About this experience
Come discover Amarante and let yourself be enveloped by the stories, traditions and flavors that the city has to offer you. Meet and let yourself be enveloped by this passionate filled history city. History that begins in the age of the stone, happening through the presence of the Roman Impero and enormously marked by the presence of S. Gonçalo and the French troops during the French invasions II. The city itself has a religious image, perhaps for its monumental convent of S. Gonçalo bathed by the bucolic Tâmega River or its majestic baroque churches and its beautiful and magnificent S. Gonçalo bridge. The discovery of great personalities such as Amadeu de Souza-Cardoso, Teixeira de Pascoaes or António do Lago Cerqueira is equally irrefutable. Discover Amarante with a local inhabitant who will not only be a guide but also a friend to present your house!

Our tour with Joao was...
Our tour with Joao was fun and informative. It was obvious that he knows the history of Amarante but he also sprinkled in fun and interesting tidbits. It was easy to get caught up with his enthusiasm for Amarante. Joao answered all of our questions including showing us how to get to places using a map app on his phone.

Great private tour!
We had an amazing tour with Joao! Although it rained pretty much all day, we were still able to visit 2 wineries of his choice, ate at a local restaurant in Amarante, and tasted some local pastries. Joao was very personable and easy to talk to. He is very knowledgeable of the area and the Vinho Verde region. You can customize your tour, as we did. Thank Joao for an unforgettable experience!

Guided tour of 10. Very professional. Joao you are an excellent guide
This Guided Vidita is worth it. It costs what it's worth and falls short. Joao loves and lives what explains his Amarante city and what surrounds it. He's a great pro. I would definitely recommend it. Make that Tour of Amarante and Enjoy.

Excellent local Amarante overview
Had a great two-hour tour Joao Pedro, who grew up in Amarante and knows it inside and out. Highly recommend this experience.

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Inside Amarante: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Porto.
How much does Inside Amarante cost?
+
Prices start at $15 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 Inside Amarante take?
+
Plan for about 1.7 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 Inside Amarante worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Porto, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Inside Amarante?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Inside Amarante suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Inside Amarante?
+
Around 4 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 1.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Inside Amarante 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.
