Just book it. This is the most fun tour I’ve done on 3 continents over a decade. Guides were fantastic. Bikes were a blast. City is etched in my heart. Love you Porto, Gaia, Charlie, Peter, and John (and Milton too).

The most fun way to see a city! I had the best time on my sidecar. My driver was delightful. He showed me sights and important points of interest that I hadn't siren on my own. I know exactly where J want to go today because of my tour yesterday.

Amazing tour! We had so much fun visiting all of the sights around Porto. Our guide tailored our tour to what was most important to us. We had just arrived in the city, so he showed us all of the major places and told us where to further explore the other days on our trip. I would highly recommend this tour.

A fun way to see the city! Pacio was our guide on our sidecar journey. He told us about Porto and took us to see Gaia. He made a fabulous recommendation to Restaurante Vapor and showed us the beautiful oceanside as well as the river. We had so much fun exploring on our sidecar trip. Also the last tip he recommended - was the Portuguese ice cream at Cremosi - 😋 Yum!

Experiencia inesquecível, no Sidecar do João Marques Tive o prazer de fazer um passeio histórico pelo Porto num sidecar e dos vários tours que tenho feito, este foi sem dúvida um dos que mais me cativou e que guardarei na memória. É uma forma muito divertida e diferente de conhecer a cidade, permitindo uma proximidade e interação fantástica com as pessoas e com a cidade. O guia e anfitrião, João Marques, foi de um profissionalismo exemplar. Além de simpático, demonstrou um grande conhecimento sobre a história do Porto e das suas gentes. Uma excelente experiência que recomendo vivamente a quem visita o Porto. Paulo Cunha / Panamar

En SIDECAR, Oporto es un sueño Oporto una ciudad hermosa, pero hacerlo en Sidecar es un verdadero espectáculo, João y Paixao dos anfitriones de primera, este paseo de tres horas superaron por mucho nuestra expectativas, nos llevaron por los principales puntos de interés de la ciudad y con una amabilidad que hicieron que todo pareciera un sueño. RECOMENDADO 100%

A novel and engaging way to see Porto. Our tour guide, Pacio, was very knowledgable, very pleasant and good craic (as we say in Ireland). Very safe in case anyone had any doubts. Would highly recommend.

João's sidecar tours are fantastic and well worth the money! Whether you've never been on a motorbike or are an avid rider, sidecars are a totally unique experience. João is also a brilliant guide and shows you parts of the city you're unlikely to find if exploring by yourself. Our 3 hour tour included a day's worth of sightseeing but always felt fun and relaxing. I'd do this again and again and again!

Simply put, João is the Man!  The Not Port! Wine Tour was the highlight of me and my wife's 5-year wedding anniversary in Porto which is saying something because it poured the entirety of the tour (see pic). Despite the rain, the experience was unforgettable as we saw the sights and visited some really cool off-the-beaten path bars/other cool spots. We got a glimpse into what the life of a local can be and needless to say, I wish our trip was longer and we could relive that kind of day over and over again. Cannot recommend enough making time on one of João's sidecars on your next trip to Porto.

A Must-Do Sidecar Tour Experience in Porto By far, the highlight of our Porto experience was our tour with Sidecar Tours. My mother and I were taken around the city in style by the fantastic Oscar. It was such a treat to ride through side streets and hidden paths while learning about Porto’s history and seeing countless beautiful sights. We had an amazing time and truly can’t say enough good things about this experience.

Fabulous Tour of Beautiful Porto by Motorcycle + Sidecar — Don’t Miss This Unique Experience! I can honestly say this was some of the best money spent on our Porto vacation! Our guide, João, met us at our hotel ready for a 3-hour guided adventure. He arrived with a stunning new Ural motorcycle and sidecar in classic olive drab paint — such a stylish way to see the city! Helmets were provided, and before setting off we chatted about our interests and the sights we hoped to explore.From the moment we left the hotel, we felt like the envy of everyone we passed. The ride was smooth, the pace perfect — never rushed — and João’s knowledge of Porto was truly stellar. We cruised through charming side streets, visited historic churches, and stopped at cozy cafés, soaking up the city’s beauty and hospitality.João kept us entertained the entire time with his fun banter and fascinating local insights. His humor, warmth, and genuine love for Porto made this experience unforgettable. Thank you, João, for sharing your city and giving us such wonderful memories — this was truly a highlight of our trip!
