My children ages 9 to 16 really enjoyed the history and learning about the Stairs of Truth and seeing the old alleyways. Our guide was able to personalize it to keep my children interested with her unique and fun facts of Porto.

Leonora is a very friendly, knowledgeable guide. We walked from the cathedral, through the old town down to the river. Leonora kept us entertained as well as informing us of the social history of Porto. An excellent guide and great walk. Highly recommend this trip.

Ottima esperienza con Eleonor, il tour in italiano si è rivelato molto più interessante del previsto. Eleonor ci ha guidato per Porto mostrandoci curiosità e fornendoci consigli insuperabili su dove mangiare e che altro vedere, ottimo

Il breve tour di 50 minuti si è trasformato in un giro di più di due ore dove Eleonor ha dimostrato di essere una guida eccellente. Con attenzione, pazienza, simpatia e professionalità ha mostrato una parte di Porto ricca di affascinanti notizie. Si è resa disponibile anche per una visita guidata al palacio della bolsa, imperdibile, 5 stelle senza dubbi
Una fantastica esperienza con Leonor, simpaticissima guida locale che oltre a parlare benissimo l'italiano sa farti divertire con le storie di Porto e dei portoghesi. Assolutamente da provare.
