Rediscover flavors and places from the past, now with a modern twist, as we guide you through memory lane in Porto, sharing our collective memories as locals. This tour serves as a crash course in the city's culinary evolution, providing insights into Porto's food traditions and the exciting revival of its cuisine.
Our Vintage & Port Wine Food Tour is loved by first-time visitors to Porto, as it not only takes you off the beaten path but also hits several highlights of the city, including plenty of must-sees for a first-time visit. It is the perfect experience for families, friends, couples, adventurous foodies or solo travelers who want to encounter Porto like a local.
During this Port Wine Tour, you will taste traditional Portuguese dishes, regional wines, local pastries, and, of course, Port wines. The last tasting location is very special as we host a mini Port wine masterclass in a beautiful private room, where we reveal the secrets of this amazing beverage and highlight smaller-scale producers that truly are different from the big brands (and there’s real value in getting to know them). You'll get to taste the three main styles and leave with the knowledge to enjoy Port like a true expert.
In total, you will experience a well-balanced gastronomic tour of 12 food tastings (a perfect balance of sweet and savory) and 7 different beverages (including 6 wines from Portugal's many undiscovered regions).
Expect to see not only places & food, but also meet and be welcomed by local families in their small, authentic restaurants, cafes and bars. Your Port Food Tour will be hosted by a passionate Porto native that will help you travel back in time and experience how Porto’s past is influencing its future in terms of local cuisine as well as its architecture and culture.
We've poured our heart and soul into crafting a 5-star Port Food Tour. Secure your spot today and let's see if you agree with us.
