Sergio was everything you wish for in a guide. Full of knowledge about Portugal's history, the tour was made partially walking and on a top mercedes car, wasn't expecting that! It was a great start as it allowed to see the highlights and picturesque spots of Porto for us to return on the next day. Loved the train trip to Douro, magnificent tiles of the train station so beautiful. Food was very tasty across the meals that were included and thank you Pedro for your restaurant suggestion in Peso Regua, top notch!Show more
