    What travelers think of our experiences in Europe

    Mayinka was fabulous with working with our needs as we were traveling with a 5monthold child who need to eat, be changed and stay out of the sun.

    We had an amazing Porto food tour with Mayinka this week. We were with 2 young kids and she did a great job catering her tour and info for all of us. I loved the flexibility of the tour which allowed the kids to try different things they were interested without being limited to certain spots/ foods. We did this on arrival day and covered so much ground! I’m a travel advisor and will definitely be recommending this to my clients as well.

    Had a great introduction to Porto on our private walking tour with Antonio. He grew up in the area, so could share personal insights on how Porto has evolved over the years. He’s also a genuinely personable individual, who is passionate about the city. We covered a lot of ground and learned a lot in our 3 hours together. He also left us with great suggestions for further exploration on our own.

    We went on a three hour walking tour with Mayinka and it was amazing! Despite it being a Sunday when many things are closed, we never felt like we missed anything and she made sure to point out other places for us to check out. It was our first time in Porto and we’ll definitely be back! Would recommend booking with Mayinka if you want a fun, personable and really lovely day.

    We loved our tour with Mayinka! She was so wonderful and our three hour tour flew by. Despite it being a Sunday and many places being closed, it never felt like we missed out on anything and she made sure to point out areas to check out later. She also managed to show us so much of the city in a short amount of time and it never felt rushed or like we were fighting other tourists for a good view. 10/10 would recommend booking with Mayinka when you’re in Porto!

    Mayinka was our Tour Guide for this personalized tour and she was fantastic. She took us to some of her favorite restaurants and we got to have some traditional Portuguese specialties! We were able to order off the menus and pick what we wanted to try rather than a standardized food tour. She also gave us historical information on the buildings and we toured the market while enjoying some wine. We are so happy we did this tour with Mayinka. It was the highlight of our time in Porto.
