Explore the city on foot with an expert local guide. Discover hidden gems, learn fascinating history, and enjoy a relaxed 2-hour stroll through the most iconic and charming parts of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. As the vibrant days of summer begin to wind down, we're trading in our wheels for walking shoes! After an incredible season of bike tours through Portsmouth’s scenic streets and coastal paths, we’re excited to slow the pace and bring our tours to the heart of the city on foot. Our guided walking tours offer an intimate and immersive way to experience the charm and history of Market Square and beyond.
Why the switch? Bike tours are a perfect fit for the warmer months, giving us the freedom to cover lots of ground and enjoy the breeze along the waterfront. But as the air turns crisp and the leaves start to fall, there’s something special about walking through the historic streets, taking time to appreciate the architecture, stories, and local culture — step by step.

This tour was fun and informative. We learn the history of the area and were able to take in incredible scenery. Our guide, Dawn, was informative and friendly. We highly recommend booking one of Port City's tours. We plan to do the coastal tour on our next visit.
