Beautiful Porto - My husband and I enjoyed our private day trip to Porto from Lisbon. What a beautiful city with so much history. We loved the Livraria Lello bookstore—what a treasure. We finalized our trip at the Taylor port tour with tasting which was both educational and delicious port tastings.

Fabulous guide to Porto - We had a fabulous tour with Goncalo! He was amazingly knowledgeable about the area of Lisbon as well as Porto and everywhere in between. He offered every amenity and was extremely accommodating. Wherever we wanted to get out, he made arrangements but also had a perfect itinerary scheduled. He took us to coffee, set our lunch reservations and when our group couldn’t decide on a port wine tour and tasting or river cruise he booked both for us and managed to get all of us to what we wanted and then all gathered up again seemlesly. He was so gracious and helpful, I would recommend him to everyone!

A unique experience! - Porto transports you back in time. It is a very picturesque place.
On the other hand, our tour guide, Gonzalo, is a very knowledgeable, kind and friendly guy, and he allowed us to make our experience flexible, according to our interests.
We loved visiting the most beautiful bookstore in the world, and eating Iberian ham with a glass of wine, while we walked through the local market.
We had dinner in front of the river in a restaurant with a spectacular view, and we ended up tasting the adults' port, and the children a glass of sparkling grape juice.
One hundred percent recommended!

Great full day trip to Porto with Goncalo - Goncalo was a wonderful tour guide! He was knowledgeable, accommodating, and charming. Everyone in my family truly enjoyed this full day trip to Porto. I highly recommend taking any of the LusaXperience tours with Goncalo. I’m confident he would be an equally amazing guide no matter where you go.

He made everything comfortable and possible! His knowledge of the history ,the safety journey of how he takes us to the road were extremely valuable for our group. My niece and nephew enjoyed the experience and it’s all because Goncalo made it so seamless !
The sights are amazing and the Taylor Port wine tour to end it was on point!
We highly recommend Goncalo with our family and friends!

We had such a perfect day... - We had such a perfect day all thanks to G! We climbed up 225 stairs of a monumental cathedral, saw amazing views, visited the Harry Potter library, shopped at the bubble market and the downtown, went on an awesome boat ride, and enjoyed some port wine. G is extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of Portugal, he answered all of our questions, he is funny, kind, and personable. I would recommend him to any family, friend, or even stranger. He is the BEST tour guide!
