Reviews

Exploring Porto with a Pro!

Our private tour with Joana A, thru GoWithGuide was an experience of a lifetime. We had specific sites we wanted to see and Joana took us to each, provided plenty of time to explore and also provided outstanding commentary to accompany each locale. Her personal touch along with our exchange of travel stories with her made this a super memorable event. We now consider her one of our extended family and hope that we will meet again someday. If you're interested in Porto, done with a local, and experience it with a truly remarkable guide then ask for Joana! You will be greatly rewarded.

Being able to be your tour guide was a true blessing and also for me was a memorable day. Was just like showing the city to family members, with a true inspiring story! We were able to check the famous places of the city, learn some funny stories of hidden places of Porto and enjoy the unique Francesinha with a glass of fresh vinho Verde. The sun, the colours of the houses and our little morning walk next to the beach, were the perfect ingredients to our day full of laughs and incredible memories. Thanks again for giving me the opportunity to be your tour guide and truely hope our paths cross again! Great trips and wishing both of you the best in the world.

Day Douro with Joana

Joana was very personable and flexible. You knew you were with a well travelled Portugal loving citizen. Car was well equipped, she had snacks, etc. Lunch was fantastic and the Port Winery we visited was a good choice. The location is a long distance, but it didn't feel rushed. With her connections you can probably do even more personal things with people she knows along the way. She made a custom video to remember the day.

Patti and Loel, thanks so much for such kind words and was such an incredible day discovering Douro Valley, with its unique vineayard terraces that you enjoyed, specially the narrow ones! We spent our day surronded by beautiful landscapes, vineyards by the river, with conversations about Portugal, USA and Africa and how incredible was your life story! Was indeed a day to remember! Wishing you great travels around the world and keep doing an incredible job that is changing lives. Thanks again for choosing me as your tour guide and all the best!
