Hello, my name is Tiago. I was born and raised in Porto — as we proudly say here, a true Tripeiro. I dedicate my time with passion and commitment to sharing with visitors from all over the world everything that makes my country so special. My greatest passions are connecting with people, traveling, design, music, food, wine, yoga, and surfing. Porto, the Douro Valley, and the entire North of Portugal are perfect places to experience and enjoy all of these elements. Representing my city and my country is something I do with great pride. Porto is one of the most eclectic destinations in Europe. History lovers quickly fall under its charm — from the stunning Neo-Gothic interiors of Livraria Lello to the iconic São Bento Railway Station. The city is also a paradise for those with a true appetite for culinary discoveries. Food lovers will feel right at home here. After 20 years working as a fashion designer, I became a passionate traveler with a unique way of connecting with people and cultures. This journey led me to create private tours focused on Porto, the Douro Valley, and the world of Port wine, always delivered with authenticity and local insight. Thanks to my background in fashion and visual arts, I have also managed numerous photo shoots and editorials. For guests interested in photography, I can offer exclusive photo tours, including professional editing if desired. I truly believe I am the right guide to help you experience Portugal in a genuine and memorable way. Let’s share an unforgettable stay together. Até já!
