Porto Food Tour with Craft Beer by Taste Porto (since 2013)
Description
Porto is more than just that heavenly nectar we call port wine; it's a city fueled by a profound passion for beer. Join us on our Portuguese Craft Beer & Food Tour and allow us to quench both your thirst and hunger as we stroll through the charming streets of Porto. Rest assured, this tour is far from a pub crawl! Indulge in 7 beer tastings paired with a selection of Porto’s favorite foods, including the world-famous francesinha, as you explore the city’s four hottest craft beer spots with exclusive brewery access. Step behind the scenes and uncover sacred brewing techniques passed down through generations, with exclusive access to a working brewery and the city’s first craft beer bar, the second of its kind in Portugal. After more than a decade in business, we’re honored to be recognized as Porto’s top Food Tour by Lonely Planet, The Guardian, and The New York Times. Join us and let’s taste the real Porto together!
Tour Options
Itinerary
Meaning “secrecy” in Portuguese, is a hidden craft beer bar where you will discover a classic local bar pairing: beer and tremoços.
We bet you weren't expecting to visit the fresh produce market on a craft beer tour, but this is the beating heart of the city and a great place to try local craft beer in Porto.
Grab a glass of their home-brewed beer and settle in to enjoy the welcoming atmosphere of this craft brewpub, while tasting the iconic Francesinha, Porto’s most beloved sandwich, often jokingly called “a heart attack on a plate.”
No tour is complete without a visit to the craft pioneers of the city. Join us at the very first craft beer bar & shop in Porto and enjoy a flight of 2 Portuguese craft beers.

Rita was fantastic and we had such a good time! We learned and ate a lot of good food.
This was an excellent tour that covered food, wine, beer and more with some really interesting history thrown in. It was very authentic and local and delicious! I expanded my horizons a bit, and that's what it's all about. There's a LOT of eating on this tour, but it's off set by a lot of walking also. Some within the group found it a challenge to keep up a few times, but the guides kept close watch over us and kept everybody together. Our guides were also very knowledgeable and talked a bit about the stories behind what we were eating and why it's important, unique, or just really good. We booked the tour on our first day in Porto and it was a fun way to get our bearings in the city. We returned to a couple of spots later in the trip.
This foodtour was amazing! Our guide Kevin told us a lot of interesting and funny stories about the food, the wine, Porto and Portugal. The food was excellent and so much!! The wine was very good and we learned a lot about the different regions. On top of that we got lots of recommendations for the rest of our trip.definitely take this trip when you’re in Porto.
Angelo was a fabulous guide! Thank you for an amazing experience and introducing us to the special tastes of Porto!
Lovely tour, food, and guide.
Dear Jet260658, You are 5 stars in our book too! Should Porto be on your radar again, please know we would love the opportunity to host you once more. Until next time! Até à próxima!
The tour was really diverse; we didn't try the classic things that you already know in Porto, but rather local specialties that don't stand out at first glance. Our guide Miguel was great; he made the tour very entertaining and enjoyable and was always available for any questions.
Dear F7629NMjulias, Thank you so much for taking the time to write about your experience with us and for acknowledging Miguel's wonderful work. We are the founding fathers of food tours in Porto, but to us, it is way more than just food. We really want people to feel like they are walking through the city with a friend sharing stories and exchanging culture. It just so happens that that friend also knows "a little something" about architecture and history too, and the food just ties everything together in a yummy bow! We think this is the best way for you to have a taste of the real Porto and we're thrilled and honored that you decided to taste it with us! Should Porto be on your radar again, please know we would love the opportunity to host you once more. Until next time! Até à próxima!
This tour is a must do if you’re a craft beer lover! Porto is a great city for wine and I was surprised to learn it’s a great beer city also! And there was plenty of food (and really good too!) on the tour (more than I expected!). Plan to skip dinner as you will be stuffed! Andre was really fantastic, we had a blast with him. Great fun and probably the most fun beer tour we’ve ever been on. Also the venues were full of surprises (hidden beer garden you’d never know exists, beer made with grape mash, lots of history, great beer, and more!). Words can’t describe how much I would recommend this tour! The tour included approximately 7-8 8 ounce pours with lots of variety. Thank you Andre for a great time and some great memories!
Dear grossepontedbeachbum, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us and for recognizing André's wonderful work. Our Craft Beer & Food Tour is both for the zythophile AND for the I-don't-think-I-like-craft-beer person. On one hand, we try to include as many different kinds of brews as we can, so you can use and expand your knowledge, while truly getting your money's worth. On the other hand, if you don't know that much about beer but are willing to try something new, we are more than happy to share our knowledge with you in a fun, relaxed and non-snobbish kind of way. Should Porto be on your radar again, please know we would love the opportunity to host you once more. Until next time! Até à próxima!
Unbelievable guide. Wonderful food, great company. Never had a guide this friendly and knowledgeable.
Dear trptooter, Thank you for taking the time to review your experience with us. You're five stars in our book too and, dare I say it, delicious as well! Do come back. We'll have more laughs! Until next time - até à próxima!
