Absolute Perfection! Antonio Deserves Beyond 5 Stars! We are a few weeks late in posting this. We had a private day with Antonio on August 11th. If you are visiting Porto, booking a private tour with Antonio is an absolute must. He delivered stellar service from start to finish, and our time with him was the absolute highlight of our trip. Not only did we have a fantastic time, but we also learned so much about the rich history and culture of Porto thanks to his incredible knowledge and storytelling. Antonio picked us up right at our cruise port. Having private transport made navigating the city completely seamless and comfortable. It was the right mix with driving and walking. He has a brilliant itinerary that hits all the iconic landmarks, but he is also incredibly flexible and completely customized the day to match our personal interests. We covered an amazing amount of ground without ever feeling rushed. Port wine cellars, complete with a fantastic wine tasting. Antonio’s warmth, professionalism, and dedication to giving his guests a perfect day went far beyond standard hospitality. He truly gave us an unforgettable experience. Do yourself a favor and book with him immediately—you will not regret it! Thank you!

This was our first visit to Porto and Antonio showed us many must see places. From beautiful vistas, to the historical town, port tasting, delicious lunch overlooking the Atlantic and a lovely boat cruise on the Douro. He was enthusiastic and full of history and interesting facts. He is a delight to spend the day with. Since we were on our own the following day, he gave us many ideas and suggestions of what to do.

We experienced three wonderful tours with Antonio during our visit in Porto in April 2023. He is a true professional tour guide. His knowledge of the history and importance of sites as well as his flexibility in adjusting his programs to our interests and time was most impressive. Antonio has a very interesting personality that makes spending long days with him a most enjoyable journey. We highly recommend him to any traveler seeking tour guidance in Portugal.

On August 9th, my husband and I and another couple spent the day with Antonio in Porto. It was an amazing day from beginning to end. He picked us up at the dock where our Viking Osfrid was docked. We toured the center of the city, visiting two cathedrals, the railroad station and the book store made famous by JK Rowling. We had a delicious lunch with a spectacular view of the river. We ended our day with a cruise up and down the river. I would recommend this tour and Antonio to anyone visiting Porto
