Great tour - We had such great time. The guide, Mariana was great, food was gorgeous and people in the restaurants were all so nice. Mariana knew about Porto so well and it was nice to be guided by someone really loves the town. We stopped at 3 restaurants and all the places provided beautiful Portuguese food with explanation which was interesting and yummy. We felt very welcomed by the restaurant staff. I am really glad I joint the tour.

Nice afternoon tour - We had a great time on this tour, learning more history about the city as well as eating some delicious food and wine (3stops!). Rosa our tour guide was sweet and knowledgeable. We lucked out and it was only the two of us with the guide and we felt like we had a private tour of the city. Thank you!

A nice walk with great eats! - This is a fun way to spend an afternoon. We sampled traditional local delicacies paired with appropriate espresso, wine or beer. From pastries, to cheeses and sausages, to a unique dipped shredded pork sandwich. This is a great way to get an overview of the city and get a feel for the best of the local cuisine. Our group was made up of fun travelers, so we were able to share our experiences in Porto and get some great tips too. A unique experience well worth a try!
