“Two great days with Joana !!”
Joana was so very personable, friendly and knowledgeable. It was like having a tour with a friend! We had a full day walking/driving tour of Porto followed by a second full day where she showed us Aveira and Casa Nova on the coast with the wonderful striped houses on the waterfront, the fabulous beaches and the famous ceramic factory Vista Allegre. Altogether a warm and memorable two days seeing places and things we could not have discovered on our own.
Joana A.
Being able to be your tour guide was such an honour. As you mentioned, was like being with friends, so these two days were full of such wonderful moments, discovering Porto highlights and hidden places, eating the famous Pastel de nata and seeing Porto city in many different geographicaly perspetives. Our day in Aveiro and Costa Nova was also so special, with a more relaxing athmosphere, seeing its unique architecture, the gondolas/moliceiros in the canals, being near water, seeing our white sand beaches and visiting Vista Alegre. But, one of the special moments, was seeing your happy kid face, after eating your fresh sardines dish! Wishing you and Carla some wonderfull time in your travels, and also enjoying the new small members of the family! All the best and thanks for being so friendly and kind with me during these two days!

Hello Simon, thanks again for your review about our days in Portugal and how you appreciate the way i cared about both of you during your stay! Our time in Porto, exploring off the beaten track places and hidden spots, still checking the city landmarks, was a fun afternoon! But for sure Porto will welcome you again for you to explore even further this small charming city! Wishing you all the best for your incredible travels!

Hello Simon, Thanks for your time to write this kind review about yours days in Portugal with me as your tour guide. In our last day we went to Douro Valley and i believe was the perfect way to finish our tours. We had time to visit an historical village, enjoy unique landscapes and seat relaxed, while enjoy drinking a Douro Wine looking towards the river, with the vineyards around us! Thanks again for picking me as your tour guide and being able to show you some places and a bit more of our culture. Was a true honour!
