Took the hop-on hop-off bus with my mom and honestly, it's the EASIEST way to get around Porto without getting lost. We sat up top, caught some sun, and the audio guide actually made us laugh a couple times (love those random facts about the bridges!). Port tasting at the end = chef's kiss. FYI, the buses get pretty packed around midday so I'd start early if you can.

Good way to see the sights if ur only in Porto for a few days. We hopped on near Clerigos Tower & the bus was like, half full. Got to the port wine tasting (which was included, nice!) by late afternoon. Staff were super chill, but the walking tour felt a bit rushed. Still, def worth it for the views from the top deck.

The tour and especially the boat trip were well worth it. It was just a shame that the bus simply stopped somewhere because the driver was on a break, but there was no replacement for the time being. Not so great when the return flight is getting closer and closer and the ... is pressing.

    The commentary during the bus ride was minimalist, with a great deal of lag, and not enough for a city as full of history as PORTO. The guided tours were in English and Spanish. Nowhere was this mentioned. So we abandoned the walking tours. If we said modest, maybe we weren't demanding enough.

    Buses are nice and you do get an overall view of the city. However there is so much congestion you do not easily go from the red line to the blue line. Also it was not clear exactly where to catch the bus. Other cities you truly get the experience of hop on hop off.

    Did this with my girlfriend and we just loved sitting up top, soaking in the sun and watching the city go by. The port tasting was a nice way to finish. Highly recommend for couples.

    Took the hop-on tour with my dad. We both liked the flexibility—no stress if you wanna stay longer at one spot. Port tasting was the highlight for him, lol. Would defs recommend to anyone new to Porto.
