Porto · PRIVATE DRIVERS
Good private car days fill up ahead of the date and the great ones go first. Below: the 11 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Book a private Getting Travel vehicle between Porto Airport and your hotel, apartment, or port. Expect a roughly 25-minute ride within 20 kilometers, a driver meeting you by Cervejaria Porto, flight tracking, free airport waiting time, WiFi, and child seats on request.
“Our driver was courteous and patient. He met or exceeded our expectations in every way. We would definitely use this service again”
Travel privately between Porto Airport and your city hotel in a standard or executive vehicle. Drivers such as Ricardo, Tiago, Manuel, and Nuno provide meet-and-greet service, luggage help, English support, and useful Porto tips. Choose one-way or round-trip service for up to eight people.
“The driver was there on time. He was waiting for us with our name on a card. Very easy to find. He was very personable and professional. Gave us very good information and descriptions about the place.”
Arrive at Porto Airport and meet an English-speaking Living Tours driver by the arrivals exit, holding your booking name. Ride privately to a Porto or Vila Nova de Gaia hotel in about 25 to 45 minutes. Drivers such as Filip, Fabio, and Leonardo may also offer local food and sightseeing tips.
“Perfect airport transfer . Leonardo was great and extremely helpful. Gave me a list of recommendations to do while we visited Porto and they were amazing for my trip”
Turn a Porto-to-Lisbon transfer into a full day of sightseeing. Your private English, Portuguese, Spanish, or French-speaking driver can stop at up to four places, including Aveiro, Coimbra, Nazaré, Fátima, and Óbidos. Expect a comfortable vehicle, hotel pickup, local food tips, and a flexible route.
“Our driver, David had a difficult day due to the bush fires. We felt confident with him at all times. He was in constant contact with other drivers and the authorities to make sure the roads we were on were safe. We still managed to make 2 of our stops and enjoyed an unscheduled lunch. Highly recommend this tour from Porto to Lisbon.”
Spend 9.5 hours exploring the Douro Valley with a private driver-guide, including a traditional Rabelo boat ride, boutique winery tasting, Port education at a quinta, and lunch in Régua. Jose may guide the day, bringing wine expertise, an easygoing style, and plenty of useful local insight.
“Fantastic experience! Would recommend to anyone! What a great way to experience the Duoro Valley. Would do again!”
Travel privately from Porto or Gaia to Lisbon in an air-conditioned, Wi-Fi-equipped vehicle with an English-speaking driver such as Luís or Jonathan. Choose a direct 2.5-hour ride, or add sightseeing stops at places like Nazaré, Óbidos, Coimbra, and Fátima for an extra fee.
“The prompt service and safety and friendliness of the driver. We also learned more about the countryside.”
Book a private, one-way ride from your Porto hotel or apartment to Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport. An English-speaking driver collects you about three hours before departure, helps with luggage, and drives the roughly 15 kilometers in an air-conditioned car or van. Extra luggage and child seats cost more.
“There was no direct access to our lodging from the street so we were a little worried about missing the 6:15 am pickup. It was easy communicating our concern with the office. Paul (not sure if that's correct spelling) picked us ip early, was very professional, courteous as hellful with our big luggages,”
Join Henrique of SupbuddyPT for a three-hour SUP trip from Porto to the Paiva River. You’ll learn board basics, practice safe falls and turns, paddle past Ilha dos Amores, spot a small waterfall, and receive hotel transfers and photos.
“If you're on the hunt for a fantastically fun time filled with paddleboarding, breathtaking scenery, and all-around good vibes, LOOK NO FURTHER. Seriously, why can't I give more than 5 stars? It's just not fair! Henrique was an absolute delight—charming, helpful, and hilarious! I had a bit of a water phobia, but Henrique was my rock throughout, and I even managed to take a refreshing swim. Transportation? No worries at all! Henrique had that covered too, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free. 🚗👌😄 The learning curve was surprisingly gentle for a beginner like me. Plus, our conversation was effortlessly cool and engaging. And if you're seeking recommendations for exploring…”
Arrive in Porto to a driver holding your name at baggage claim, then ride in a private, air-conditioned vehicle straight to your central hotel.
