A most enjoyable view of Porto!
Published on Nov, 2024
The Tuk Tuk tour was great. We traveled all over Porto and gained very much information from our guide. He even recommended a restaurant for lunch at the end of our tour. I mentioned that my phone was running out of battery and he loaned me his power pack to use during our lunch.
Carlos is the Best!!

There is no way we could’ve seen as many things in Porto as we did without this tour. Carlos was knowledgeable, personable, and accommodating. He took us to out of the way places and showed us things only a local would know.
