35 year old Dubliner who has called Porto home for the best part of 14 years. While studying Spanish and Portuguese in University, I chose Porto as my year abroad and instantly fell in love with the city. I have been working as a tour guide for nearly 10 years with a strong passion for history, politics and food, which I hope to convey on my tours. I also love football but I try to avoid too much of that on my tours!
Very entertaining, informative tour, I highly recommend.
My husband and I really enjoyed our free walking tour with Caoimhín. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Portugal and Porto, and he shared tons of practical recommendations on what to see, where to eat, and how to spend your time well. What really set him apart was his “value lens” — he didn’t just list attractions, he was honest about what’s truly worth it (and what you can skip), which is so rare in a tour guide. If you want a guide who’s engaging, thoughtful, and genuinely helpful—not salesy—book with Caoimhín. Highly recommend.
Caoimhín was an amazing tour guide! Very entertaining, knowledgeable, and full of energy. I was the only one booked for this tour and he was still more than happy to do it, even with it just being me. I would definitely recommend Caoimhín and his tour!
Best way to visit the city!
Wonderful introduction to Porto, very friendly and accommodating local guide who's happy to share good tips and recommendations. It was rainy and we were the only two people signed up for the tour, but Caoimhín was kind enough to give us a private tour and make it work with the weather!
