We were the only people on the tour and received a fantastic welcome from Nuno. He was warm, friendly and very informative. We got a private tour and learnt so much about Porto. We ended in a wine cellar and learnt so much about the port wine process including tasting. He was informative and knew his wines! Again great tour and highly recommend.

Nuno, our tour guide, was a local resident with much knowledge about the city now and historically. We walked for about 1,5 hours, which was perfect. I particularly enjoyed visiting the main station. In total, we enjoyed the tour and following tasting, but if was to do it over, I would probably take a hop on/ hop off tour instead, and then organize a tasting separately instead.

Nuno has vast knowledge of Porto now and then, and also of port wine making and tasting. He took us on a 3 km walk, starting high up where the city was founded (North of the river Duoro), and ended up in a port wine tasting cellar in Gaia (southbank). All along telling stories about the city in a vivid way, involving us walking with him. Finally, he gave us, by request, several recommendations on good traditional Portuguese restaurants. This tour is an absolute must for everyone visiting Porto!
