Great guide - A great guide, entertaining, fun, attentive. It has a good pace, makes the 2 h tour short. We went with two kids, afraid they'd be bored and not at all. He got them to be attentive and interested in the explanations.We definitely recommend it

To repeat. - It was great. We were only two people and he took us to places that for us would have been left unseen. The guide very friendly and knowledgeable of the city.

Great walking tour - The tour was amazing, a perfect blend of Porto and Portuguese history, fun facts and jokes. We visited some amazing spots that we would probably miss otherwise. Our guide was Diogo, he was incredible!

Recommend - Good tour and wide info on city. Easy way to get used to the city center. Details you cannot find if not walking around. City itself is full of stairs and climbing hills up and down needs good general condition

Great overview of the city and start to our vacation with a knowledgeable guide! - Fresh off the red eye, and not able to get access to our rooms until later in the day, we decided to join a tour of Porto with Ricardo as a way of gaining our bearings and riding out the jet lag. This turned out to be one of the best decisions of our trip. Ricardo was friendly, funny, extremely knowledgeable, and very candid. He toured us around the highlights of the city, and gave us great information as what he felt might be the best bets to visit on our own. We liked how he would frequently take us to lookout points to recap the places we had just visited, as it really helped us understand the layout of the city moving forward. He showed us great works of art and architecture, but also small details that would have otherwise gone unnoticed. He gave us some local restaurant recommendations upon request, but he was not the least bit salesy, which we are more used to in North America. Ricardo’s passion for Porto was very compelling, and he was the first of many, many lovely Portuguese people that we had the pleasure of spending time with on our journey. Thank you, Ricardo!

Nice round trip walk around the city - In the itinerary it said 10mins for lellos bookstore so I understood it that we had that time to go in if we wished. Disappointing that it was only 2 mins outside as i was looking forward to seeing inside especially as in other reviews people had posted pics of the inside so I took it we could go in. A bit of a let down that was for me. The rest of the tour was ok. 3 hrs passed by quickly and Ricardo is a young matter-of-fact kind of person. In his line of work he can’t be judgemental on religion as he never knows who finds it more important than his own views on the subject are. Nevertheless he made the tour interesting and gives you a feel of how walkable Porto is.
