5.00We had an awesome time on this tour! Porto is a force, and learning about the city while wandering both main streets and back alleys was wonderful. Our guide was clearly part of the city, with a in-depth knowledge regarding the history of Porto (which is tumultuous in many ways). She was passionate about the city and her love for it was infectious. My partner and I always seek out ghost or dark history tours, and were not at all disappointed. If you want a relaxed, fun tour, I highly recommend this one.
Amazing tour with Sandra!

5.00We did the crimes and mysteries tour with tour guide Sandra Zinno and she was absolutely fabulous! She made the tour fun, funny but also provided us with knowledge. I would without a doubt take another tour with Sandra. She made us feel comfortable and safe being in a new country as well. It was such a great time! Totally recommend!!!
Great way to see the other side of the port

5.00Very nice and informative tour. Quite different from other tours with a mysterious vibe. I enjoyed it very much - just make sure you are properly closed for the cold evening of Porto.

5.00The guide was extremely knowledgeable about Porto and the tour itself was very enjoyable. The guide took the time to answer many of our questions about Porto and showed us some interesting features of the city, on top of telling spooky stories! It was a fun thing to participate in on the evening. Would recommend.
