Jose, can’t thank you enough for spectacular photos. You’ve brought us around Porto with phenomenal views and city backdrops. The photos celebrate how much fun 5 girlfriends can have. Picture perfect!

We had really fun half day. Jose's route was well thought of, giving us good feel of the city and beautiful view points. He let me try some compositions and then gave thoughtful comments. And of course along the way he took a lot of greart pictures of us. Jose is a kind and joyful soul, we throughly enjoyed our half day with him.

We had an incredible half day photography tour of Porto with Jose. He took us to places we would never have found on our own. He created interesting angles and shots for the photos he took of my husband and myself. He even held our bags during each photo! He edited and sent the photos within 48 hours after the tour. I highly recommend this tour.

We had a wonderful walking tour of Porto with José- being a professional photographer, he will take you to the best places in Porto and you will have plenty of time for photographs. José is very knowledgeable on local history and is a genuinely great guy. Highly recommend!

I was solo traveling in Europe and really wanted some nice pictures taken of me that were not selfies but would also capture the true beauty of the city. Jose was very professional and has a creative eye. He also threw in some history about the Porto which I really appreciated. We shared good conversation and overall I had a great experience! I would highly recommend this tour - memories are for a lifetime! Thanks so much Jose. Until we meet again! 🐱🐈🐈⬛

I was in Porto in Portigak with a group of friends and one of my friends booked Jose’s half day tour of Porto with photography for our group. I’m an avid traveler and I can honestly say that this was one of the best tours I’ve ever been on. Jose is such a sweet & kind man with an eye for photography and such a keen knowledge of Portugal’s history. As a local, he took us to lesser known tourists spots and took photos of our group. I’ve learned so much about Portugal’s history through Jose. At the end of the tour, he even gave us a recommendation for lunch, which was one of the best Portuguese food we’ve ever had! Thank you Jose for everything!

We’ve planned a two-week trip to Portugal—one week in Lisbon and one week in Porto. Lisbon completely charmed us—the golden light on blue-and-white tiles, the warmth of its people, and stories revealed through street art, azulejos. Each experience deepened our connection and left us full of wonder as we set off for Porto. And yet, we had no idea our adventure was about to become even more extraordinary—meeting José Santos, our new tour guide and photo adventure leader, elevated the entire experience to a whole new level. Back in Boston, we’ve already booked a four-day adventure with José: a full day exploring the Douro Valley, two half days discovering different neighborhoods of Porto, and another half day visiting a charming fishing village just north of the city. From the moment we met José, we knew we had found the right guide. His love for Portugal—and his even deeper affection for his home city of Porto—allowed us not only to see the place through his eyes, but to truly feel it through his heart. With José, each stop becomes so much more than a tourist photo-op to show friends back home. Every place comes alive—transporting us back in time and immersing us in its stories. His tales are not only rich and fascinating but also deeply personal, giving us the sense that we’re getting to know the city on an intimate level and forming a genuine connection that lingers long after the moment has passed. If you want your travels to be more than just ticking off items on a bucket list—if you’re seeking experiences that are meaningful, immersive, and unforgettable—then José is the guide for you. He allows you to truly feel, connect with, and fall in love with a place the way we did. We can’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you, José—though we’re heading home tomorrow, we’re taking Porto and all of Portugal with us in our hearts.
