Overview

Join us on a walking tour of Porto where, beyond its rich history and culture, you'll also gain a local’s perspective on what to do, where to go, and what you simply can't miss.

Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996 and frequently voted Europe’s top travel destination, Porto is a city that captures hearts with its beauty, tradition, and soul.

Our guides will take you on a journey through time — sharing the stories behind the Douro River, its iconic bridges, the famous Port wine, and the city’s unique culinary delights.

But we go further: you'll also learn about the broader history of Portugal, from its early roots and imperial past to the 20th century, when it experienced the longest dictatorship in modern Europe.

And to round off your experience, discover the essence of fado in an intimate and moving experience at our exclusive venue in Praça Trindade, right in the heart of Porto.
