About this activity

Being born and raised, besides living in Porto, allows us to show you places that only a local would know.

Since this is a private tour, you can customize it to suit your interests. Your guide will also give you some tips of places you can discover later on your own, like museums, restaurants and events.

Porto`s narrow and twisting streets, its medieval houses in slopes and its tile work will surely make up for a unique architectural framework. Within the city lies an undeniable historical wealth with genuine baroque churches, along with large boulevards and modern masterpieces of the most significant contemporary architects. Discover its wide green spaces as well as romantic gardens and observe the great variety of trees and flowers, like the camellias. Appreciate our granite buildings with its filigree steel balconies and our hidden skylights, trendy street art and traditional stores, where you can discover local curiosities and more.
