Quick and simple orientation tour - If you have limited time to get a feel for a city, look no further! We zipped around Porto’ narrow, winding and hilly streets like a breeze, we are sure glad we didn’t have to walk them! We stopped at viewpoints and several places of interest and got an insight into the history of this beautiful city. Only thing to note is the location pin point shows the wrong pick up location, the pick up location is just outside of the terminal.

Despite initial challenges about a meeting time, we had an excellent tour. - We had difficulty reaching the operator about a meeting time. Both Viator and I left numerous messages, requesting a meeting time and detailed instructions for a meeting place. We were on a cruise and would have preferred to get this resolved before leaving home. Finally the night before the tour, we received an email with all of the details we required. So glad we did because our guide and driver, Fabio, was excellent. We had the perfect overview of Porto. One note of caution, if you want to go into the famous bookstore, you must buy a skip the line ticket online. The regular ticket lines are huge and there isn't enough time on this tour. We didn't get to go inside, but it truly didn't matter. The outside and crazy lines were fascinating in themselves. We had a few delightful surprises like the train station and sardine palace. All wonderful and memorable.

Best day ever in Porto - Fabio our guide was so attentive, the stops were perfect. I think we got to see a lot of the city. The train station was spectacular and Fabio did a great explanation about it. He took us to a beautiful indoor market and gave me time to shop. The sardine factory stood was so unusual.the taste of port wine high on a hill was a perfect end.

The perfect reconnaissance tour - A great way to get a taste of Porto in a short period of time. Andre our guide/ driver was super engaging, exceptionally knowledgeable and a credit to the hospitality industry. We learned a lot about the city, saw all the major sites and will definitely be back for an extended visit. When that happens we won’t hesitate to book another tour with these guys.

Good way to see Porto! - Our driver was 30 mins late & could not put the top up on the tuk tuk. But he took us high above Porto for amazing views. We saw way more in the 3-hour tour than we could have ever seen walking because the city is very hilly!
