      fantastic way to see Porto!
      I did the "heart of porto" tour and it was a blast! Sergio was great company, super knowledgeable and adjusted the pace to suit my comfort level. The route is nice and varied and the souvenir video and additional background info I received afterward was also a really nice touch. Thoroughly recommend!

      Excellent guide and tour !
      The guide was on time, friendly, professional and very knowledgeable ! We had a tour of around 1h40 and 10 km. We stopped at different points for explanations of the monuments. Don't worry about the running speed, the guide takes care of your pace and there are frequent stops if you need to breath...

      Early bird run
      Early in the morning with no traffic when the city wakes up is a great way to explore the city on the one hand and train a little bit on the other hand. The guide (Sérgio) knows a lot about the city and its history, so besides beautiful places, you also get a story.

      A must do for runners!
      My partner and I joined a running tour in Porto with Sergio on January 2nd, 2019. We have had the previous days a bus tour and a boat tour. Nothing compares to the running tour provided by Porto Running Tour! We had not only a great workout in a fantastic scenery - the day was bright and the sun was shining, which helps a lot! - but we also could listen to amazing stories about Porto's architecture, street art and main landmarks, changes operated in the city along the years, historical characters and events happened in the city with connection to my country (I'm originally from Brazil), and so on. It's amazing how much you can get to know in only two hours of a high quality run! If you like jogging and want to know everything this amazing city has to offer, from classic landmarks to less well known, off the beaten track sites, do yourself a favor and book a running tour with them!

      Running + City Tour = AWESOME way to see the city!
      Sergio was AMAZING. We arrived in Europe from US on Sunday afternoon, and Monday morning got up to do the 10k running tour (we though it would be a great way to get over jet lag). It is hilly, so be prepared for that. I don't think we ran much more than 1-1.5k at any given point between stops. Definitely saw things that we wouldn't have known existed, and covered way more ground than we would have on our own. Sergio did a fantastic job of telling us hidden stories, history, and backgrounds we wouldn't have gotten in other ways. Saw some absolutely beautiful sights. If you are a runner (even casual runner, we weren't running at a 'race pace'), you owe yourself to experience this! The ladies in our group that didn't join were disappointed they missed out after they heard about it (and we ended up taking them back to a few of the sights after they begged us from hearing how cool they were!).

      Highly recommend the Street Art tour
      I saw so much of Porto on this run including some hidden street art! A great perspective on the city and a wonderful run! Informative and such a fun way to get my running in while travelling! I highly recommend this tour!

      The best way to learn the city!
      What an awesome time I had with Sergio! I did the 10K sunrise tour through Porto on my first morning in the city. Although I was unprepared for the city's hilliness (!!), the tour proved to be an awesome way to get oriented to the city while also getting some awesome historical and cultural knowledge about Porto. Being a personal tour, I could stop and ask more questions about certain things that interested me specifically. Sergio was great about adapting to my pace and had a near-encyclopedic knowledge of the city! And, to top it off, he followed up with a) pictures of me that he took throughout the tour and b) links to articles and videos about parts of the tour that were of particular interest to me. Bonus: I built up an appetite to enjoy Porto's amazing food for the rest of the day :) Thanks so much, Sergio!!

      Perfect way to see the city!
      We did the 15k first thing Saturday morning. Great way to get our bearings, see more of the city than we would explore ourselves, and get tips on things to do later (such as the best place for Portugese tarts!)

      Great tour
      We took the 10K tour through the highlights of Porto and it was awesome! We had a really nice guide who gave us lots of information about the bridges, blue tiles, street art, monuments, ... . After the run we got an e-mail with even more information :-) The run was somewhat challenging because of the many hills, but we were rewarded each and every time again with magnificent views. We loved every meter of this tour. Many thanks - OBRIGADO!

      Great way to see the city
      Our guide Pedro was pleasant and took us to a lot of interesting places around the city. A really good way to see the city in a short time. Communication with Sergio before and after the tour was smoth.

      Excellent run
      I would had never been able to start running at 7:00 AM through the town I don't know without Sergio of Porto Running Tours. . Sergio was quick to respond to my email, accommodate the run on a pretty short notice and conveniently meet in front of my apartment. He was a nice tour guide, showed me interesting parts of Porto, I wouldn't have otherwise seen, while telling me some nice historical stories and tales. In spite Porto's tiny sidewalks and hills, these were probably the easiest 10km I ever ran because it was fun. I am grateful for this experience.

    I had a wonderful running tour with Sergio early in the morning on a recent trip. Sergio was very friendly and had a lot of history to share with me along the way. He made sure we hit all of the top spots (and I mean top - get ready for some hills!) and the views were stunning. And, at the end, he sends you a video of your run. What a nice bonus. I can't recommend this tour more. One of the best I have taken!

    The sunrise run was awesome and Sergio was nice enough to get started 30 minutes early so we had very little traffic and noise. He was very informative with the history behind the sites we visited while still keeping a good running pace. His enthusiasm for the stories was infectious and made me interested to learn more about Porto's history. It was also nice to receive a brief video of our run. I'd highly recommend this as a way to see the city.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We get that 'mission accomplished' feel whenever a runner tells us we sparked her or his curiosity about any topic concerning the city :) Keep running strong, it was great meeting you!

    I am training for a half marathon and was worried when I realized that my (scheduled) longest training run coincided with my vacation to Portugal. Despite my best intentions, I am just not disciplined enough to run more than a few miles on my own while on vacation, which is where Porto Running Tours and Sergio came to the rescue. I found Porto Running Tours on TripAdvisor and reserved a 17 km custom running tour a couple of weeks before my trip. Sergio was accommodating (fulfilled my request for a flat route and to take a walking break on the one hilly section), friendly, and knowledgeable (I learned interesting facts about Porto’s buildings and Portugal’s history). Sergio has excellent English and is passionate about running and his running tours. Not only did I complete my long training run feeling strong (Sergio’s pacing helped), but I also had an opportunity to see a part of Porto that I would not have otherwise visited. This was my first running tour, but it will definitely not be my last.

    I am currently training for the NYC marathon and while traveling in Porto needed to maintain my training scheduled so I decided to do a 15 mile run with Porto Running tours. I am so happy that I did! I had a private tour with Sergio and we ran through old city, past the soccer stadium, to the park, and then along the ocean back by the Ribeira Square and bridges. I highly recommend this company to anyone who wants to explore the city of Porto! Sergio was wonderful to run alongside and I learned a lot about the history and culture of Porto! This definitely beats sitting on a tour bus!! If you are looking for an active way to explore Porto this tour is the one to do!

    Thanks so much for your preference! Miles go by much easier when we have a running partner, don't they? Buses and treadmills are not an option in Porto where there's so much to see outside :) Have fun at NYC marathon!

    We've only been in Portugal a couple of days but I already think this will be a highlight of our trip. Running is a brilliant way to see the city and Sergio was a great guide. We did the coffee and nata tour: as well as some great history of coffee in the city and visits to some beautiful old coffee house buildings, the tour packed in plenty of general history and sights too. If we were here for longer I think we'd book another tour! Highly recommend.

    We did the coffee&nata running tour with Sérgio and loved all of it! The tempo during runs is nice and high, and during the stops you get a chance to catch your breath and learn more about the city of Porto! We had 2 bigger stops for coffee, one of which included fresh pastel de nata. Our guide knew much about the different sites we passed and had many interesting facts on the way as well. We highly recommend this way of sightseeing
