João was very professional and an excellent tour guide around Porto. He showed us some amazing places and the food he selected was very typical Portuguese food that we would have not tried if we hadn't gone with him. He is very knowledgeable of the area, very friendly, and an excellent tour guide. I highly recommend him and the tour to anyone that wants to learn about Portuguese food and wine.Great Porto Culinary Experience

More than giving us just a taste of food Porto’s food, João also taught us a little about its history and the significance of its important landmarks. I only wish that at the Mercado do Bolhão instead of having us sit at a table while he got us food he’d taken us along to the food stalls so we would learn which vendors he favored. He did send us many helpful and informative links via WhatsApp. Great introduction to Porto

We had the pleasure of taking a 3-hour custom private tour with Joao, and it was truly an exceptional experience. From the moment we met him, Joao’s passion for Porto and his depth of knowledge about the city's history, culture, and hidden gems was evident. Joao tailored the tour perfectly to our interests, which made it feel like a unique experience rather than a standard sightseeing walk. He took us to both iconic landmarks and off-the-beaten-path spots that only a true local would know. His storytelling was engaging, providing fascinating insights into Porto’s history, local traditions, and even the best places to eat. One of the highlights of the tour was Joao's warm and friendly personality. He was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly approachable, making the whole experience feel like exploring the city with a friend. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable time, answering all of our questions and even giving us recommendations for the rest of our stay in Porto. If you’re looking for a customized and immersive way to discover Porto, I highly recommend booking a tour with Joao. It’s a perfect way to connect with the heart of the city and learn from someone who clearly loves sharing its charm with others.A Fantastic Custom Tour with Joao

We had limited time in Porto and booked our food and drink tour with Joao. He was informative, friendly, and gave us a great taste of the city. We never felt rushed. His English was excellent. Private tours are more expensive but we felt it was worth the extra money for what you get. We would highly recommend booking Joao as your tour guide!Joao was outstanding!

We had a lovely day with Joao. His commentary was so interesting we barely noticed the hills. It seemed as though we walked all over Porto and Gaia. It is well worth spending a day with Joao. Getting to know Porto

João is a quiet but very attentive guide. We loved the walking around and all the places he took us, definitely ate too much but enjoyed the experience. We would have liked to hear more history about Porto or Portugal.

Joao took our family around Porto and secured us a private boat tour with Douro in board that was fantastic. We tried traditional cuisine and walked this beautiful city. Porto and beyond

My cousin and I booked this tour to get to new parts of the city we had yet to see. We covered a lot of ground north of downtown. We specifically were looking to see different neighborhoods in the city. He was relaxed and flexible about what we wanted. Like strolling with a friend
