Amazing experience all around - My experience with my guide nuno Silva was the highlight of my trip. He took me on a smooth ride to duro valley and got an unbelievable traditional Portugal meal and the views were outstanding at the winery. Would recommend 10/10

One Cannot Change the Weather, But One Can Choose the Best Tour for a Rainy Day!☔️ - A small group tour of the city offered us an opportunity to see and visit some of the major sites. Miguel was our guide and was able to access the restricted historic district where our hotel was. This is important before it was raining! We drove pass many sites and were able to jump out and take pictures. Miguel planned our time so we could visit inside the Porto Sao Bento Train Station to see its beautiful blue and white tiles and tour the Church of Carmel along with the “hidden house” while it was raining. We also toured the Porto Cathedral and were able to see great views of the city of Porto from atop its upper tower. Fortunately, the weather cooperated a bit and we were able to take pictures with the Porto Sign, which is in front of the City Hall. This is definitely a good tour for seeing the city and major sites of Porto when it’s raining!

Half Day tour of Pronto - We had a wonderful day with our driver Chris. He was very informative as we drove and while we walked. Learned not only about the sights and city but also about the people of Porto. Answered our nosey questions about his life and family and it made the experience more personable. Thanks Chris

A perfect day in Porto with the best guide! - João Jesus is absolutely the best guide we could have found to show us beautiful Porto. Like an old friend, we enjoyed every minute with this personable, educated young man! He took his time to give us the best experience, telling stories about this amazing city’s history and culture. When our tour was over, his recommendations for the rest of our stay in Porto were perfect for us. Funny and inspiring, he is the one you want to understand Porto!

A Great Tour of Porto - Our driver + guide, Joao Jesus, picked us up on time in a clean vehicle. He was friendly and very knowledgeable about the sites we saw. He was also patient with our slower walking speed. I would recommend this tour. A great day thanks to Joao.

Sights and Tastes of Porto - My wife and I joined two other lovely couples for this small group tour. Christopher met us immediately as we exited the boat. The tour was a nice combination of drive bys and discussions of beautiful porto in a very comfortable Mercedes and a number of short walks through neighbourhoods, places, and other interesting sites including by the Douro river When the establishment where the wine tasting was to be held was closed Christopher fairly quickly found another and we tasted four very different varieties of port. A very enjoyable and recommended tour.

Porto - The overall experience was good. Chris, our guide was very knowledgable and friendly. We liked that we were picked up from the cruise terminal. We got a good overview of Porto in a short amount of time. Also, the planned Port tasting stop was closed, and Chris had to find somewhere else for us to go. It was very crowded, but he found us lovely place to sit outside alongside the river. I only have one negative comment to make. When I booked our group of 4, I didn't realize that we would be sharing our vehicle with others. The van was comfortable, but very difficult for seniors to keep crawling in and out of the way back at our stops.
