Essential Free walking tours of Porto

Harold was an excellent guide, and offered lots of info about all aspects of porto

Two hours flew out so quickly: places and locations nicely chosen, perfect English language, detailed information, nice shared peculiarities.

Our Guru Tour was lead by Harald, who provided us with an introduction to the history of Porto and Portugal and its Kings. We were a small group of around six people. Harald lead us around the streets of Porto for nearly three hours, explaining the history of the many landmarks and an insight into Portuguese culture. My knowledge and understanding of Portugal and its history has now increased greatly. Definitely recommend taking this tour, as it provides a good overview of Porto

We had a fantastic tour of the city and would highly recommend to anybody making a visit to Porto. The guru was very informative, funny and friendly and provided us with great recommendations for the rest of our stay.

Great experience and easy to follow.

The walking tour with Caoimhin was fantastic, even in the rain! With only three people in the group, he was able to personalize the experience based on our interests, which made it even more enjoyable. He provided fascinating context about the history of Porto and Portugal while guiding us through the city’s historic sites. He has a great personality and answered all of our questions thoughtfully and in depth. Caoimhin is a great storyteller, and his authentic love for the city shines through. Having moved to Porto from Ireland, he brings a unique and refreshing perspective, blending historical knowledge with personal insight. Because of his personality and perspective, the tour didn’t feel like a typical, boring, history-only experience; it was engaging, dynamic, and genuinely interesting throughout. We especially appreciated his perspective on how the city has evolved over the past decade, which really put into context how young and dynamic the country is. Highly recommend this tour!

Tiafo hit all the marks for the tour, particularly if you want to make the connections between history and the architecture and planning of the city. Add to that, the story telling of the power and political history that provides a good, nuanced context and we left feeling that we knew Porto, it's place in Portuguese and European history (with some transatlantic references) and personal pride...it all adds up to a great tour.

Inés showed us Porto right after we arrived and it was the best choice we could make! Knowledgeable with amazing vibe! Totally recommend!

Harold was a great tour guide. Very informative and answered our questions.

It was one of the best tours I’ve ever attended. He explained everything with great enthusiasm and made the whole experience really enjoyable.

We had our tour with Harold who was wonderful! He gave us just enough historic context to the main sites of Porto while also keeping the tour moving and giving us time for pictures. He 100% made our tour worthwhile. I would definitely take another guided tour with him.

Very interesting and entertaining tour with André where he told us a lot of insights about the city. We recommend it to everyone!

Super interesting tour with new insights to the history of the city!

Raquel was an excellent guide, and ready to give advise on porto attractions.

André was so professional and informative not only about Porto and Portugal but also basically everything culturally, historically. We walked around 3 hours and it was very entertaining. Answered all our questions. He gave good recommendations to experience the city like a local. His tour is highly recommended

Wow, this was an amazing walking tour! Our guide Natalia was very entertaining and knowledgeable. I learned a lot about Porto and Portugal’s history in a non boring manner. Highly recommend!

Laura was an excellent tour guide, we did the guided tour from 18:00 - 20:00 and it was really beautiful seeing the city of Porto at night. She explained excellently and it was really entertaining getting to know the story of Porto and also Portugal. As well we where the only ones in the tour therefore it was really pleasant getting to ask all the questions we had which she answered perfectly and she rally made us feel welcomed into the city. I would definitely do the tour with Laura again and I highly recommend it!
