Hello and welcome to Porto, My name is Jorge and I'm one of the locals but I'm also a qualified, accredited, and insured guide. I have a degree in Tourism and I'm a certified Official Tourist Guide by SNATTI. I was born and raised in Porto and my hometown remains my passion but if I must choose a subject, I will say that my preferences are architecture, art, history, Port Wine, and the Douro Valley. I write the tours myself, making every Porto walk and private tour unique. This means you get a personal and passionate delivery. Private guided tours are a great way to experience the city over a short amount of time. They also allow you to learn more about the history and culture of Portugal as part of an immersive and interactive experience. Choose your favourite tour or feel free to suggest alternative places and activities that strike your interest. Let's have fun… . Bachelor's Degree in Tourism by ISCET. .
