Hi, I’m Gonçalo Castanho, co-founder of Cooltour Oporto.
We design immersive, small-group experiences in Porto and Northern Portugal, rooted in local culture, genuine human connections, and a strong commitment to sustainability. Our goal has always been simple: help travelers experience Portugal in a more authentic, meaningful way.
Today, through our evolving platform, we curate high-quality experiences across the entire country, collaborating with independent local operators who share our values. Every experience is carefully selected to support local communities, respect the environment, and showcase the real Portugal beyond the obvious highlights.
From food and wine to nature-based and eco-friendly experiences, we connect curious travelers with Portugal as it truly is: responsibly, thoughtfully, and with lasting impact.
