We welcome you to our city, Porto.

The city where we grew up and live, the city which we relish and cherish, the city we want you to love. With its medieval origins, Porto is a city that endured the passing by of centuries, having lived times of great success and others of great difficulty while keeping its charisma and pride.

These qualities were recognized by Queen D. Maria II, that named the city as “Invicta Cidade do Porto”, Porto the Undefeated City. Walk with us through narrow alleys and amazing stairways. Feel the buzz of the old city and the warmth of its inhabitants.

Discover hidden viewpoints and embrace the “Tripeiro” spirit.

We will stop in nice gardens and go down to the river that offers some of its smoothness to a colorful, tight and chaotic landscape of a historical center that evolved without urban planning and logistical concerns.

Come with us and be astounded by this magical place!

Such a great way to spend a Saturday morning! The tour was so enjoyable and out guide Neuza was amazing. She took through parts of the old town that I might not have gone to myself and taught so much about Porto’s rich history. There are some stories and legends that I know bit I learned so much more on this tour. It’s a great way to get an introduction to this beautiful city and discover many hidden gems along the way. So glad I did it and a big thank you to Mafalda for offering me the boat tour and to Neuza for her knowledge, kindness and hospitality.

We had such a wonderful day with Goncalo Valente (aka Gustav)! He was so knowledgeable and fun, it made for such a great experience. We saw so much more of Porto than we would have seen on our own, and learned a lot along the way. He also gave us recommendations of what else to see, and where to eat, which is very helpful when visiting an unfamiliar city. If you are booking this tour, make sure you ask for him as your guide, you will not be sorry.

Great experience from less touristic parts of Porto. Raquel told the story of each palce, took us inside some of the buildings, and showed the best the city has to offer. I thought we'd be super tired at the end, but we did plenty of stops along the way.
Best guided tour ever!!!

An excellent tour of Porto where we saw many hidden gems walking through the streets - and bridge view. Our tour guide Andre was excellent. He shared the history and many unique stories of the various places. If we asked more information on certain sites he was able to answer them and took us to see unique sites off the path. He recommended Tripe (a specialty) at Taberna Santo Antonio which we tried. It was very good.
