    What travelers think of our experiences in Europe

    Mayinka was amazing to spend the day with in Porto! Right after we booked, she reached out to make sure the whole itinerary was tailored to what we were actually interested in seeing. She's easy going, very likable and, as we'd hope, highly knowledgeable in the history and culture of the city. You can tell she cares about Porto and wants to share what she knows. Our experience definitely was not just a standard tour - Mayinka gives it to you straight, celebrating a very historic city without sugar coating it. Without her, we would have taken days to learn as much. Plus she's just fun to be around and really down to earth. We'll never forget how Mayinka gave us a greater appreciation of Porto.

    Mayinka was a great guide - on time and met us at the hotel. She loves to explore around and found us some really cool out of the way places for tiles and history. Funny and engaging she set up some great photos of us in key places. Loved the boat ride to Macau at the World of Discoveries museum.

    Mayinka was a fantastic guide. We were only able to do the tour Sunday, when many of the normal stops were closed. She found some great alternatives that we would never have found on our own. We felt like we got an authentic taste of Porto. Highly recommend booking her!
