I enjoyed a wonderful tour with Diogo on Thursday evening. I booked with Eating Europe again after their food tour on my recent visit to Rome was the highlight of my trip. The Porto progressive dinner tour was even better, and Ribas really made it special. As a solo traveller, I’m sometimes sceptical about going on group tours but our group was fantastic. We all enjoyed each other’s company so much that we stayed for drinks at the final stop late into the evening and will definitely stay in touch. I’d highly recommend booking this tour, it’s the best way to see so much of Porto, learn about the culture and enjoy hidden food and drink spots you wouldn’t have visited otherwise.
