Fiz um tour maravilhoso pelo Porto com o Bernardo, e foi uma das melhores experiências! O Bernardo foi atencioso, bastante divertido e muito bem informado e partilhou entusiasticamente a história da cidade. Levou o grupo aos pontos mais icónicos, mas também a cantinhos que só quem conhece bem o Porto saberia mostrar.
A cidade do Porto é mágica. São os azulejos, as fachadas, as ruas estreitas, as avenidas, as inúmeras igrejas, as colinas, o rio, os rabelos e, acima de tudo, as pessoas. Todos aqueles que visitam o Porto deixam um pouco de si e levam um pouco da cidade.
Já dizia Agustina Bessa-Luís: “O Porto não é um lugar. É um sentimento”. E é graças a pessoas como o Bernardo que esse sentimento pode ser partilhado.
Para quem quer uma experiência autêntica e envolvente no Porto, recomendo o tour com Bernardo sem hesitar. Foi inesquecível! Obrigada Bernardo pela experiência.
