We had a lovely tour of Porto. Roberto was very knowledgeable and shared so many great details about the history of Porto and the architecture. We felt the tour could have been a bit more cohesive and felt somewhat scattered but really appreciated the extra time that Roberto spent with us.

Francesco was fantastic! Very knowledgeable tour guide and informative tour. Full of the history of Porto as well as the local culture, cuisine, and customs. Francisco went over the allotted time by more than an hour to make sure we saw everything. I highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to get to know Porto.
