    Good fun and educational Porto tour.

    Shaun_W, Jul 2026
    Good fun tour and learned a lot about Portugal and Porto. Natalia was a great tour guide. My 11 year old found it a little boring but he hung into the end.

    Educational tour of Porto

    Peter_B, Jul 2026
    Our guide was very good very honest and totally committed to his work bing water and snacks and the guide was able to keep us out the severe heat as much as possible

    Viktoria was great

    Kimbrooke_P, Jul 2026
    We stayed at the river’s edge and met at the top of the city. Getting to the starting point was the hardest part. Viktoria was fun and engaging, bringing the city and country’s history to life. There is so much to see and do, one tour is not enough. Book early in the morning to avoid the heat and crowds.

    Pleasant and informative...

    Kevin_T, Jul 2026
    Pleasant and informative experience with Diogo. We saw key sites in the city. Annoying requirement for min. 100 characters!!!

    Harold Is the Best Guide in Porto – An Unforgettable Experience!

    Jillian_M, Jul 2026
    Harold was an amazing guide for our Porto walking tour! His knowledge of the city's history, culture, and hidden gems was incredible, and he shared it all in such an engaging and expressive way. It was a very hot day, but Harold was thoughtful throughout the tour, making sure our group of six could stop in the shade whenever possible, which made a huge difference. His enthusiasm and energy were infectious—it was clear he genuinely enjoyed showing us around Porto and making sure everyone had a great experience. At the end of the tour, he shared a QR code with his personal recommendations for food, drinks, and things to do. We followed three of his restaurant and bar suggestions afterward, and every one of them was fantastic. Thank you, Harold, for making our visit to Porto so memorable. We highly recommend this tour!

    100% recommend!

    Very educational tour. Harold was our tour guide and was passionate about his role. We were a group of 9 so wanted a guided tour for a taste of Porto on our first day. Recommended.

    Great, not to be missed.

    Gillian_H, May 2026
    Very informative and the guide injected humour into a lot of the talk. There was a welcome stop at a cafe/bar for a drink and a toilet break. Good recommendations on where to go /eat or avoid.

    Lesley_S, May 2026

    Outstanding Tour!

    Michael_F, May 2026
    Excellent tour. One of our favorite activities since we’ve been in Portugal. Viktoria was an outstanding guide! Spoke very clearly - provided depth of history significant while also making it very relevant. Great historical recap and a great perspective of the modern day city. Wish I had done it earlier in our trip
