My husband and I had such a fun afternoon on our food tour in Porto with Miguel. In just 3 hours we were able to go to so many unique places and taste a number of interesting Portuguese delicacies that we would otherwise not have known about. He took us to so many interesting places that we otherwise would’ve walked right past. Miguel knew all of the locals and was truly able to make it a very personalized experience. We would definitely do it again! Obrigado Miguel!
