About Porto Guides & Tours
If you've landed on this page, it's because you want to know who's behind Oporto Guías y Tours.
“We start our tours with strangers and end them with friends.”
The Story
Our colleagues Eric and Laura were already working with us in Amsterdam, but after the pandemic, they decided to move to Porto and start a new chapter in their lives in northern Portugal.
Open a Guías & Tours office in Porto? Why not?… When they mentioned it to us, we thought it was a great idea…
So, no sooner said than done, in 2023 we launched our new destination with a top-notch team in the Portuguese city on the banks of the Douro
The team "G&T"
“We love walking around the city with strangers. And ever since we launched Oporto, we love it even more.”
Eric (The Bear)
“I’m in love with my work, and I try to convey that love and passion on every tour I do”
Laura
“I am responsible for managing and coordinating the day-to-day operations of our services in Porto”
The proyect
No sooner said than done—after months of hard work, market research, searching for local partners, designing routes and itineraries, and training the new team—Eric and Laura launched Oporto Guías y Tours in early 2023. And since then, we haven’t stopped growing, offering daily tours for individuals and families as well as custom experiences for private groups, events, and companies.
The promise
We prioritize direct communication from the very beginning and strive to create experiences that meet the highest quality standards, always with a focus on responsible tourism.
We know that the memories of your trip are what matter most to you.
That’s why our mission is to offer you an unforgettable experience during your visit to Portugal. Laura, Eric, and the rest of the team share that same passion. And you can see it in the feedback we receive and your reviews, which encourage us to keep improving every day.
Porto Guides and Tours: well-told stories, charming neighborhoods, and a city where life moves at a leisurely pace.
It’s not us saying it—
they’re the ones telling you
