Our guide Renato, just had the right balance of history and culture supported with anecdotes and facts. Our tour focused on the area round the Se, Liberdad Square and back down to the river. It gave us a good grounding of the layout and where to go to continue our exploration of Porto. Renato was passionate about Porto and Portugal and he passed his enthusiasm on to his group.

A very well done tour even on a rainy day. The guide loved his city and was full of tips and advice for the rest of our trip. He introduced us to the culinary delight that is pastel de nata.

It was a very interesting tour
Review by: Saskia S, October 2017
The tour is not as exhausting as one would think looking at the layout of Porto and there's a water bottle provided by the host :_br/_ It's really a bargain especially considering that a coffee/tea, a pastry and a port in a chocolate cup was also included. Thankfully the tour is kept very small so that you get a much more personal feeling._br/_ Renato was an awesome guide and could tell us a lot about the history of Porto and Portugal in general. He was very open and easy to talk to.

Agnes did a great job of showing us the city. We did a lot of walking and it was well worth it. We got to know Porto in an intimate way and enjoyed all of our time on the tour from the knowledge shared to the port wine tasking - it was a fabulous tour. Ask for Agnes.

Viator and Bluedragon Tours never cease to impress! I had taken the walking tour last year with Sara. This year, my daughter and I took the small group tour with Andrea.

Review by: Kathy, August 2017
This was a great way to be introduced to Porto. Our guide showed us the highlights sprinkled, with history and ample useful information. He catered for all age brackets. And all with a smile and a laugh.

This tour was amazing!
Review by: juliaanicholson, July 2017
Great tour! Our tour guide, Michael P., was very knowledgeable and excited to share his love of Porto with the group. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is because the meeting location was difficult to find. It would have helped to have been told to meet in front of the cathedral instead of the Se' neighborhood. If you take this tour, know that Se' means cathedral!

Pleasant guide, arrived on time, nice touch to bring a bottle of water for everyone._br/_ Only 4 of us on the trip._br/_ The wine/port tasting didn't happen at all._br/_ Lots of points of interest glossed over, little detail.

A basic and helpful tour of Porto.
Review by: Paramjit S, April 2017
The tour was a good introduction to Porto, its history and culture. It provided a good base from which to explore Porto further and the recommendations of places to get good food was very helpful.

I enjoyed the tour, we could cover a lot of Porto's major touristic sites in a few hours. Our guide, Andrea, was very friendly and helpful and gave us a lot of information about the city. The only downside was a few discrepancies between the advertised inclusions and what we actually had, for example we didn't have the cod dumpling or port wine tasting. Our guide gave us money back to cover the issue, but still going on a Porto tour and not tasting port wine as promised was a bit of a let down.

I did the Porto Walking Tour and it was a great experience. Our guide Renato was enthusiastic and fun. We learned a lot of interesting historic facts and also many details about day to day life in porto. The stop for Natas cakes was very tasty as was the Porto wine on a chocolate cup. A highly recommended tour if its your first day in Porto, since it gives you a nice feeling of the city. Renato then sent us via e-mail recommendations of places to eat and shop which were incredibly useful.
