It was a very nice and exciting tour through different corners of Porto. Then there are the many small restaurants and wine bars that you might not go to like that. Very perfect evening with delicious specialties. Our guide Leonor was very friendly, spoke German well and answered every question. We recommend

Excellent!! Our guide Ricardo was very knowledgeable about the history of Porto and Portugal. He mixed humor with facts and it was obvious that he enjoys his work. Small group of 2 which made the experience that much better. Walking was at an easy pace. Porto is hilly and the walking surfaces are uneven so this activity may not be suited for all. LOTS of great food and wine that I thought was a good sample of the cuisine. I would definitely recommend this activity.

A truly magnificent day!

We had a guide who spoke French very well, we had no trouble understanding! A guide who knows all the landmarks of Porto and passionate about her job! At the end of the city tour we arrived early for the last tasting meeting! To make us wait, the guide paid us (out of his pocket) a little drink !! Thanks to her, Leonor, for this day!
