This was a rough one, it’s a long day, and due to car issues we started late. We hit all the promised sights but the late start made it challenging to get a meal in during what turned out to be a 13 hour day due to the delayed start.
Good points - our guide, Joao, was knowledgeable and very enjoyable to spend the day with. We enjoyed a great port tasting in Gaia, and had a nice tour of Porto.
Rough spots: the tour company did not initially respond to messages when our guide did not arrive at the appointed time. I had to call to learn of the vehicle issues and the resulting hour delay. The delayed departure made it difficult to fit in a meal during the day. Aveiro is ok, but should not compare itself in any way to Venice. The canal boat tour was underwhelming..

Nice day trip
A nice day trip from Lisbon to Porto and back. Perfect for getting a small taste of the city and the mainland landscape along the route.
It’s a long drive but with a couple of stops on the way we didn’t mind at all. It helped that our driver, Francisco, was an excellent one, smooth and very professional. He was kind and obliging and did everything in his power to make the trip a fine experience.
We asked for a couple more hours in Porto so that we could have lunch there, and it was arranged by the travel agency at a reasonable cost.
A great tour for those on a tight schedule who want to visit Porto but can’t stay the night.

We had a great time in Porto, Gaia, & Aveiro! Nuno did an excellent job! He took to the best spots and gave us great advice. This is a very good way to know a few small cities in Portugal that are wonderful

Family trip
Very pleasant trip. We did a Lisbon-Porto return trip. Nuno is always very competent behind the wheel and attentive. We traveled in a group of eight people and were extremely happy and satisfied with our choice. So much so that we booked three tours with him. The experience in Aveiro and Porto were unforgettable. We highly recommend this service.
