Hi, I'm Ana, a passionate about tourism, heritage, Portugal and the North! Porto and the North of Portugal represent for me: my roots, family, authentic traditions, contact with nature, holidays, the Flavours of the land and sea, the sound of seagulls, the gentle smile, and much more!! Come with me on a visit and learn about the history, architecture and charm of Porto and the North! I will give you the opportunity to visit monuments, but also to know the unique character of its inhabitants and I will not forget to mention several curiosities and even some intrigues of the time . . . The Jewish heritage in Porto is one of my best rated tours, that I provide in this city. Join me and meet genuine and emblematic sites that enhance the history of Portugal! ✅ Some advice: If you prefer a quieter time with fewer people, I recommend making your reservation during the afternoon. The most popular tourist attractions are São Bento Station, the Lello Bookstore, and the Cathedral, especially in the morning. At the food Market Bolhão there are many people between 12:00 and 3:00 PM.

This was quite possibly the best tour I’ve ever taken. And I’ve taken many. Ana was absolutely delightful to work with, from making the reservation, communicating well and timely, to the execution of the tour. I gave her a list of “ must dos” and she exceeded every expectation. I would highly recommend Ana! Ana, thank you so very much for making my tour both educational, entertaining in memorable. All the best!

Ana’s private tour was good for us. We were able to move at our pace. Our tour started at a higher elevation and we went downhill to the waterfront. We crossed into Gaia and took the cable car walked back to Porto. The amount of time on the tour was good, not too long and not too short. She has an easygoing personality and is knowledgeable about the area and the history.

She was factual, informative and clearly described events and historical fact so very clearly that we felt the event she discussed was actually happening before our eyes. We can not say enough about her competency. She made our trip. Ted and Nancy Btother Naples, FL
