Description

Do you want to discover the wonderful views, flavors, and sensations of Porto?

After a few years working with other guides in the beautiful city of Porto to provide my unique point of view.

So, why not join me on an afternoon tour to find out why, more than 14 years ago, I chose to call this beautiful city home? With over 10 years of experience in guiding through this majestic city's picturesque streets, I strive to give a well-rounded introduction to my adopted home.

In an independent venture, meaning no hard-sells, I hope to give a broad and inclusive selection of recommendations for the rest of your time in Porto. So, whether you're a football fan, art lover, or military buff, I'll be looking out for you. Whether you're vegan, coeliac, Jain, or just want to try a specific local delicacy, I hope to have your back!

This tour is perfect for groups, couples, backpackers, and families - don't worry, I've seen it all before!

The Irish are famous for their storytelling and affable nature. Why not join in and go on a tour with an Irish guy in Porto?!

A great start to our first day in Porto

Very useful to start out holiday with this tour. History, culture, recommendations and an informative tour.

knowledgeable and structured guide

The tour guide was really knowledgeable and gave structured information. He also referred to situations in other countries to explain facts. He took care of the wishes and needs of the participants. Pretty well done!

Funny Irish Guide with amazing knowledge

Super knowledgeable guide with a funny Irish wit and sense of humor. Took lots of questions from our group and showed us some awesome spots in Porto. In depth knowledge of the political history of Porto and Portugal too. Great for us history nerds. Relatable to the group (Brits, Australians and Irish).

Great tour with the Irish Guy

Caoi is a great tour guide! He definitely knows the city very well and gave us lots of good advice on where to grab the best Portuguese food and what to avoid. His knowledge of Porto is really in-depth, so you learn a lot about the city and its history. I also enjoyed the off-topic conversations while walking to the different places - they expand your knowledge beyond the borders of Porto for sure. With his great sense of humor and enthusiasm while talking about Portugal, Caoi is absolutely the right choice as a guide whenever you visit. Thanks again for showing us around. Cheers!

4 Scots on tour

Caoi have the 4 of us a fantastic and informative tour of the City. Excelent key highlights, cultural, historical and political history. O always thought you'd need to be local born and raised to deliver such a tour. It's not the case. Great job Caoi. Thanks
