Speechless
Excellent from start to finish. The return time was kept to the minute. Compared with doing it yourself, it works out well. If you are in Porto, do not miss it.

Superou as expectativas
Foi o melhor dia da nossa viagem a Porto. Muito corretos com os horários. Conhecer um pouco de Bota Fumeiro no caminho foi um plus. O preço é honesto pelo que se recebe. Escreveram no dia anterior para confirmar o horário. Se estiverem em Porto, não percam.

Buena experiencia
Buena elección si es tu primera vez en Porto. Vale madrugar, el paisaje a esa hora es otra cosa. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable. Nos hubiera gustado saber antes que había que caminar bastante. Nada grave, pero vale saberlo antes de reservar.

Ideal para conocer la ciudad
Muy recomendable, sin vueltas. El detalle del visita Guiada sumó mucho. Si están por Montevideo, no se lo pierdan.

A wonderful experience
Delivered everything it promised and then some. The show started right on time. Great that Visit to Valença Fortress was included. I compared prices before booking and this was the best deal. There was some dead time in the middle that could be put to better use.

Melhor do que esperava
Reservamos de última hora e foi um acerto. O guia foi o ponto alto: sabia muito e respondeu todas as perguntas. Serviu para decidir onde voltar no resto da semana. Recomendaria a qualquer um que visite Porto.
