“Great day with Joana inDuoro Valley”
We had an outstanding day with Joana touring Douro Valley. Everything was perfectly organised. Joana was engaging and nothing was too much trouble. Her attention to detail was excellent and even extended to giving us several tips on what to do in Porto in our days after the tour. Most enjoyable

Being able to show you and your super lovely family the Douro Valley was wonderful! From visiting a very local place and trying Moscatel wine, to taking in the incredible views that only the Douro Valley has to offer, enjoying a lovely lunch by the river, and finishing with a wine tasting, it was a truly fulfilling day. It was very interesting to hear you mention, throughout the day, the sense of peace you felt. Nature and the countryside really do give us that amazing feeling. Wishing all of you many more wonderful trips around the world. Keep creating those amazing family memories!

“Porto trip ”
Joana A was a terrific guide for our family of 10. She was so friendly and knowledgeable. She anticipated our needs and kept everyone involved. She goes above and beyond. Since our group went from ages 4 to 80 that was truly exceptionable. The four days with her made the experience in Porto truly memorable. I would highly recommend Joana if your are visiting Porto.

Being able to show Porto and around to you and your amasing family of 10 during 4 days was a true honor. Since the moment I picked you all from the airport and being such a cool and friendly family, I knew we would have a great time exploring Portugal! Specially Porto city highlights, doing a Pic Nic in Bom Jesus de Braga, experimenting portuguese slow life with a lunch by the beach, experience an adventure jeep tour in the mountains and just being able to share our food, culture, lifestyle, beautiful places and buildings that are part of our history. Being able to see your smiles along these days, and the great conversations we had, made these days very special for me. Thanks so much for picking me as your tour guide and being part of your family trip, was such an incredible experience.

“Absolutely amazing and unforgettable ”
Joana was absolutely the best tour guide that we have ever had. She made the experience so special and tailored the entire tour to our specific needs. She made us feel comfortable from the moment that we met her, and even from the communication that we had before the tour. I would recommend Joana to all of my friends and family for any tour around Porto. I highly recommend Joana for your next experience whatever your needs may be. Thank you, Joana for the amazing immensely memorable time that you provided for myself in my family.

Your kind words mean the world to me. For me was a very special day, as not only i was able to show you Porto city highlights and also some local places, but also being able to share interesting conversations about Portugal curiosities, compared to other countries! Was a true privileged to spend the day with such fun and relaxed family, that made the day totally perfect! I believe the highlight was our lunch, with typical portuguese food and a good cold Super Bock beer, where we could enjoy what life is all about, caring people around us, so many laughts and listen to your parents wise life advices. They were the best and so funny! Thanks again for picking me as your tour guide. I believe some people come to our life, as family that live in another country. All the best to all of you.

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

Pedro C.
Hello! My name is Pedro, a local guide from Guimarães, proudly known as the “Cradle of the Nation.” I’m 30 years old and have been guiding travelers across Porto and Northern Portugal for more than five years. I’m passionate about culture, history, and storytelling, and I love sharing my region’s heritage with visitors from around the world. I am cheerful, energetic, and friendly, always creating a welcoming atmosphere and connecting with my guests. Besides guiding tours, I also provide long-distance transfers and visits to other destinations upon request. As a wine lover and founder of my own company, I specialize in private, comfortable, and authentic experiences. I offer complimentary pickup and drop-off in the Porto area, using premium vehicles such as a Mercedes Class V (7 seats) or BMW Series 5 (4 seats). I organize tours in the Douro Valley, Porto, Aveiro, Costa Nova, Braga, Guimarães, and other regions, including scenic transfers between Porto and Lisbon with optional stops. All experiences are fully customizable to suit your preferences, pace, and travel style. My goal is to make your visit to Portugal memorable, fun, and enriching.

Joao M.
Hello, I'm João. I was born in Coimbra, and I have a degree in Anthropology, and master's degree in Cultural heritage, management and programming. I am a certified guide. I love meeting new people and helping them get to know my country better. If you enjoy history and want to learn more about our culture and traditions, I think my tours are the best choice for you. I work mainly in the city of Coimbra, and around. I am based in Coimbra region, but I am also available for tours in Lisbon, Aveiro, or Porto. I will be happily suggesting you a full customized tour in these 3 cities. Please send me a request, just customize your request. This is just a suggestion, but If you are very interested in history and would like to take an original tour in Lisbon, we can visit various archaeological sites in Lisbon (such as Roman cisterns, city walls, and Iron Age neighborhoods), sometimes walking through unexpected places, such as shopping malls or under hotels, banks, churches, and even bathrooms (public, clean)... History is where you least expect it. Thank you!
