Ricardo Dias is a very professional, intelligent and has a lot of knowledge and experience. He does the tour in an efficient way but also very friendly, funny manner. The day past so quickly that we could hardly believed it was a full day tour! We really enjoyed ourselves and we recommend to order this tour with him. Tank you so much for a lovely day.

Itinerary
Meet your guide in central Hotel Fénix ( Praça Marquês de Pombal 8 ) Lisbon and hop into an air-conditioned minibus for your guided day trip
Start your journey toward the town of Óbidos, where we will start with a guided tour accompanied by our expert local guide. Completely surrounded by ancient walls and preserving all its medieval charm, Óbidos is one of the most famous and visited places in Portugal, a must-see in the surroundings of Lisbon. The narrow cobbled streets that can be seen in Óbidos will immediately transport you to a medieval atmosphere. These streets are home to perfectly preserved old houses, historic buildings, important monuments and, dominating the historic center in the highest part of the village, the Castle of Óbidos, declared one of the 7 wonders of Portugal.
Transfer by bus from Óbidos to Nazaré
Continue the trip heading to possibly the most famous fishing town in Portugal, Nazaré, where you will have the opportunity to visit the Forte de Sao Miguel. This site has become world-famous for the giant wave that hits its coast every winter and attracts lots of surfers from all over the world.
Transfer by bus from Nazaré to Porto
Start a vibrant 2h walking tour, where you will admire the stunning Old Town on the picturesque Douro River, complete with six bridges, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Igreja do Carmo, Estação São Bento, Igreja São Francisco and Ponte Don Luis.
First you will have 1h to have a typical portuguese lunch on your own to recover some energy.
At the end of your tour, you will return to the center of Lisbon and your guide will recommend things to do during the rest of your stay.

Although I wasn’t able to make the tour because it was rescheduled, the new time conflicted with another tour I had already booked with your company. I’m happy to hear that I’ll be receiving a refund. I look forward to booking more tours with you in the future. Thank you for your understanding!
Greta trip, enjoyed my time . Damien our tour guide was very patient and was so knowledgeable. Enjoyed exploring the streets of Porto, with our walking tour ending with such a beautiful photo spot
We loved two of the three cities Porto and Azares Obido was cute I recommend seeing all especially Azares on the beach The bus was comfortable and the guide Damion was helpful and funny and kind and informative too
Had such a great day! To start, the pick-up/drop-off location is easy to get to and central. We traveled on a large bus that was super comfortable as well (however, no power outlets or wifi just an FYI). Obidos was much cuter than I had expected! Wasn’t on my list of places to visit but so happy I did. Nazare was a lovely stop, but unfortunately the day didn’t lend itself to big waves so there wasn’t too much to do there. Porto was beautiful. Wish we could be there longer, but understandably, time was limited. Saw enough to make me want to come back though! Damian, our guide, was super sweet and so helpful. Had a lot of great recommendations. It’s a long, long day, but well worth it, especially for the price.
Damian provided a great guide through Navarre, obidos, and Porto. Very knowledgable
Great experience. Worth the trip.
It was unfortunate but the tour was cancelled oast minute as the guide was not available but we stood there for almost one hour and no communication, when someone finally answered from the tour company- they said they already emailed Viator bur i never got an email from viator to i form us and then we were told there is bo way to still do the tour today as everything was sold out. We understand emergencies can happen but it is the lack of communication that is disappointing.
Ivan our tour guide & Mario our driver were terrific. Ivan is knowledgeable & professional and we had a wonderful day visiting Obidos, Nazare & Porto. We also opted in for the lunch & it was delicious!
We booked this tour last minute because it was the same price as a round trip train ticket to Porto so we decided it was a better idea to discover 3 cities (Óbidos, Nazare and Porto) instead of one. Francisco, the tour guide was very knowledgeable about history, fun facts, gastronomy and more. The bus was very comfortable and the driver very responsible.
This trip was exactly what we were looking for— round trip from Lisbon to Obidos, Nazare and Porto back to Lisbon. Not all the trips we saw brought you back to Lisbon. Our guide, Joaol, aka “Johnny” was a wealth of information. He gave us a lot of information about the history of Portugal and provided information about each site we stopped at. We were able to spend some time on our own at each stop to explore and/or shop. Bring euros because not all the shops or restaurants take credit cards. We opted for the upgrade with lunch. Joaol took us to a nice restaurant where we had authentic Portuguese food that was delicious and plentiful. Alex, our bus driver, was great. He got us to each destination safely. (NOt always an easy feat, as some of streets were not built for a big tour bus.) The bus was air conditioned and very comfortable and smooth. It has free WiFi and plugs to recharge our phones.
It was a great experience, Joao is an amazing tour guide. Kept us totally engrossed and made sure we don’t miss out on important sites.
Great day Ivan the Guide was brilliant would definitely do this trip again
My Tour Guide Ivan Was the best I enjoyed my tour, it was long but worth it. 3 cities in one day! You can’t tell me nothing.
Ivan was amazing! Great tour and must recommended.
The transportation bus was very comfortable and driver was excellent. Fransisco, our guide, was very knowledgeable and shared nice bits of Portuguese history along the way.
What a fun day. Our guide, Johnny, seemed to have this tour down to perfection. I learned so much about Portugese history and culture, in an enjoyable way. If you want to learn even more, or get local suggestions, Johnny made it very clear that he was there to give answers. The bus was very comfortable and lets you relax between stops. It is a busy day, but if you're like me and want to get the absolute most out of the day then this is for you.
Francisco was such a great guide. He was so knowledgeable and very good at keeping us on schedule and we were able to do everything we wanted. He recommended some great restaurants and we had a delicious meal of local specialties and of course some perfect Porto wine! This was so much better than taking the train from Lisbon and doing it on our own. We go to experience Óbidos and Nazaré as well as Porto. I highly recommend this tour.
We saw Obiodos, Navarre and Porto. A quick “cliff note tour” of each town. But it was plenty for us. We did do the lunch upgrade which was a very nice spread of classic Portuguese dishes.
It was a good opportunity to see three beautiful places at the same day. Be ready for long distances, walking and monitoring your time for photos and souvenirs. The guide was very good and informative, with sense of humor.
Francisco Maia is very funny and very responsible tour guide. He knows Porto’s history and hidden gems extremely well, bringing every story alive with passion. He patiently answered all our questions, gave great local tips for food and photo spots, and kept our group comfortable throughout. We loved his easy-going vibe. This Porto tour was absolutely wonderful thanks to him. We highly recommend booking him if you visit Porto!
Very knowledgeable and interesting tour guide. The transportation bus was very comfortable. I Highly recommend the tour.
Nice quick escape to porto and nazaré
Great tour. Got to see lots of different parts of Portugal in one trip. It is a busy day, but well planned. Francisco was an amazing guide.
Our guide Ricardo was a great guide. We had a great time. The trip was well organized and showed us three must sights.
Our guide Ricardo was AMAZING! Super knowledgeable and fun!
Awesome guide and experience!! We enjoyed seeing 2 cities on the way to Porto. We stayed in Porto rather than going back to Lisbon and they easily accommodated our luggage.
It’s a long day (12 hours) but the two villages were worth the time and seeing a brief overview of downtown Porto was good especially if you aren’t going to be able to spend a day or more in the City while in Portugal. The guide Jonny knows the history of Portugal forward and back and provided very interesting commentary the entire day. Driver Carlos was very good and did a great job.
I had an excellent time at all 3 cities. Our guide, Juao (Jonny) was engaging, funny, knowledgeable and open. I enjoyed the Porto walking tour in particular.
Johny our guide was very responsive and friendly.
Overall, the trip was great. The tour guide, Johnny, was very knowledgeable in everything he was explaining. He also brought positive energy throughout the tour!
Johnny the tour guide was great. Very informative and beautiful tour.
Ricardio Dias was our amazing tour guide! Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, but he also had an amazing voice. He truly made our experience unforgettable! Highly recommended!
Ricardo was an outstanding guide, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. His knowledge was remarkable. He shared rich, fascinating details about the history of all three cities, and he made every stop come alive with stories and context that we would never have picked up on our own. I enjoyed every minute of it. As a wonderful bonus, Ricardo also has a truly beautiful singing voice. On the ride back, we were treated to a song, and it was the perfect way to end the day. It's the kind of personal touch that turned a great tour into a memorable one. I would highly recommend him to anyone visiting the area.
Great all day trip with Ricardo,he has a lot of knowledge of each area including the history. I would have liked to get another 20 minutes online Obidos to shop, but we're on a time schedule. Porto was very interesting.
Ricardo was excellent! Very informative and patient. Great food recommendations and general knowledge. Also seeing two other cities on the way was a perfect day
Very long day, but also very beautiful. A great way to see several interesting and unique places in Portugal. Johnny was a great guide and we enjoyed his commentary on the bus and the tour of Porto.
Joao was a great guide. Long day but tosí worth it if you want to see Portugal and don't have much time. Wonderful trip. A must do!
The tour was ok. Honestly I’d just find my way to Obidios and spend half the day there. The guide seemed tired.
Excellent day trip from Lisbon. We visited three cities in one day. The guide (John) was very informative and efficient at keeping all guests to the itinerary and timings. He answered question and went above and beyond to ensure all guests were enjoying the day. We had a fabulous lunch which we opted into at a local restaurant in Porto - thoroughly enjoyable. The bus was very comfortable and the driver great. Would highly recommend.
João was an excellent guide,-knowledgeable, informative, and with a sense of humor! Although the trip lasted the entire day, i never felt tired because everything was so well organized and thoughtfully planned. João made the experience fun and enjoyable, sharing interesting information along with plenty of helpful tips and recommendations. His personality made the day even more memorable. Highly recommend!
Johnny was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable. He answered all of my questions and made the entire experience great.
Our tour went very smoothly thanks to Johnny, he explained everything with patience.
Beautiful cities, good foods
Johnny was a great guide very informative.
Tour guide was Johnny. Everything was on time. Guide was entertaining and informative. A very enjoyable experience.
Johnny was great, was super friendly and helped us a lot, was a great guide. Would love to have him again
Great trip of 3 fascinating cities of Portugal. Johnny Joao was awesome! Knowledgeable of the history. Passionate about showing us his county. Long day but great if time if limited, you should do this trip.
We had a wonderful experience on the Porto, Óbidos, and Nazaré tour! The trip was well organized, and each destination was beautiful and unique. Óbidos charmed us with its historic streets, while Nazaré offered stunning coastal views. The journey was enjoyable, informative, and full of memorable moments. Ricardo was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the tour. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the beauty and culture of Portugal! I suggest to decrease the time in Nazare and add it to Porto ‘s time to explore more on their own time prior to the local guide. Another small suggestion would be to include a short stop along the way for a restroom break, especially during the longer drives( Nazare to Porto) . Thank you.
The trip was beautiful and guide was well informed. Our guide was Ricardo Dias. I had a great day in Obidos, Nazare, and Porto. Highly recommend this tour
