Highlights of Porto
Overview
Hello, adventurers! I'm Leonor, a guide passionate about Porto and the rich culture of this wonderful city. With over 20 years of experience, Porto holds a special place in my heart.
I'm here to show you the best of the city and make your visit an unforgettable memory, with the authentic touch that only a local can offer.
Our tour, from 2 PM to 6 PM, explores the historic heart of the city, with stops at Clérigos Tower, Lello Bookstore, and Café Majestic, as well as hidden streets and alleys that only someone who's lived here for decades knows. If hunger strikes, we can add a Food Tour to taste some local delicacies, or perhaps visit the majestic Palácio da Bolsa. And if you're up for it, there's also the option of experiencing a Fado event at the São Bento da Vitória Monastery.
I want you to experience Porto in a light and fun way, as if you were exploring it with a friend. I customize the tour to suit your preferences.
In the end, my goal is for you to feel Porto is as special to you as it is to me!
