I was born in the Alto Alentejo region of Portugal, a place known for its authenticity, traditions, and strong connection to the land. More than 20 years ago, I moved to Porto, where I built both my personal and professional life, developing a deep connection with Northern Portugal and the Douro Valley.

Based in Porto, I offer private guided experiences designed for travelers seeking an authentic and personalized way to explore the region. From the vibrant streets of Porto to the breathtaking landscapes of the Douro Valley, each experience is thoughtfully tailored to your interests, pace, and expectations.

Discover Porto's historic center, including Ribeira, Clérigos Tower, and São Bento Railway Station, or explore beyond the city with curated experiences in the Douro Valley, Guimarães, and Braga. Each experience combines local insight, storytelling, and attention to detail, creating a seamless and memorable journey.

Whether you are looking for a private tour in Porto or a Douro Valley wine experience, my goal is to offer a genuine connection with each place you visit — always with comfort, flexibility, and a personal approach.

I collaborate with international travel agencies and DMCs, delivering trusted private guiding services and in-depth local expertise in Porto and the Douro Valley.

As a member of the SNATTI and fully licensed under RNAVT, I operate in full compliance with Portuguese tourism regulations, ensuring professionalism, safety, and high-quality service at all times.

Additional services in other regions of Portugal are available upon request.
