This food tour exceeded my wildest expectations, I am always nervous as a booker of such activities when in a group, the worry that it will disappoint or not meet everyone's expectations is significant but this tour was an absolute triumph!!
- Our guide Filipe was knowledgeable, funny and managed our rather excitable group of ladies with ease
- The tour was well thought out and a great variety of things to sample, each location was only a short walk from the next, manageable for even those who may be less agile and accompanied by Filipe telling us about the different sites and history as we passed though Porto.
- The food was outstanding and the amount we got was so unexpected. Every location we were met with a warm welcome and a generous portion of great examples of local cuisine to try while Filipe told us all the details and stories connected to each one as well as answering our many questions
- Drinks were plentiful, we thought we would get a few samples to try but we were most definitely well lubricated by the end of the tour, again much kudos to Filipe for managing our merry gaggle of ladies :D
- One of our group was pescatarian, this was communicated on booking and well catered for, she was very pleased
- Communication prior to the tour was easy and clear, we had a slight issue finding the start point, the app gave us a location to navigate too but I don't think it was correct however Filipe quickly found us and whisked us of to our first stop for the best Pastel de Nata we had our entire trip (and we tried A LOT of them!!)
- Post tour Filipe promised to send recommendations for a few things to do and an amazing restaurant for our final dinner and he did not let us down, even helping out with a few further info requests we had later in our stay
All in all I would highly recommend this tour, both the organisation, the locations and of course Filipe for making it such a special experience!
