip was visiting two beautiful wineries, both offering breathtaking views of the valley. The settings were serene, with no crowds, making it feel like we had the entire experience to ourselves.
If you're considering visiting the Douro Valley, this is the only way to do it. We can’t recommend Gustavo enough—he made the day unforgettable!Unforgettable

She provided us insights not only of the food culture but also of the history as well as traditions of the Portuguese people. Truly enjoyable experience and I will look her up if I return to this beautiful country.

Wir waren mit Gustavo einen ganzen Tag im Douro-Tal unterwegs. Er holte uns pünktlich im Hotel im Porto ab und zeigte uns die Kleinstädte Regua und Lamego. Seine ausgezeichneten Fachkenntnissen zur Weinproduktion und zur Geschichte des Tals liessen keine Fragen offen. Gustavo ist äusserst dienstleistungsorientiert und passt sich jederzeit den Wünschen seiner Gäste an. Wir hatten einen genialen Tag mit ihm und können eine Tour mit ihm sehr empfehlen.Genialer Tag im Douro-Tal

My wife and I had a fantastic day with Gustavo touring the Duoro Valley from Porto. He picked us up on time from our hotel in a late model Mercedes which was immaculately clean and extremely comfortable. His knowledge of the area and of Portuguese history and culture made our conversation as easy as talking to a friend, which now Gustavo is. We mentioned our interest in tasting dry wines and we visited two wineries with tasty offerings of both dry and sweet. He also stopped off at several view points to showcase the valley. We took great interest in watching a river cruise ship pass through a very large lock, a rise of perhaps 10 meters or more. We stopped at a lovely family owned restaurant for lunch and it was so good! We had the goatling with rice for two people and it fed us all. Gustavo’s wine recommendation was perfect! It was a full day of pleasant conversation and we learned a lot about the Douro and Portugal. Thanks, Gustavo! I will recommend him to everyone I know coming to Porto.Go With Gustavo!

This is NOT a review of a tour with Helena but an opinion of Helena as a person. On the morning of our scheduled tour I had a medical emergency that required an ambulance ride to a local hospital. Helena could have walked out right there since the tour wasn't going to take place. Yet she didn't do that. She took the time to contact my son back home in NY and told him what had happened and what hospital I was being taken to. She was there when the ambulance took me away and later spoke with my son inquiring about my health status. She made a stressful situation less so and for that I'm so grateful and so is my family. Thanks Helena!!!AWESOME PERSON HAS TO BE A GREAT GUIDE.

Gustavo is very knowledgeable and we learned a lot on this trip. The scenery was breathtaking, and Gustavo showed us local places where the tour buses don't stop. Since surprisingly, there was no traffic on the way back to Porto and we arrived earlier than we had anticipated, Gustavo drove us around Porto and showed us some sights that we had not been to before. Overall we are very happy with Gustavo and our tour.amazing day in Douro Valley

Helena did a fantastic job curating the foods and drinks that Porto has to offer. From the Pastel, Bolinho, tinned Sardines, the pace and locations were very well thought out. Helena added personal touches to the history of Porto and provided context to important events in Porto and Portugal. The walk around the city was leisurely and the food plenty. Helena is a superb guide. Everyone should book time with her. To not do this experience would be a big loss on your trip.Best tasting tour Porto with a Local!

We loved our food tour with Helena. She is a really warm, special person who felt a bit like family by the end of the tour. She very much wanted to tailor the tour to our tastes and interests. We enjoyed all of our stops but especially our stop at Mercado do Bolhão where we tried various cheeses and beverages, discussed Portuguese cuisine, and my teenage son even stopped to play the piano there.
Helena’s knowledge of food, Porto, and the history of Portugal was extensive. We learned so much! We enjoyed every food and beverage we tried. She did a wonderful job of including our (football/soccer-loving) teenage sons, and even ended our tour at a place that not only had wonderful food, but that was also a living shrine to FC Porto. We cannot recommend Helena more highly!

While we laid out an itinerary we found him to be very flexible; several times taking detours that ended up being so much fun! And he’s such a conversationalist!! We talked for hours as we learned about the Douro Valley! We’d call him again next time we visit just to learn more about his knowledge of wine and food!

If you are looking for a real local experice, look no furthrr as Helana is wonderful. We has a fantastic afternoon with Helena, as all 8 of us strolled the streets of Porto with Helena, stopping at various local shops to taste some the local nuts, fruits, fish, cheese, spreads, pastries, hams and bread.
Helena catered to our every need,
including the picky eaters, providing stories and information as we made our way through the streets.and side streets on our simply walk. We had our 8 month old grandson along in his stroller and I was on crutches, so a simple walk was really a simple walk.
Helena took her time ro get to know each of us individually as we walked and talked, sharing information about out families and our lives, making sure that each of us were.enjoying ourselves and learning what we liked and didn't like about the food we were trying.
Out grandson, also tried everything including the caned sardines, which he loved.
Don't miss out on this simple fun food tour, with the amazing and.womderful Helena. You will enjoy the food and.make a new friend!

Wir hatten das große Vergnügen, Helena als unsere Tourguide für eine Foodtour in Porto zu haben und können sie uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen! Helena war nicht nur extrem kenntnisreich und leidenschaftlich über die kulinarischen Schätze Portos, sondern auch unglaublich herzlich und engagiert.
Während der Tour führte uns Helena zu einer beeindruckenden Auswahl an lokalen Restaurants und Cafés, wo wir einige der besten regionalen Gerichte und Getränke probieren konnten. Jeder Stopp war sorgfältig ausgewählt und bot eine wunderbare Mischung, die uns das echte Porto näherbrachte.
Besonders beeindruckend war Helenas Fähigkeit, uns mit zusätzlichen Empfehlungen und Insidertipps zu versorgen. Ob es um weitere Restaurants, kulturelle Sehenswürdigkeiten oder versteckte Juwelen der Stadt ging – Helena hatte stets großartige Vorschläge parat, die unseren Aufenthalt in Porto bereicherten.

Luis is a fantastic tour guide! He provided a detailed tour and very enjoyable day in the Douro Valley. He gave lots of information about the region, and the wines produced there, but was equally happy to discuss all aspects of life in Portugal. He arranged some special, personal touches throughout the day; a special place for lunch, for example. He is relaxed, amiable and makes sure you never feel rushed. Would highly recommend him if you are looking for a tour guide in Porto!Excellent Douro Valley Tour.

We cannot say enough good things about our trip through the Douro Valley with Gustavo. The drive is a long one, and from the moment we got in the car, he was asking our preferences to customize our trip to our taste and interests, while also getting to know us and share a little about himself. We felt like we were on a trip with an old friend, laughing the entire time and learning so much! The wine and views were absolutely breathtaking. Our lunch was at a beautiful restaurant and the wine and food recommendations were some of our favorite of our entire trip - who knew oranges, sea salt, olive oil and rosemary were a delicious palate cleanser.
We wish that we had more time in Porto to do the walking tour with Gustavo and know if we ever make it back to Portugal, will book with Gustavo for anything that we do, from Lisbon to Porto. Highlight of Our Trip

With Helena, the three of us (my wife and my 3 years old son) felt like we met a friend in Porto. She was friendly, superb with my son. We requested a customised programme as to cater to a toddler with toddler and it was fantastic. My son was so sad as he bade farewell to her.
This was our first time withlocals, and I believe, in Porto, you can never go wrong with engaging a local guide. As represented by Helena, and multiple generous and kind people we met along the way. Friend in Porto
