Our group of friends had a memorable time on the Oporto Food Tour. Our guide Marlene was really captivating and took us on a tour of many of the must try foods in Oporto. I'll let the exact places remain a surprise, but we went to very nice local shops and restaurants where locals eat and are popular for their meals. We also made a quick tour of Mercado Bolhau and several famous landmarks and viewpoints. There is some walking involved in the tour, but nothing too intense. The tour exceeded our expectations in every way. Come hungry and ask for Marlene. We highly recommend this tour.

We loved trying different foods and our tour guide was very personable!! Different canned fish, bifanas, gilled chicken with piri piri sauce. Different wines and beer. There was more to try, but we didn’t wanna be late to get back on the ship.

Today we went on a food tour throughout Porto with the lovely Marlene. We have a few things we do not eat and she adjusted easily. We had the most wonderful and tasty afternoon. I've never tried sardines, and ended up loving them. There wasn't anything that was not delicious, and she added in a lot of the history of Porto on our tour. It was perfect.
