Hi there! Nice to meet you

Jorge

I’m a single dad with a deep passion for my hometown, Oporto. I was born and raised in this beautiful city, as were four generations of my family before me. I work with local cuisine and Porto wine tastings, sharing the rich flavors and traditions of my city.

Having traveled across four continents, I’ve experienced diverse cultures, but Oporto remains closest to my heart. On my tours, I love guiding my guests through hidden streets, revealing the secrets of where I grew up, played, and explored. I share stories about the city’s timeless architecture, preserved for centuries.

If you’re looking for an authentic and insightful tour—from breathtaking viewpoints to hidden gems—I'm your guy. I know this city like the back of my hand, and I’m excited to show you its true soul.

We had the absolute pleasure of exploring Porto with Jorge as our guide—and what an incredible experience it was! From the very beginning, Jorge made us feel like locals, not just tourists. He’s knowledgeable, passionate about his city, and full of great stories that brought Porto’s history and culture to life. We started our tour at the iconic Mercado do Bolhao and enjoyed hand crafted wines, meats, and cheeses. Later we visited São Bento train station, where Jorge pointed out the beautiful tile work and shared its historical significance. Then we wandered through some of Porto’s most breathtaking cathedrals and churches—each one more stunning than the last, and all enriched by Jorge’s insights. What really set this tour apart, though, were the local spots Jorge introduced us to. We ducked into tiny hole-in-the-wall cafés and visited out of the way old town passageways that we never would’ve found on our own. We sampled classic Portuguese dishes—everything from fresh-baked pastries to savory local specialties. Each bite was unforgettable, and each stop felt authentically Porto. Jorge’s warmth, humor, and deep knowledge made this one of the highlights of our trip. If you want to see the real Porto—not just the postcard views—book a tour with him. You’ll come away with full hearts, full stomachs, and stories to share for a lifetime. Highly recommend!An Unforgettable Tour of Porto with Jorge!

We had an amazing time with George, we were treated to lots of local food & wine and learnt a lot about the history of Porto. The highlight was Casa Expresso for the best pork sandwich we have ever eaten George is a great host. Highly recommended 10/10

We so enjoyed our afternoon with professional and conversational Jorge - he immediately “got us” - accommodating our arrival at and introducing us to the Bolhao Market - where we ate and drank several times - cheese and carpaccio and seafood - taking in the sensory experience sprinkled with his personal history visiting the Market (where he obviously knows the owner-vendors). We are city-loving walkers, and Jorge’s content and pace perfectly matched ours - and though we booked this as an introductory food tour, we knew that Jorge would provide more - he shared along our historic and neighborhood route most engaging information about Porto history and sights. We concluded our tour at a locals-only establishment, where we truly could have stayed into the later afternoon for both another meal and more getting to know Jorge - and certainly anther cold carafe of Vino Verde as our table was right next to the gracious restaurant owners who were taking in their late lunch before dinner service. That said, Jorge offered where we might eat additionally later that evening, and we obviously did exactly that - another great culinary, Porto-specific restaurant where we again felt perfectly at home and hosted. Cheers & Saude, Jorge!Perfect Pace - Drink, Eats & Porto!
