Porto is one of the oldest cities in Portugal and the one that gave name to our country (and the famous wine). Located on the banks of the Douro River, its historical area was proclaimed a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996. Porto became an economic power during the Age of Discoveries, between the XV and the XVII centuries. Prince Henry the Navigator, the father of the Discoveries, was born here and the city became one of the largest shipyards of Portugal. In the early XVIII century, the Douro Valley was established as a famous wine region and it played a important role in the development of the city. Hi Porto Walking Tours will take you around this charming city and show you the historical facts that changed the history of Portugal, the incredible architecture with its impressive buildings and monuments, the local culture, traditions and of course, the delicious food typical from the North of Portugal and you’ll find out why Porto is known as one of the Best European Destination.

Our guide Monica was absolutely wonderful! She asked us what we wanted to see, we simply said show us what we should see and she added some of her favorite little stops along the way. We really enjoyed it!
Thank you for the lovely review Greg. We're glad you enjoyed the tour with Monica so much. Best regards from Hi Porto Walking Tours Team!

We really loved our tour of Porto with Jorge. He is incredibly cultured, passionate, friendly, and above all very funny! He knows his city like the back of his hand and he knows how to tell its story wonderfully well. The tour is very lively, punctuated by numerous anecdotes, historical facts, and little stories that make each place even more interesting. You really don't see the time passing! During our stay, we ran into many other guided tours all over Porto. And every time, my partner and I looked at each other and said: "Honestly, we were really lucky to have Jorge!" 😄 He was clearly the most lively, passionate, and interesting guide we met. You can tell he deeply loves Porto and that he takes real pleasure in sharing his passion and helping people discover his city. A huge thank you to Jorge for this great time, his energy, his humor, and all his anecdotes! If you are looking for a guide in Porto, do not hesitate at all: choose Jorge!
Thank you for the lovely review. We're glad you enjoyed the tour with Jorge so much. Best regards from Hi Porto Walking Tours Team!

We got an excellent overview of Porto which is what we wanted. Vini was very knowledgeable and flexible. He was able to change some of sites based on things we had already seen and the questions we were asking. There were four of us on the tour.
Thank you very much for the kind review. We're glad you enjoyed the tour with Vini so much. Best regards from Hi Porto Walking Tours Team!
Monica is an amazing guide and provides excellent history and cultural information and insights. She asks for your special interests and we visited some beautiful areas and shops and she helped us identify authentic and family owned shops. She was very fun for my grandson and we really enjoyed visiting her cat friends.

Our 3 hour walking tour with Santiago of Porto was brilliant. His knowledge of the history and recommendations of places to go in Porto was amazing. We would recommend this tour.
Thank you very much for the kind review Fiona. We're glad you enjoyed the tour with Santiago so much. Best regards from Hi Porto Walking Tours Team!
We had a tour with Felipe in May 2026. Above being super kind and funny, this guide was also demonstrating a deep knowledge of the history of the city and Portugal in general. It’s literally a passionate art history/human history seminar under the sun in one of the most beautiful city I ever set foot in. We booked via Free Tour - you leave the amount you feel like to the guide at the end of the tour (10-20 euros). Totally worth it and I couldn’t recommend enough. This guy brought me back to my art history classes I took in the past, and his passion made me want to learn new things again. As a musician from Montreal who tried several times to live from his craft but failed, Felipe’s passion greatly resonated with me. Thanks!
