    Port Celler Visit

    Visited the Calem cellar. Very well organized. A very good guide and a good presentation. Massive port vats - one holding 17,000 bottles. MAtured from 3 - 100 years. Generous tasting.

    Response from the operator: Hi Peter Sorry, but you didn't this tour with us! We are Private Tours Porto and we don't work with Calem. Please, remove your review.

    Beginner tour guide

    The restaurant the guide took us to was amazing but we were supposed to visit two port cellars and it was supposed to be a 5 hour tour. We seemed to be rushed after the first cellar and never saw a second. We were shorted an hour.

    Response from the operator: In our tour we just visit one cellar, where have you saw two cellars? Pick-up at 12h00 and dropoff at 17h30! Is more than 5 Hours. Your comment is completly wrong! Directly was: Awesome! Glad that you liked the lunch.

    Braga and Guimarães Full Day Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Porto.

    How much does Braga and Guimarães Full Day Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $55 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Porto usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Braga and Guimarães Full Day Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Porto is not rushed.

    Is Braga and Guimarães Full Day Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Porto, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Braga and Guimarães Full Day Tour?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Braga and Guimarães Full Day Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Braga and Guimarães Full Day Tour?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Porto can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Porto and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Braga and Guimarães Full Day Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Porto within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Porto?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Porto experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Unvanquished Tour in Porto City Center, Porto's #1 Walking Tour, Small Group Geres National Park Full Day with picnic from Porto. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Porto?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Porto?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
