The guide we had (Sofia) was wonderful knowledgeable on the history and culture of Porto. Towards the end of the tour she gave us some good tips on how to get get around, and what we should see next.

Mayinka was an incredible guide and provided us with a wonderful tour of Porto! She was very responsive prior to the tour to make sure it was customized to our preferences and she was very accomodating as we traveled with a baby. Mayinka was thoughtful in making the tour comfortable for us both as foreigners who are not accustomed to the steep hills of Porto, and as a family traveling with both a senior and a baby. She was knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommend Mayinka for future tours!

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.
