Great Way to an Overview of Porto

Great walking tour of Porto

Published on Mar, 2024

Our walking tour of Porto with Ana was very interesting & enjoyable. We covered a lot of areas but at an easy pace, we learnt much about the history of Porto & passed many churches, monuments, a food market, various shops & neighbourhoods. We were fortunate to be the only ones on the tour & Ana was able to answer all of our questions & show us some affordable local eating options. If you get the chance, go on this walking tour with Ana!
