Olá! I’m Luciano — a seasoned, independent tour guide based in Porto, where I’ve called home for the past 20 years. Guiding isn’t just what I do; it’s a genuine passion that’s grown from years of sharing stories, places, and moments with travelers from around the world. Over the last five years, I’ve specialized in private tours across Porto and northern Portugal. Today, I proudly offer fully personalized experiences under my own name — no agencies, no scripts, and no substitutions. Just authentic, thoughtfully curated journeys. My background weaves together a deep love for history, food, and photography. That blend shapes every tour I create — whether it’s walking through Porto’s golden-hour streets, cruising through the Douro Valley’s vine-covered hills, or uncovering the rich heritage of Braga and Guimarães. All of my tours are private and conducted in English, Portuguese, or Spanish. I design them for curious travelers who value depth, authenticity, and personal connection. And as a passionate street food lover, I’ll also introduce you to some of Porto’s tastiest hidden culinary gems along the way. Whether you’re here for a single day or a full week, I’ll tailor the pace and content to your interests. I work with a trusted network of local partners and handle all logistics — so you can simply relax and enjoy the beauty, culture, and flavors of Portugal. Let me show you this country I love — not just as a guide, but as a local host eager to share something meaningful with you.

We’ll meet right at the main entrance of Time Out Market Porto, located in the beautiful São Bento Station building. The entrance is on Rua de Mouzinho da Silveira, just a short walk from most central landmarks. I’ll be waiting just outside the entrance, holding a sign (or wearing a badge) with the tour name, so you can easily recognize me.
