Hi, my name is João I'm Portuguese, born and raised in this beautiful city of Porto I am a football / soccer fan. I acquired this passion from my grandfather who led me to start playing at a very young age as he was the founder of a team in Lisbon and, due to a knee injury, it took me away from the sport at the age of 19 yo. I had always a passion for history, so after living the practice of sports I applied to History and Arts University where I graduate. Through an invitation of a friend of mine, who is a travel agent and private guide, knowing my passion for history and fluent English speaking, I have been a private tour guide for 8 years now. Due to my acquired experience I have prepared a set of tours for you to choose, all customizable. 
I also have the ability and the means to easily adjust any program or create a customized itinerary due to your interests, half-day, full-day or even multi-day, all over Portugal, accommodating up to 4 person or bigger groups. Looking forward to meet you in Porto! João B. I'm qualified to work under the License of Tourism of Portugal nº 652/2015. I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of some historical monuments.

    Joao did a wonderful job providing the history of the Valley. He provided a wonderful day where we did not have to worry about making decisions or plans - he had it all mapped out and taken care of. His local knowledge was amazing and it was obvious he has built a stellar reputation with the proprietors of the wineries and restaurants he took us to. Great day!

    We had such a good time with Joao - from the time he met us at the airport, to delivering us to our hotel several hours later, Joao packed our afternoon with all the sites of Porto. His knowledge of history, current events, and interesting stories of all the places we visited was incomparable. We highly recommend his services.

    Joao was a fabulous guide! He has perfect English and very knowledgeable. We learned so much. He took us to a great place for Port wine tasting. He also took us to a favorite restaurant for lunch where we could try Portuguese tapas with our meal. Joao took us to see a McDonalds which is a UNESCO site- gorgeous stained glass murals and crystal chandeliers! It even had a...
