6h Private Classic Tuk-Tuk Tour: Discover Porto

About this experience

Travel through Porto the way it deserves to be seen aboard a classic-style tuk-tuk that adds a touch of vintage charm to a full 6-hour private tour.
It's not just about covering more of the city; it's about doing it in style, with a vehicle that turns heads as you glide through cobbled streets, past centuries-old landmarks and along the Douro riverside.
This extended classic tour gives you time to slow down, soak in Porto's atmosphere, and enjoy a more characterful ride than a standard tuk-tuk: perfect for travelers who want their sightseeing to feel like part of the experience, not just a way to get around.

Viewpoint with panoramic views of Porto and Gaia

Cais de Gaia is a tourist area of terraces, restaurants and bars located on the left bank of the River Douro in Vila Nova de Gaia, opposite the historic centre of Porto, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Portugal.

We often stop for lunch at restaurants in the surrounding area, but it is up to the client to choose another place for lunch. Douro Marina is located in the parish of Afurada, in the municipality of Vila Nova de Gaia. It consists of a marina with capacity for around 300 berths for small boats, based on a new concept of marina, combining sport, leisure, tourism and nature, with a range of services and activities, not only for travellers in transit, but also for the inhabitants of the surrounding area and visitors in general, who come to enjoy a beautiful, modern facility on the River Douro, just as it is about to reach its mouth in the Atlantic Ocean.

Rua de Santa Catarina is a street in the parishes of Santo Ildefonso and Bonfim in the city of Porto, Portugal. It is the most commercial thoroughfare in downtown Porto, and a large part of it is now closed to car traffic and reserved for pedestrians only.

The chapel has its origins in an old wooden chapel built in honour of Santa Catarina. The construction of the building that exists today dates back to the end of the 18th century, when the Brotherhood of the Souls and Wounds of St Francis moved from the Monastery of Santa Clara to the Chapel of St Catherine.

Since 1866, the square has been dominated by the monument to King Pedro V, designed by Teixeira Lopes. The square is also home to the São João National Theatre and the Cine-Teatro Batalha.

The Igreja da Trindade is a church in the city of Porto in Portugal, located in Praça da Trindade behind the Porto Town Hall. It was built throughout the 19th century to a design by architect Carlos Amarante.

The Bolhão Market is a jewel of Porto: the building, one of the most emblematic in the city, is a municipal heritage site and a monument of public interest and preserves the memories and stories of the great fresh market, which pulses in the heart of the city, the people of Porto and those who visit it. Its character is unique and valuable and its identity and history have been intertwined with the identity and history of the city of Porto for over a hundred years.

Carmelitas Church is a place that tells a curious story about Porto - it started to be built in the 17th century

This church was built on land next to the Carmelite Church on the west side, which was given to the Order in 1752. As it wasn't allowed to build two churches together at the time, the so-called Hidden House was built between them, which you'll find out more about on our tour

The Miradouro da Vitória is located right in the heart of the old Jewish quarter. The history of this Jewish neighbourhood tells us that in the 14th century, King João I demarcated an area where all the Jews had to live, with high walls and access gates - it was like a city within the city of Porto. This period lasted around 100 years, until the arrival of the Inquisition

The Passeio das Virtues garden is the perfect place to end the day with a fabulous sunset over the River Douro. Lying on the grass or enjoying a beer on the terrace is the ideal spot for those who like to relax
