Great introduction to Porto! - I can’t imagine a better way to explore Porto than on a food walking tour with Maria! Our group of 7 girlfriends from California qualified for a private tour and we had a memorable time acquainting ourselves with Porto on our first day through food and wine tastings and visits to sights and monuments along the way. Maria is a delight…fun, caring, knowledgeable…what a wonderful ambassador for Porto! She was super responsive in all of our communication before our trip, which I really appreciated. I was delighted to learn that she works with Violetta, who was our guide for a wonderful city and port house tour during a family visit to Porto five years ago that we still remember with fondness. Thank you, Maria and Violetta!
