    One of my best tours with your company, and this is my fourth. Your tours are fantastic and the tour guides are the best. Almost all of the stops were at places the local people ate.

    We had the most amazing time with Magalie exploring the fishing industry of Matosinhos - an area just 5 miles from Porto. It’s not just sardines (although we did have a few) but it’s the chance to see the fishing port and fish markets at close hand as well. Magalie knew all the best places to go for fish, pastries and coffee and we had a marvellous time - sadly, the end of the tour came all too quickly. The quality and quantity of food and drink was perfect and nothing was too much trouble. A perfect day and highly recommended!

    Excellent tour as always from Culinary Backstreets! Sardines from the dock to the tin. Since it was sardine season, we were able to have a nice meal of gilled sardines. Tour was intimate, which made it nice. We highly recommend Culinary Backstreets for their in-depth and intimate tours!
