I booked the tour, nobody shower up and I didn’t even get the refund. It was terribile. They wanted to give me a fake guide because the agency guide couldn’t come!

Our walking tour of Porto with Ana was very interesting & enjoyable. We covered a lot of areas but at an easy pace, we learnt much about the history of Porto & passed many churches, monuments, a food market, various shops & neighbourhoods. We were fortunate to be the only ones on the tour & Ana was able to answer all of our questions & show us some affordable local eating options. If you get the chance, go on this walking tour with Ana!

Unfortunately, Porto is currently a city in March 2024 with a lot of construction sites. The subway under construction is very inconvenient in the center, central squares are closed, traffic is restricted, it's no fun because real tourist attractions are also affected.
It seems to be taking even longer.
If we had known that, we wouldn't have traveled, not ideal for a city trip at the moment.
The weather in March was very rainy and windy, unfortunately we didn't have a nice stay.
There are also a lot of construction sites in the rest of the country, not recommended for a trip in the off-season.

Ana was incredible! Very warm, knowledgable, and her tour of Porto was peppered with many personal anecdotes, memories and stories that only someone with such a rich life and personal connection can provide.

We loved every moment.

The tour was very informative and covered many of the interesting sites of Porto. Spent more time in a car than anticipated and I think three hours was a bit too short. I think 4-hours would have been better with more walking.
