A good introductory tour to Porto - This tour gave a good overview of the main parts of Porto to lead to our own exploration. Started uphill and mainly went downhill to the river. Would have appreciated some tips and suggestions of places and areas to explore further.

Truly essential to max your trip! - Maria was a fabulous guide. She was extremely knowledgeable, providing interesting facts about the city. I also appreciated how thoughtful she was, watching each of the tour members for queues that they were comfortable, happy. So great to be part of a small group! Highly recommend this tour.

Informative tour - An informative 2.5 hours with Marie. As we were the only ones on the tour it was made to our interests. She was full of facts but also gave us information on todays Portugal. As we met her a “free” walking tour was also meeting. There were at least 15 people - a nightmare in view of Porto’s crowded streets

Very good - Maria was fun and knowledgeable.
It was a small group so we completed the circuit in good time .
We did not go to Gaia and there were other places that were not mentioned or visited like the main market .

EFun Tours in Porto: Avoid Them!!!! - Through Viator, I signed up with EFun Tours to do the Essential Porto Walking Tour on May 26. Viator told me that I could find my group in a crowded plaza by looking for the guide holding an “EFun Tours” sign. I got to the meeting place, and there was no one holding an “EFun Tours” sign. Disappointed, I signed up with another tour. When I called EFun Tours and asked for my money back, they were harsh, rude, and refused to issue a refund. You should stop using EFun Tours. I have heard through a professional guide that they have a reputation for causing problems and being unreliable.
