We had booked a private food tour starting at 330pm. As part of the booking process, we had a Zoom call to go over what we wanted to accomplish, and what types of food/wine items we wanted to taste and avoid. Our guide was Ricardo Leite, who we met at the north side of the food market. The tour exceeded our expectations. The food items were excellent, and pre-arranged with the various locations. ((For many places, Ricardo would call ahead so that they would be ready shortly after our arrival.). In addition to the great food, he showed or pointed out a number of the historic sites along the way, and gave us excellent suggestions as to places to visit, including restaurants. We highly recommend this food tour.

We did the downtown & bolhao market tour with Miguel and it was absolutely amazing. The guide was chatty and very friendly, the food and wine pairings were generous and very tasty and he even took us on a tour around Porto with lots of background knowledge. Already recommended it to friends. Would do again

This was a wonderful tour! Piadro (Peter) was a fantastic guide. I love that the tour was very small, six of us plus the guide. This made for an intimate experience. The places we went to were off the beaten path, we never would have found them on our own. The owners of each establishment were welcoming and friendly. And, certainly, the beer and food were delicious! Thank you helping us enjoy Porto!

Our culinary adventure with Taste Porto began at the entrance of the Mercearia do Bolhão, where we met our guide, André. Shortly after our introduction, we were whisked away to a private tasting room, surrounded by wine bottles and hidden behind a fine meat purveyor. In this unique setting, André would dash out to one of the many stalls within the market and bring back fresh items, allowing us to experience the flavors right from their source.
This was not your typical group food tour; it was a private tour that offered a more intimate and tailored culinary experience. If you don't care for group tours and can pay a bit more, it's totally worth the price for the exclusivity and personalized attention from one of their experienced guides. Throughout the tour, we walked through the market and were warmly greeted by all the purveyors, thanks to André’s introductions, enhancing our connection to the local food community.
From there, André proved to be an exceptionally knowledgeable and charming guide, taking us through the heart of Porto's gastronomic scene. Each stop brought its own unique flavors and stories, making this multi-hour journey not just a tour, but a deep dive into the local culture and cuisine.
We started with some exquisite charcuterie featuring **Salpicão de porco preto** and **Chouriço de porco preto**, where the depth of flavor achieved from the black pig's marination and smoking process was simply unmatched. Not to forget the **Linguiça de porco preto**, whose hints of garlic and paprika perfectly complemented the robust **MOB Alfrocheiro** red wine from Dão.
Our taste buds were further delighted at Gazela with the iconic **Cachorrinho**, a Porto-style hot dog that is a must-try for anyone visiting the city. The simplicity yet perfection of this dish left us eager for more.
Next, we indulged in some heavenly pastries at Confeitaria Moura. The **Seminarista** and **Limonete** were standout treats, blending textures and flavors that dance delightfully on the palate.
Our adventure continued at Fábrica de Cedofeita, where the **Bifana** sandwich, paired with a refreshing **Tropical IPA** and a crisp **Douro** white wine, provided a satisfying savory balance to our sweet indulgences.
Lastly, Popina introduced us to the rustic and hearty **Alheira** and **Favas com chouriço**, accompanied by the excellent **Pombal do Vesúvio** red wine, rounding off our tour on a high note.
This tour with André and Taste Porto was not just a meal; it was a comprehensive, enriching experience that showcased the best of Porto’s rich culinary heritage. I cannot recommend it enough to anyone looking to explore the true flavors of this beautiful city.
