Gabriela (Gabby to Americans:) was absolutely fabulous! She is from Brazil, so she's fluent in Portuguese and English. In addition, her University studies have broadened her knowledge of History and the Human Condition that belies her young age. She was informative, enlightening and downright delightful. While i'm sure she arrived with a programmed route and spiel, we let her know what we had already seen (or will be getting tours of...), as well as a list of desired destinations. She immediately customized her schedule route/spiel to our requests.
You will really, REALLY enjoy a tour with her!

Pedro was the best tuk tuk tour guide. He took us to the most special viewpoints and buildings after asking us what kind of tour we wanted. He was knowledgeable and passionate about his hometown, Porto. Pedro gave us great historical information and context to all of the places we visited. We even had a quick port tasting in Gaia. This was a highlight of our time here and a must if it's your first time in Porto.

Wow wow wow! This was the best way to explore Porto. Tiago was SUPERB as our tour guide. He was knowledgeable, kind, and a pleasure to spend a few hours with! Highly highly recommend this tour. There were so many people looking for tuk-tuks and they were very envious of us as Porto is very very hilly and a tough walk. Thank you for such a lovely experience!
