5.00This was an excellent introduction to Porto. Our guide Matheus was friendly and knowledgeable and we enjoyed learning about the city in his company. The tour gave us a flavour of the main sites in Porto and we found out a lot about the history of both the city and the country. There was a fair bit of walking but nothing too strenuous and it was punctuated by lots of views and information from our guide. We’d definitely recommend this as a way to start a short break in Porto.
Exceptional walking tour with a nice pace.

5.00We had a great time with our tour guide Ricardo! Small group tour, lots of stops and mostly downhill. I recommend taking the tour early in your visit as we learned of many places to go back to go inside later.
