Nuno, an ex-architect, was fantastic even before the walk - answering all my queries with such alacrity and in such a helpful manner. This was why I chose this particular walk (the Highlights of Porto) over alternative companies offering similar walking tours. On the day, we found him to be both friendly and professional - and extremely knowledgeable. (For example, he had studied tiles for 12 years!). He gave my husband and I an excellent walk around Porto with all the main sights included whilst also surprising us with some places previously unknown to us. If you are looking for a Porto walking tour, you honestly need look no further. You will be delighted you chose Nuno!

I had a three-hour walking highlights tour led by Susana. We covered the oldest quarters of Porto and I learned a lot about the history, culture and customs of a city that dates back more than 3,000 years. She's pleasant, fun and very knowledgable. She also provided recommendations for activities and restaurants for the rest of my visit. I was traveling solo and although the reservation form mentions booking no fewer than two people, don't dismiss this opportunity if you're by yourself. Be My Guest can probably work with you to meet your goals.

This was a great walking tour of Porto. Our group was small, which allowed for lots of questions. Our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable of the history of Porto as well as Portagal in general. I would highly recommend.

Unfortunately the tour guid was a little late but the tour itself was OK. At times it felt she lost our attention and wasn’t picking up that we were keen to see particularly spots. But she was helpful in letting us know a few facts about Portugal.

My objective when booking a tour with Be My Guest in Porto was to learn more about the History and culture of Porto. Nuno carefully planned a customized tour that pleased me a lot. He is an authentic living encyclopedia! Don't miss the opportunity to learn more about portuguese History, culture, art and architecture. Oh, and from what I have heard, it seems that Nuno is also a great cooking teacher.
