Ramon has been an exceptional guide
Getting a taste of both the history and the architecture was a real treat. We loved the stories that brought the history to life. My personal favorite was the two Pedro’s I and lV who were one.
Hello Roxanne! We appreciate your comment a lot, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review! We hope to see you again in the future. Best Regards.
Great walking tour with Arthur, Arthur had lots of knowledge to pass on, and it was great to learn about the Porto history.
- Thank you for trusting us, we loved having you on our tour. We hope to welcome you on one of our tours again in the future. Best regards.
We did a first tour with Oso and we loved it so much that we decided to make all the tours that they offer, we prefer the morning tour to have a fresh look of the city and avoid the bussinest of the afternoon. Learn a bit more about the history of Porto and the country, take the best pictures and have some fun, after the tour we still have the whole day to enjoy the city and surroundings, eat and drink Porto's food and wine .... Super recommended even for people who live there or who already know the city.
Last week I was on holiday with some friends in Portugal and in Porto we thought to do a tour that went great the guide was super friendly and explained everything in a very original way and these explanations that are usually tedious were most enjoyable, of course I repeat and of course I recommend it
