What makes this tour special

There is so much to discover in Porto and locals and seasoned visitors would agree that there are 3 things you shouldn’t leave Porto without seeing: the enchanting UNESCO recognised city centre, the dramatic backdrop of the Douro River, and the historic Port Wine cellars, where Porto’s finest export has been carefully produced for centuries. Our jam-packed half-day tour itinerary combines these 3 pillars of Porto with a Tuk Tuk city tour, followed by a visit to a traditional winery for a tasting, then an exhilarating river cruise, ensuring you get an immersive experience of what makes the city so unique and special.

On your half-day Porto tuk tuk experience, you will:


Experience the very best of Porto on this immersive half-day private tour that blends city highlights, iconic riverscapes, and a deep dive into the city’s legendary Port wine heritage. Your adventure begins in the heart of the city with a guided ride through Porto’s UNESCO-listed historic centre in a comfortable electric Tuk Tuk. With a knowledgeable local guide at your side, the flexible route adapts to your interests. Whether you’d like to admire the intricate tilework of São Bento Station, the Baroque splendour of Clérigos Tower, or the grandeur of Avenida dos Aliados, Porto’s main thoroughfare, your guide can make it happen. 

You could also trace the city’s long history at Porto Cathedral, keep your eyes peeled for an intriguing architectural detail between the Carmo and Carmelitas churches, or seek out the mythical Livraria Lello, Porto’s renowned bookshop that some believe inspired JK Rowling’s descriptions of Hogwarts, Harry Potter’s magical high school. It is also worth making the time to glide through the lively Ribeira district and its lesser-known neighbour Miragaia. These two captivating riverside quarters will give you a feel for Porto’s resilient spirit, owing to its nickname “Cidade Invicta” (The Unvanquished City), as well as its deep-rooted maritime identity.

Your journey continues across the river in Vila Nova de Gaia with a guided visit to one of the most prestigious Port wine houses. Here, you’ll explore the atmospheric cellars where this iconic wine has aged for generations, and enjoy a curated tasting of different Port styles that showcase the depth and complexity of the region’s winemaking. To round out the experience, you’ll step aboard a traditional Rabelo boat for a scenic cruise along the Douro River. As you float beneath Porto’s six iconic bridges, you’ll gain a new perspective on the city’s dramatic architecture and layered history while you breathe in the fresh Atlantic Ocean air. 

The order of the tasting and the cruise may vary depending on the season, but rest assured that every element of this tour is designed to give you a vibrant and memorable introduction to Porto.
