Enjoy the city centre of Porto with a private walking tour and Port Wine tasting
Overview of your Porto tour
While taking this express 3 hour tour, you will not be disappointed with the ground we cover in a short time and all the history behind each place we visit! Porto has a lot to offer and I will share with you all the must-knows, highlights and historical significance. We will enjoy the historic city centre! Starting with the Aliados, where lies Porto's Town Hall, we will head towards a bookshop which influenced J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter - the Bookstore Lello. Know why the Clérigos Tower is considered on of Porto's tallest monuments and be astonished with the medieval battles carved in the tiles of S. Bento Railway Station as well with Porto's historical McDonald's. Of course, after a visit to the very own heart of the city and its demographic core, even an express tour wouldn't be complete without a glass of port in Porto! Please, contact me if you wish to customize this tour.

Gene V.United States
André Pereira is an outstanding guide. He is very knowledgeable, personable and very thorough in his presentation. We very much enjoyed the personal walking tour of Porto from a perspective of a local. We would highly recommend immersing into the culture of Porto with André.
Rob K.United States
Andre was knowledgeable and interacted well with whole family. We saw a lot of Porto and he helped us get into the bookstore very quickly which was awesome. We had a good feel for the city at the end and feel comfortable exploring the rest on our own. At end he had some green wine tasting which was nice.
Greg V.United States
Andre's knowledge of Porto, the history of both Porto and Portugal, and his engaging demeanor made our tour exceptional. We highly recommend him to guide you through the city.

Our experience with André was most enjoyable and a great introduction to Porto. He was always interested in what would make the tour best suited to our afternoon. He also gave us recommendations for local food and other activities to see some of the hidden gems of Porto. Highly recommend, thank you André!
