In the glass · TUK-TUKS
Every trip has one free afternoon too few. These 5 tuk-tuks tours justify the slot, priced and timed so you can decide in minutes and get back to the fun part.
Start beside Porto’s old city walls with a 50-minute electric tuk-tuk ride through Aliados, Santa Catarina, and Batalha. Your ticket also covers a 55-minute six-bridges cruise and a Porto winery visit with two Port tastings. Guides may speak English, French, Spanish, or Portuguese.
“Great day of tuk tuk river cruise and port tasting”
Spend 3.5 hours touring Porto in a private tuk-tuk with a Portuguese, English, or Spanish-speaking guide. See Clérigos Tower, Lello Bookshop, the Douro bridges, Gaia, and Serra do Pilar, with short walks and a glass of port wine at the final viewpoint.
“Excellent way to see a bit of Porto as the city is quite hilly. Our guide/driver Anna was wonderful, lots of information & very personable. Stopped at 6 or more sites where we could have a short stroll around. Highly recommend especially if you’re not as fit as you’d like to be.”
Spend two hours with a private multilingual driver-guide such as Roberto, Fabio, or Stefano, riding from your central Rome hotel to the Colosseum, Baths of Caracalla, Pyramid of Cestius, Orange Trees Garden, and Janiculum Hill. Enjoy Prosecco at Fontana dell’Acqua Paola.
“Excellent tour with Caesar. We went to some great places that we would have never seen on a typical ‘tourist’ tour. Local knowledge cannot be beaten and my wife took note of many local restaurants and other notable places. Pick up at hotel and drop off wherever you wish. Met people on the Vespa tour (part of the same family business) at a few locations we visited and everyone was enjoying themselves. Highly recommended and will do again!”

“We had an amazing tour, even with an earlier rain shower. He picked us up in an antique Fiat and I’m certain we ended up in many people’s vacation photos. I even left my rain jacket in the car and they returned to me the day after. They were very accommodating, you will not be disappointed.”
