Hello, I'm Magda and I would be so pleased to host your in my hometown Porto and/or other towns in the Northern Portugal. I graduated in History of Art at Faculty of Humanities, University of Porto, worked as a teacher, art gallerist, bookseller and finally as a tour guide (and I loved all these previous jobs!). My tours are focused on Architecture, Art and History, but the charm of Porto goes beyond that: traditions, legends, secrets, food... My main purpose is to show you what really makes us different and unique. (sometimes I'm the traveler, taking pictures of my favorite spots - you check the gallery :-) I'm available and pleased to create the best plan for you, according to your preferences. Looking forward to meeting you! Best

Olá, dear traveller. My name is Alessia,born in Italy but raised as citizen of the world, in soul. I studied Foreign Languages and graduated in Tourism as certified European Tour Leader. My inescapable passion for travel, for cultures and photography led me to Portugal, where I fell madly in love with Porto, living it with overwhelming love and losing myself in its history and tradition, among sunshine and waves, breathtaking views, excellent Portoguese wines and cuisine but above all, among the romantic and timeless glimpses of its invincible beauty. Come with me on a journey through the scents of old markets, of stories of authentic people, sailos and conquerors ... till the secret places that only locals and those who enjoy the less touristy routes can know. If you are looking for a tour that can be different from the ones in the catalogues and that will captivate you with Portuguese tales to take home as a precious souvenirs - this is exectly where you will find it.

In the United Kingdom, I graduated in Information Systems and returned to Porto to get a Master's degree in Management. During my degree in the United Kingdom, I made friends with students from various corners of the world: Italians, Germans, French, Senegalese, Thais, Malawians, Turks, Poles, Czechs, etc., also living in students accommodations in the university campus, where the kitchens were shared, one of the things that gave me greater pleasure, was to share our different gastronomies, besides, each one love to mention what can best be discovered in each country and in their native cities, without forgetting soccer preferences! At the same time, I got a part-time job on the weekends at the Holiday Inn Hotel, to help with my expenses. There where I worked nights in the bar and restaurant. Here, once again, I shared and heard stories from the four corners of the world from my colleagues and guests. Then, on my return to Portugal and after taken a Master degree in Business Management at FEP (Faculty of Economics of Porto), I started working 9 hours a day in an accounting office making business and financial plans. Tired and seeing that this would not be a future for me, I decided to create my own business in the tourism sector and in an area that has always attracted me, the travel sector. That's how I decided to open a travel agency initially specializing in incoming tourism, more specifically on sightseeing tours and later in outgoing tourism. As I felt I needed more knowledge in the area, I enrolled in the course of certified tourism driver of the Escola de Turismo do Porto. This was an intensive 350-hour course of study in local guiding and domestic and international tours directing. I received my SNATTI (National Union for Tourist Guides) membership certificate on May December 20,2020, and it has been a blessing ever since. I have a Portuguese Class B Driver’s License and I also have a First Aid Certificate.

My name is João, a native son of Porto. I've been a certified Tourism Animator for the last 5 years, a Gentleman Rider for a few decades now and most importantly, in love with my city, her stories and importance in the World history. After a successfull, but not very fullfilling, career in management and mechatronics engineering, I decided to create experiences that would allow me to work on and share my passions: my classic motorcycles, the love of my city, history and storytelling ( yes, I talk a bit!) That combination came together naturally to create my tour experiences that use the old neighborhoods, landmarks, viewpoints and facades to tell you the history and stories of Porto. ( It also allows me to start tours with guests and end with friends. ) My tours focus on: Porto history, local stories, local perspective, landmarks, vistas & viewpoints, photography, Port wine tasting. After being a tourism guide for 5 years I realize that meeting new people and seeing them fall in love with Porto is what I really love to do. I hope to meet in Porto soon! Disclaimer: I'm also a part of secret world conspiracy to make people fall in love with Porto. . . you've been warned :) I will be your private guide. Welcome to Porto!

Ralfe F.
Welcome to Northern Portugal! My name is Ralfe. I was born in Amarante in 1991. My entire childhood was spent in this small but beautiful town, where I lived with my parents. My maternal grandparents were from the Douro Valley, so I have a great connection with this beautiful region, of which I am very proud. The Douro valley is the most famous wine region in Portugal. With vineyards on both banks of the Douro river, here the so appetizing and tasty Port wine is produced. From an early age, I began to explore my country and discover places of incredible beauty. In 2019 I started working as a tour guide, falling in love with sharing all the knowledge I've acquired so far. My goal is to create friendly relationships with everyone I visit and have the pleasure of meeting. These relationships are based on transparency, simplicity and trust. I prioritize sharing experiences so that all the experiences I organize are more enriching. I feel like a host in my own country, and I am available to personalize my tours according to your preferences.

Being an off-road driver for over 30 years, I know Portugal inside out, literally “off the beaten track”. Making friends along the way and getting to know their culture and history, led me to organize tours and trips. Me and my team of guides know all corners of Portugal. Our team members include me (John), Rodrigo, Maia, Paulo and Ricardo. We all put our heart and soul into each experience. As a result, taking travellers beyond the destination, away from the usual touristic hustle. With this, we have been leading Private Tours in Portugal for over 10 years.

Olá! Hi! My name is Izzy! Thank you for coming to my page and hopefully soon to Porto! Originally from Lisbon, I moved to Porto in 1998 to study Biology. Whilst doing an internship in Food Safety, I discovered that working 24/7 in a Research Laboratory wasn't for me. I lacked human contact - communicating with people is my passion! For this reason, I decided to follow another great passion of mine, Fashion, and for a year I lived in Paris, where I trained in Image, Communication and Protocol in Politics and Business. While working in these areas, I was invited to organise and accompany private tours in central and northern Portugal, thus discovering a new passion: Tourism and Hospitality. Although I spend my time between Porto and Lisbon, it was in Porto that I chose to live (for more than half my life now). The city, its people, its food and wine, its rich and diverse history and its world-renowned cultural treasures are truly unique. With a deep knowledge of Portuguese history, culture and traditions, I aim to provide truly immersive experiences. Mainly historical, my tours are also storytelling, bringing to life the main historical events of the places we visit (and some of their best-hidden secrets) with real and personal stories (with family on both sides of the dictatorship, I have no shortage of stories), in tailor-made experiences, often along unexpected routes, and where no topic is off limits (not even politics)! If what you value is going beyond superficial experiences and getting into the heart and soul of a place - only by understanding the local history, heritage diversity and culture can we add depth and meaning to a trip - then MY tours are YOUR tours! See you soon!

I'm from Porto and very enthusiastic and passionate about my city's history, sights, curiosities and hidden gems. Portugal is an old country with a long history that can be explored through it's monuments, churches and little side streets, and I look forward to showing everyone its beauty and secrets! I studied Tourism at World Travel School in Amsterdam, Holland. When I finished my degree in 1992, I moved back to Porto in 1992, and have lived here ever since. I've had many tours with all kinds of different people from all over the world, and love showing off why my city has become my passion!

Pedro D.
I'm Pedro. I've been a tour guide in Porto and Douro since 2015, crafting city tours and wine tours! I consider myself a "Wine nerd". I love weird statistics about wine and have attended Portuguese wine tasting courses. My goal is to have a sommelier certification by the end of 2024. I have a strong link to the region and like to be on top of all details and latest news of the wine community! I'm a father of two, I enjoy meeting people and have lots of stories to tell!
