Porto Tours

Excursió molt recomanable. L'itinerari és perfecte per a una excursió d'un dia, sense presses. L'excursió ens va oferir molt de temps per explorar en lloc de sentir-nos apressats. Només hi havia uns 16 passatgers a cada excursió, així que el guia ens va prestar atenció a tots. El dinar també va ser excepcionalment bo.

I booked the boat trip through the Klook platform on the morning of the departure day, for the 2:30 PM slot. I arrived 20 minutes before departure to queue, and once on board, I could choose my own seat. After the boat set off, I was able to admire the beautiful scenery of the Douro River and the surroundings of the Dom Luís I Bridge. It was truly stunning.

Va ser una gran experiència d'un dia des de Lisboa, Òbidos, Nazaré i Porto. Realment va valer la pena el viatge. Els guies turístics Francisco i Maria són increïbles explicant la cultura i la història de Porto. Imprescindible per cobrir les 3 ciutats en un dia pauses: atraccions pel camí: guia: itinerari: mida del grup:

A staff member wearing a red jacket will be waiting at the meeting point to assist and guide you to the boarding area. The tour guide/driver alternated between English and Spanish to introduce the small stories along the way from Porto city center to Braga, and carefully attended to everyone on the bus. The weather was bad that day, with rain, wind, and fog, but even in such a disheveled state, the whole trip was enriched by the guide's added value. Bom Jesus do Monte Sanctuary, the water-powered funicular, the Five Senses Fountain, and seeing the Braga city skyline after the fog gradually dissipated, were still worth the price despite the wind and rain. The climate is volatile, and the "Casa das Estampas" shop here specializes in selling religious icons, postcards, and local souvenirs. The store has umbrellas (about EUR9) and disposable raincoats (about EUR5) available for temporary purchase, which can be effective in helping if you encounter rain in a windproof and waterproof jacket during the uncomfortable winter.

The itinerary was fantastic, and our guide Ana was very attentive. Her knowledge and experience were extensive, and she shared a lot about the scenery along the way, the Port wine-making process, the Douro River landscape, and Portuguese history. It's a great trip to quickly learn about Porto, experience Port wine, and discover a lot about the food culture.

Loved this tour, it was informative and Ricardo was a great host as were the ladies at the venues. Would recommend this

I was a bit worried about going alone before departure, but I really wanted to experience the 516 Suspension Bridge, so I signed up anyway. I was very lucky to meet a fantastic tour guide, Danny! 👍 He not only provided detailed information about the attractions along the way but also kept us laughing, which made me feel comfortable chatting with everyone despite my broken English. The other group members were also very friendly. The tour included a delicious risotto and fish for lunch. Visiting several attractions in one day made for a truly fulfilling and highly recommended itinerary! Thanks to the travel agency and Danny for helping me create such wonderful memories.

The Douro River offers various types of tours. If you're short on time and on a budget, you can opt for this one-hour cruise. The boat does not provide explanations of the sights (bridges), so it's not considered a guided tour. For the meeting point, we followed the link to the second floor of the riverside shopping area, but it turned out to be the boat company's counter with the umbrella by the river. The scenery was beautiful and did not disappoint; it's still one of the activities you should plan when visiting Porto.

Orlando our tour guide was informative and he speaks very clearly. I also like that he gave us enough time to go around and have a proper meal. The service was comfortable, if you plan to do this trip this tour will definitely save you time and hassle.
