Priscila knows Porto well. Our group of 4 all enjoyed the tour very much. She is very knowledgeable and took us to a couple of very unique shops we would have never found on our own. If you want to experience Porto with a local, I highly recommend Priscila!Explore Porto

We were lucky enough to have Rui as our guide for the walking tour of Porto. His knowledge of and enthusiasm for his home city was outstanding. His approach was relaxed and unhurried and the choice of a traditional Portuguese tavern for lunch was a good one. It might not be for everyone but for me an added bonus was his local football knowledge. I would recommend the tour with Rui unconditionally. Outstanding Walking Tour of Porto

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

Rui was a fantastic tour guide. It was our first full day in Porto and the tour helped us get our bearings and understand some of the history and main highlights of the city. He was kind, interesting, and friendly, and guided us at a pace that worked for all three generations (14-76 years old). As a lifelong resident of Porto, he had excellent knowledge of the city. We’d highly recommend a walking tour with Rui!Wonderful time with Rui

We had such an amazing walking tour with Priscilla. She provided an in-depth tour of areas for us to visit in Porto. We had time along the way for a little shopping and a little jam tasting (don't skip the jam tasting!). Priscilla had great information on things to do, places to eat, drink and shop, and suggestions for filling the rest of our time in this wonderful city. If you have the chance, book a walking tour with Priscilla!A wonderful start to our Porto stay

We had a great time with Priscila, learning about the history, culture, and community of Porto. She showed us highlights such as the train station, cathedral, market as well as some local gems. We enjoyed a pastel de nata and (since we love gelato) built in time for a stop for gelato and coffee. Even though it was raining, we really enjoyed our time with Priscila and feel like we learned so much. We were able to ask questions, have meaningful conversation, and left with an appreciation for Porto that we otherwise would not have. We highly recommend Priscila!Excellent and insightful

Our morning with Priscilla in Porto was truly one of the highlights of our trip! From the moment we met, Priscilla made us feel like we were catching up with an old friend. Her warm personality and genuine passion for sharing local culture made the experience feel personal and memorable. Priscilla took us to some wonderful spots where we could really immerse ourselves in the everyday life of Porto. We didn’t just learn about the food; we got to understand the stories behind the places and traditions. She had great insights into local customs, and we loved how she shared the nuances of Porto’s culture and history with such enthusiasm. Priscilla was thoughtful, attentive, and truly tailored the experience to us, ensuring it was comfortable and enjoyable. It was an unforgettable day spent in the best company.

Got a great overview of Porto. Priscila was super sweet and knowledgeable. We didn’t have a lot of time in Porto and didn’t want a long tour so this 1.5 hour tour was perfect. She also sent us a great recap of the places we talked about that made our trip super efficient and fun. Great intro to Porto

Priscila was also able to recommend other places of interest to visit as well as local eateries.Very knowledgeable and personable

We had a great few hours with Priscila, and changed our later plans because of her great choices of locations to visit. Priscila was very knowledgeable of all the main points of interest in Porto, she was very clear in her delivery of information and paced the tour well. The absolute highlight was the Farmers Market which in the end we stayed in for 3 hours instead of heading to another Port tasting! Walking around lots of great food, drink, craft stalls with a glass of wine, Port, beer was a fab concept. If we have an opportunity to come back, we will book Priscila to take us on a food tour for sure, as she’s a superstar. Saving the best till last!

We had a wonderful five-hour tour with Rui in Porto in mid-September. Coming from a family that has lived in Porto for generations, he was very knowledgeable and anxious to share his love for the city, which he did in perfect English. Porto is a very old city that has become quite trendy, with many visitors and young people, and Rui gave us a good sense of how that happened and its impact on the people who live there. We learned a great deal about Porto’s history, economy, and culture, both through Rui’s “standard” tour and in his responses to our many questions on a wide variety of topics. He paced the tour well, asking us if we were tired or hungry, and stopping to accommodate photos, etc. We had an interesting conversation over lunch about his family and life in general for people his age in this suddenly super popular city (although the food at the restaurant he chose was not very good). A small side note: If you want to see Livraria Lello, the beautiful bookstore that has become Porto’s number one tourist attraction thanks in part to its purported connection to JK Rowling and Harry Potter, be prepared to wait in a long line (€8) or get priority entry (€50). We decided to skip it. We recommend Rui without hesitation.Rui - a knowledgeable & thoughtful expert

Priscila was very welcoming, easy to get on with and had excellent English which made our Kick Start tour so much more enjoyable. We covered a fair proportion of central Porto fro University to markets and the historic centre which gave us a really good orientation and also allowed us to pick up some good tips for our walks on subsequent daysA great start

We loved our personal tour with Priscila. She is extremely articulate and provided great insights to the history and culture of Porto. We liked her local tips on where to eat, and at the end of the tour she organised a last-minute restaurant table booking and sent us a list of places she thought we might like. Over the next few days we enjoyed ticking many of them off the list. A particular highlight, not only of the tour but of our whole visit to Porto, was a late afternoon stroll around the Mercado do Bolhao with a glass on Vinho Verde hearing from Priscila her pride in the high quality of all the produce and food available. We went back there twice during subsequent days to snack. Thanks Priscila for a fantastic afternoon. Frank and AngelaFun & informative afternoon with Priscila

My sister and I began our Portugal trip in Porto. We booked the Kickstart tour with Priscilla our first morning to get the lay of the land. Walking from our hotel, navigating through construction and maps on phone that didn’t work great, we ran about 10 minutes late. Thankfully I was able to communicate with Priscila and she waited for us and gave us our full tour time. Our tour was very comfortable and informative and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. Priscilla followed up our tour via WhatsApp with a list of spots we visited and others for us to enjoy. We would highly recommend the kickstart tour and Priscilla as a guide for any Porto tour. Thanks Pricilla, for helping us get our bearings and the recommendations; we are definitely coming back to Porto!, Great start to our Porto visit!
