Porto Passeios

It was a great one-day experience day trip from Lisbon, Obidos, Nazaré and Porto. Really worth the trip. Tour guides Francisco and Maria are both amazing, walking through the Porto culture and history. A must-do to cover all 3 cities in one day. breaks: attractions on the way: guide: itinerary: group size:

Staff in red jackets were waiting at the meeting point to guide us to the boarding area. The guide and driver used a mix of English and Spanish to share interesting stories along the way from Porto city to Braga, and thoughtfully checked in with everyone in the car. Despite the bad weather that day – rain, wind, and fog – the entire trip was enriched by the excellent guidance, making the experience truly worthwhile. The Sanctuary of Bom Jesus do Monte, the funicular, the Five Senses Fountain, and witnessing Braga's city skyline emerge as the fog gradually cleared, all made the trip worth the price, even in the wind and rain. The weather here is unpredictable. The "Casa das Estampas" shop, which specializes in religious icons, postcards, and local souvenirs, sells umbrellas (around EUR9) and disposable raincoats (around EUR5) for last-minute purchases. These can be very helpful during the winter if you encounter rain and still feel uncomfortable even with a windproof and waterproof jacket.

We enjoyed the tour with a variety of wine tastings. Our tour guide, Thomas, explained the history, economy, and industry of Porto. It was very insightful. Also, our driver Carlos drove very gently, making the long journey comfortable. The food was good, and the only thing I would like to mention is the quality of the coffee. I didn't drink the coffee after a small taste, and I noticed other participants didn't finish theirs either. Overall, it was a good experience and worth joining the tour.

I booked the boat trip on 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 after boarding, I could choose my own seat. After the boat set sail, I was able to admire the scenery of the Douro River and the surroundings of the Dom Luís I Bridge, which was truly beautiful.

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

The Douro River offers various types of tours. For those with limited time and budget, this one-hour cruise is a good option. There is no commentary on the attractions (bridges) on board, so it doesn't include a guide. 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 a sun 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.

The itinerary was wonderful, and our guide Ana was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable. She shared a wealth of information, from the scenery along the way to the Port wine production process, the Douro River landscapes, and Portuguese history. It's a great tour for quickly getting to know Porto and experiencing its Port wine and rich food culture.
