Highly recommended tour on arrival to Porto
michel_a

An absolute must tour for the beginning of your stay in Porto. The tour gives you an amazing overview of the city , its streets and history. Wear comfortable shoes!! Rui our tour guide made the whole tour very interesting and enjoyable, to the point that one didn't realize the steepness of some of the little roads. He gave us indepth info and good restaurant referrals too. Highly recommended
A perfect tour in a fabulous quaint city.

Our guide Fernando showed us not only the highlights of the city, but also the hidden spots (as the name of the tour promised) as well as the Porto from his childhood. We could feel his passion and love for his city, which makes it a very special walking tour for us. In addition we received great suggestions to further explore the city. Highly recommended!

Leonor was a knowledgeable, professional guide who made us feel more like friends than tourists. Highly Recommend!

Leonor went above-and-beyond! My wife and I flew-in to Porto Internationally, and we scheduled the tour the day of our arrival. We arrived early, but our room wasn't ready so we texted Leonor to see if we could start our tour early. She was super-responsive and modified her schedule to accommodate ours. On the tour she showed us a good blend of attractions, local food and stores. She really took the effort to connect with us, and you can tell how much she loves her city. Not only that, but she continued to text us recommendations for food, sightseeing spots and other attractions throughout our journey. I would 100% recommend to anyone new to Porto to do this tour 1st thing to get your bearings straight.
Worth every penny!

This tour was worth every penny! I honestly wasn't sure how a 3-hour private tour would go with a party of one but Victor, the guide, was very personable and enthusiastic. The tour was very relaxed and included a variety of places, from incredible views to historical sites to shops. Victor also catered the information he gave to fit specific interests that I had. Overall, I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore some unique sites!
Introduction for the city

, Jul 2022
Rosa was our guide and she took us to several viewpoints and educated us on the history and some interesting facts on the buildings we pass by. Didn’t enter any building or churches, but I did it on the first day of arrival to get an overview and where to visit, so it worked out.

Met Rosa in the town square and got a quick overview of the history of Portugal. She proceeded to show us around the city with interesting stories about each sight. One highlight was going to the small shop to get cookies and tea made by nuns. If you have several days in Porto, do this tour first and you will get a good idea as to where to spend more time.
Thank you, Andre!

Andre was a very informative, gregarious, and understanding host for my family's private tour on June 28th. We were all struck by his depth of knowledge about Porto and his enthusiasm and love for his hometown. This is a terrific way to familiarize yourself with the city and understand the context and history behind some of the Porto's most famous sites, neighborhoods, and personalities. Thank you again, Andre!
A Quieter Way to Visit Porto
Anne_B
, Jul 2022
We had a wonderful time with Orlando! This was the first thing we did upon arriving in Porto, and it was really nice to visit some quieter locations and learn about the history of the city from such a knowledgeable guide. He did a fantastic job weaving together the historical, architectural, religious and social backdrops of Porto. We have since done other more mainstream touristy events like the tuk tuk tour and port wine tasting, but our family was very happy we started with this hidden gems tour with Orlando as our guide!
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
