This was such a great afternoon. João's enthusiasm & love of Porto made for an engaging and interesting time.
We all found the combination of social history, architecture and street art fascinating and found it really useful for the rest of our stay in Porto especially the bar & food recommendations for our teenagers.

Thank you, Joao!
Such a cool tour. Joao showed us interesting street art while explaining parts of the city. He was incredibly knowledgeable and spent a lot of time describing the art and the story behind the artists. He even pointed out local shops and restaurants to us too. We loved it. He is a true gem and we can’t recommend enough.

I wanted to see Porto off the beaten track and Ruben delivered. I saw all of the main sights with my tour group. I wanted to see the city from the point of view of the locals. The added benefit was no crowds. Ruben also gave me a brief history of Portugal. Very interesting. Be prepared to do a lot of walking including many, many stairs and hills. Wear good shoes.
