What an amazing experience!! Our guide Gonçalo was super friendly and funny and he taught us so much about the authentic foods and drinks of Porto as well as introducing to us Portugal’s history and culture. His kindness is to be commended because I had a bit of a hard time finding the meeting point but he communicated with me before the tour to welcome me, introduce himself and ask if I had any questions. I hadn’t any at that time, but when I was lost, I reached out to him and asked him for help. He guided me and then met me at the intersection where I was once I was close to the meeting point. I also really appreciated the small group format of this tour because it made it more personal and it was fun getting to know the others in our group! This was my first time in Porto, and albeit it was a quick, three day trip in Porto, this tour was my favorite activity. I went back to one of the restaurants for dinner, which we had been to that morning for breakfast, and had I not known about this restaurant from the tour, I would have been missing out on one of Porto’s best hidden gastronomic and historical gems. Overall, I highly recommend this tour and especially with Gonçalo as your guide!!
