5.00Pacio was our guide on our sidecar journey. He told us about Porto and took us to see Gaia. He made a fabulous recommendation to Restaurante Vapor and showed us the beautiful oceanside as well as the river. We had so much fun exploring on our sidecar trip. Also the last tip he recommended - was the Portuguese ice cream at Cremosi - 😋 Yum!
Unforgettable experience at the João Marques Sidecar

5.00I had the pleasure of making a historic tour of Porto on a sidecar and of the various tours that I have done, this was undoubtedly one that captivated me most and that I will keep in memory. It is a very fun and different way to get to know the city, allowing a fantastic proximity and interaction with the people and with the city. The guide and host, João Marques, was of exemplary professionalism. In addition to being friendly, he demonstrated a great knowledge about the history of Porto and its people. An excellent experience that I highly recommend to those who visit Porto. Paulo Cunha / Panama
