EXCELLENT Based on 32 reviews Posted on Isa IsaJanuary 24, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Service impeccable 👌 merci 🙏Posted on Antonio jrJanuary 19, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Em 2025, o Fábio foi nosso guia durante nossa estadia no Porto e em cidades vizinhas. Sempre bem disposto, com bastante conhecimento dos lugares, sempre nos mantendo atento aos detalhes dos passeios, boas dicas e sugestões de restaurantes, lugares a visitar fora do comum, conversa muito boa e muito bom humor, o tempo passa mas a certeza da amizade e as boas experiências permanecem, como por exemplo, comer as castanhas assadas em Ponte de Lima ou "un exquisito pulpo" em Vigo. Quando voltar ao Porto, com certeza irei contatar o Fábio para conhecer novas cidades ao redor.Posted on melissa fernandezJanuary 19, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. No final de 2025, eu e minha família tivemos a alegria de conhecer o Fábio durante nossos dias no Porto e arredores. Com muita simpatia, histórias incríveis e um olhar atento aos detalhes, ele foi muito mais do que um guia, tornou-se um amigo. Vivemos passeios lindos pelas cidades próximas ao Porto, com experiências autênticas e momentos muito agradáveis, como saborear as tradicionais castanhas assadas. Fábio, obrigada por tornar essa experiência tão especial. Esperamos voltar em breve para novos passeios e recomendo o Fábio a todos que desejam conhecer o Porto de forma genuína e acolhedora.Posted on Colin DaviesJanuary 11, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service from Fabio bringing my family of 5 from Oporto to Galicia. Fabio speaks English and French and was charming and helpful.Posted on David BealeOctober 31, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent experience. On his day off came to rescue us as our first taxi stuck in traffic due to floods. The car was a large black luxury type. Truly, the best taxi experience I’ve had and I travel for work all the time.Posted on Ireas CookOctober 22, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fabio is an excellent driver and guide. We had the opportunity to use his service in Porto several times. Each and every time, he was careful, courteous, and, most importantly, punctual. His command of English was top-notched. Fabio planned his routes to the destinations well and when he was driving, missing our scheduled flights or appointments never came to mind. He was flexible in making additional stops, on an impromptu basis, according to our needs. He was knowledgeable about Portugal and introduced to us many interesting places, customs and foods. We recommend his service without hesitation; he serves his clients well.Posted on Gabriela SilvaOctober 9, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Experiência maravilhosa que tive com minha família. Fábio nos levou com tranquilidade, segurança e sua experiência como guia turístico fez do nosso passeio certamente ainda mais encantador. Sua gentileza é ímpar! Se preocupou com minha filha de 2 anos levando cadeirinha apropriada e tablet para dar mais tranquilidade a viagem.Posted on Jennifer PicheOctober 8, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We crossed paths with Fabio when we ordered an Uber ride to pick up groceries while staying in Villa Nova de Gaia. He helped with bringing the groceries up to the condo and we had our tour guide for the week! Fabio became our go to for anything we wanted to see and do while in Portugal and always had great recommendations on restaurants etc. We highly recommend Northexplorer for anyone looking to connect with Portugal, the incredible people and beautiful places you would like to discover! We hope to visit again soon, such a great experience 😊Posted on K HallOctober 6, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nothing better than knowing someone is there to help when you need it. Fabio was great with communication and made sure we were safely delivered from the airport to our apartment. Kind, generous and very good company after a long flight.Posted on Patricia Bruna StolfOctober 5, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. O passeio foi excelente! O Fábio foi super gentil e nos proporcionou experiências típicas portuguesas. Super indico e não vejo a hora de combinar o próximo passeio!
