João is an amazing host. A few weeks before we checked in he sent an email with details of the local area and some recommendations of wineries. He met us at the apartment on time. He had even turned up early to heat the apartment up for us. When we arrived he gave us a tour of the apartment and gave us a map of Porto talking us through the local area and highlighting key places to visit. Everything that is within a 15 minute walk and even the wineries on the other side of the river are only a 25 minute walk. However, make sure if you’re visiting Porto that you check what the average rainfall is for the month as we went in January and it was constant heavy rain. If we come back to Porto then we would definitely stay with João again.
