Traveler reviews
Amazing Segway experience
Amazing Tour!! Igor was super friendly and made sure we had a great time! Saw all the highlights of Porto and enjoyed being on a Segway!
Operator cancelled the tour
The tour was cancelled a day before, not even 24 hours in advance. Very disappointed. Considering we are on vacation with the limited number of days, it was not possible to rebook.
Great Segway tour . Cristobal is a great guide.
Cristobal is a great guide. Very knowledgeable.
Recommend
Cris was really informative - great tour! Would recommend, easy way to see the city!
Fun but prior experience w Segway may help
Thought this was fun way to see a lot of Porto in short period of time. We were prior Segway users which helped. First time doing it in city streets. Guide did great job in making us safe as possible. Can't say we got a lot of info on sites but that's not what we were looking for. There was no audio system between guide and guests while were riding.
