Fantastic tour
Had a fantastic tour. Andre took me round to the best viewpoints, telling me history of Porto on the way, giving me time to take photographs and taking it at the pace that was good for me.

Perfect Guide Rosario
We had a perfect tour with Rosario. She not only showed us the standard highlights of the city, but also something off the beaten path. She impressed us with a great knowledge of the history of Madeira. Her husband's sausage at the food truck was the perfect ending.
Thanks for the Tour.
