Highlights
  • Porto Cathedral (Se Catedral) - Construction dating from the twelfth/thirteenth century, in Romanesque style, that has been enlarged and renewed over the years up to its final setting, in the twentieth century, resulting in an idealized reconstitution of the medieval cathedral. Special mention goes to: the Gothic São João Evangelista Chapel and the cloister, from the fourteenth century; the enlargement of the main chapel, the Santíssimo Sacramento Chapel and its silver altar, from the eighteenth century (mannerist); the eighteenth century Baroque frescos in the main chapel and the sacristy, by Nicolau Nasoni, and the tiles in the cloister, by Vital Rifarto; the sculpture in the Baptism Chapel, by Teixeira Lopes (father) from the nineteenth century.

Highly Recommend! - Simon was a wonderful tour guide! He answered all of our questions, gave us recommendations, but also gave us time to explore certain destinations on our own! We had a wonderful time!

Great Way to See Porto - If you don’t like to walk up hills this is the best way to see the sights in Porto. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with our guide and driver, Bernardo. Bernardo spoke excellent English and was able to convey the rich history of Porto with passion and humor. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Tuk tuk is a great way to see this city of hills and steps! - Once we had located the pick-up point, which could be a little clearer in the instructions, our guide picked us up on time, and we set off on a fun and interesting tour of Porto. Our guide was really friendly and knowledgeable and happy to answer questions and give us time to take photos. The weather wasn't great, but the tuktuk was covered, and we really enjoyed the different view points of the ciry

Great experience. - Many highlights. Loved the train station murals and trip to old Jewish area. Guide was very knowledgeable and accomodating. TikTok was a little tight for 3 persons.

Nice trip. Was cut short by 18 minutes we paid for but didn’t get. - We enjoyed the view of the city from high above and finding out history of tiles in Sao Bento rail station

City highlights! - This was a great way to see Porto, and some of the historical highlights. Our driver was good, and when he learned of some of our specific interests, he made sure to include them in our stops. The only reason this isn’t a 5*, there were three of us, and the tuk tuk was better suited to two. But, would definitely use them again.

Disappointing tour - We were 3 adults and the Tuk Tuk was way too small. It was extremely uncomfortable. Our guide did a good job and showed us some great places for photo opportunities. Thought we were going to be able to tour some of the landmarks but only went into 2 places

Great concept to see city, especially upon arrival - Published itinerary dissimilar to actual, which was fine just heads-up to not spend time choosing which tuk-tuk company based on itinerary. Our guide seemed disinterested/board with tour. Meeting spot was closer uphill towards cathedral than where indicated on Meeting Point map. I had to walk around to find our guide with tiny signage.

Tuk Tuk comfortably fits only 2 people - Bad part- Disclaimer- Writing the bad part first because there have been so many good reviews I want this to be noticed by those who are booking for 3 or more. The tuk tuk only fit 2 people comfortably. Our reservation was for 3. We have yet to get confirmation that we will be reimbursed for the unused ticket. Good part- the 2 of us who went really enjoyed it. Our tour guide Ana was extremely personable and taught us many new things as we toured the city. If you are solo or a group of 2, I’ll bump to 5 stars.
