And I'm curious, was that done so that you can be broader when you need to be and scoop up more? Or are there individual products that make each one of those alive?
14:56
Definitely trying to get more people to get to know Porto through our levels and through our standard.
15:02
We research heavily before starting any tour or any product if you want.

I'm an addict to learning about Porto.

So for instance, a food tour before I started, it has at least six months of research to to set it up to try and understand if the sequence of places and food tastings and wine tastings that we're going to go through has enough background information to turn that into really relevant so to increase the emotional links that someone will create with those items But I also believe that a city as old as Porto is with so much history behind it, it would be a shame not to target and present it up front and center.

And so we started going into our private experiences and bring along the Jewish Heritage Tour and the Porto Beginners guy.
15:55
Then the cooking classes because I love cooking.
