Great, friendly and knowledgeable!

Anselmo was such a terrific guide and host. He created such an enjoyable day and we learned so much. Can’t recommend strongly enough!

About local Katerina
17 April 2025
Fantastic way to explore Porto!

We had the best experience with Katerina on our 3 hour walking tour of Porto. We saw all of the top sites and many hidden gems. She was so knowledgeable about each location and was able to bring the history of the city to life. I highly recommend this tour and Katerina especially for those visiting Porto via cruise and have a limited amount of time to see the city.

Best Porto Guide

Priscilla did a great job showing us some local sites and sharing Insider information with us from a local point of view. She is well versed on history of Portugal as well as the current Vibe of the city. She did a wonderful job for us and is most Pleasant! I would hire her again when in Portugal and her town of Porto.

Local Guides in Porto

By having a local guide point you in the right direction, you’ll be exposed to hidden gems that you wouldn’t have known existed had you been on a regular tour. Your local private guide has grown up in Porto and truly knows the routes and attractions like the back of their hand. It’s the ultimate way to kickstart your trip, as you’ll get the chance to orient yourself around the city for your own navigation and the insider tips that only locals could provide could end up saving you lots of time avoiding areas crowded with tourists or money spent on expensive restaurants when there’s some local alternatives.

In Porto, there are so many hidden gems and treasures to be sought out that it would be a shame to miss out on them. We know that the best insights and advice when traveling in a foreign city always comes from someone that has lived there their whole life. The same way that you may be able to easily list off the best coffee shops of your neighbourhood, a private guide can give you the suggestions you need that are 100% genuine, since they talk from experience!

The local guides are always friendly and welcoming, so you’ll immediately feel at home- even if you just got there. The private tours are very flexible and easily customizable to suit your needs and itinerary. They’ll gather information of your interests and work around that, because who likes a tour that visits attractions you have no interest in? We want your journey to be unforgettable so our private guides strive to make the tour and destination choices as authentic and culturally- attuned as possible. Whether you’d prefer to visit the picturesque natural landscape of parks and beaches or go back in time, visiting museums and historic attractions, the itinerary is completely up to you! In addition to visiting top attractions like the Sao Bento or the Dom Luis bridge, a home cooked meal prepared and shared with your host is one of the best ways to get a true taste of authentic culture in Porto-literally!

Top benefits of having a private local guide

  • Flexibility – you choose the hour, the day, the place.
  • Locals know their city – they were born or lived there for many ears, they know it by heart.
  • You can set your own itinerary – you pick what you’d like to do, everything can be personalized.
  • See hidden attractions – that only locals know about.
  • Get local tips – where to go, what to do, they know it all!
  • Saves time — no waiting for others, like on a regular tour group.
  • Cultural insights – learn more about the local lifestyle
