It's always a pleasure to show my old contemporary city of Porto, that I love and know every corner like the back of my hand. I'm fluent in English (US), please take a minute to read my reviews, they picture me best. I'm not your typical local guide, I always have a special inside to provide. I lived and study in Porto all my life. I'm a Clinical Psychologist. I enjoy very much doing tours in my beautiful City of Porto, as well as the North of Portugal. The best part of traveling is really getting to know a place with someone who lives there. With me you are guaranteed to have the best local experience and a real sense what Portuguese people are all about, in a easy, relax and fun way. We will explore the best sites and the historical and touristic places. In my tours I also like to show some hidden gems, that you won't find in any travel book. I never do two tours alike, there's always something unique to make it SPECIAL. My tours are PRIVATE, and done on a PERSONAL level! You will always have my full attention. Tours can be all personalized, according to your wishes and preferences. I only do tours for ToursByLocals. com and always adapt the tours to suit the interests and preferences of the travelers. I'm also available to offer a multi-days itineraries, in the North and Center of Portugal. I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of the historical monuments.
