Highlight of Our Trip to Porto - Mayumi earned a solid 10 for her terrific tour. We spent 3 hours touring Porto and experienced most of the classic highlights the city offers. Would highly recommend the tour With Locals and selecting Mayumi was a home run. Go for it!

Wonderful trip - Our driver and guide, John, was wonderful and a great source of knowledge. He met us in Lisbon and drove us to Porto via Fátima. He even had restaurant recommendations!

Perfect Day - We had a fantastic time with Carlos! Our group of 8 truly appreciated Carlos’ easygoing nature. He introduced us to Porto’s history and culture and architecture, and even sprinkled in some unique tidbits of street art and Harry Potter trivia! He answered all our questions, gave lots of recommendations and treated us to a sweet snack! It was a pleasure spending time with him.

A perfect intro to Porto - We had a wonderful morning exploring Porto with Orlando. He was knowledgeable and very keen on showing us all the highlights with interesting stories and history woven throughout. One member of our group needed to take it more slowly on the hilly terrain and Orlando was so accommodating—stopping whenever she felt winded and giving us options to modify the tour. We absolutely loved our time with Orlando and highly recommend him.

Great historical tour - André is a fantastic guide--very knowledgeable and friendly, with a wealth of information about the city. My one regret is that I didn't pay closer attention to the website when booking because one of the reasons I chose With Locals was the advertised option to go on a tour that highlighted "hidden gems" and a local experience. André's profile noted his love of music and I was hoping the tour would revolve around that interest at least in part, but I now realize I should have hit the "customize this experience" button when booking. My mistake, but if that's what you're hoping for as well, be sure to request in advance.

Do NOT BOOK! The guide Victor was a NO SHOW! - DO NOT BOOK! THE GUIDE NEVER SHOWED UP! To add insult, he didn’t pick up his contact phone number to say if he was coming or not. It was busy for over an hour. The tour operator did not answer the phone, as well. We wasted our day in Porto trying to reach them.

Use a free local guide instead - Should be zero. Very disappointed. Our tour was cancelled 2.hours before departure. They did not offer an alternate guide. Question the validity of this type of tour through tripadvisor. Fortunately we were able to find a FREE local guide who provided a great experience.
