Traveler reviews
Outstanding and knowledgeable guide
Ricardo, the guide, was outstanding. He is a grad student and has an amazing amount of knowledge on the history. This walking tour exceeded my expectations for the things we saw. I was the only guest so i had a private tour!
Porto lesser known
Interesting facts and a great pace. Rafael did a great job! We enjoyed seeing the lesser-known parts of Porto.
Very good tour of Porto’s Jewish history
Raquela was knowledgeable and friendly. She told us basically what there is to know about the Porto Jewish community’s past , much of which has been lost to history. She had some interesting stories to share and a few points of interest. We had a very interesting and enjoyable morning!
Intimate experience of Jewish Porto
Our guide Rafaela was fabulous. I was skeptical when I booked , as this topic is very precise. Rafaela was knowledgeable, respectful and very patient. We were only a total of four and this made our tour very special and unique . Thank you very much.
Fascinating tour
This is a great tour. Ricardo is extremely knowledgeable and very informative over what is a of course a profoundly depressing story of intolerance and persecution .
