Our tour with Joao was...

Patrick_D, Mar 2026
Our tour with Joao was fun and informative. It was obvious that he knows the history of Amarante but he also sprinkled in fun and interesting tidbits. It was easy to get caught up with his enthusiasm for Amarante. Joao answered all of our questions including showing us how to get to places using a map app on his phone.

Excellent local Amarante overview

Christopher_H, Jul 2024
Had a great two-hour tour Joao Pedro, who grew up in Amarante and knows it inside and out. Highly recommend this experience.
