Activity description

Get ready to discover the history and culture of Porto's best monuments, its historic center, and the modern sites of this beloved city.

Our guided tour will take you to one of the country's most important monuments: Porto Cathedral. Located in the highest part of the city, its construction began in the 12th century. Porto Cathedral is considered a National Monument for its religious, architectural, and historical significance.

Next, we'll head to the Clérigos Tower, a remarkable architectural complex considered Porto's flagship. Designed by Nicolau Nasoni, the Clérigos Tower is one of the city's most impressive monuments. From its summit, you'll enjoy a privileged view of Porto.

Near this impressive tower is the famous Livraria Lello (entrance not included), one of the most beautiful and oldest bookstores in the world, known for inspiring writer JK Rolling to create the Harry Potter book series.

It's time to visit one of Europe's most iconic train stations, São Bento Station, famous for its thousands of tiles, mostly depicting Portuguese historical themes. This place may be one of the highlights of the tour—this train station looks like a veritable tile museum!

Take the opportunity to visit a winery and learn all about the centuries-old winemaking process that underlies this world-famous wine. A Port wine tasting is included, the perfect opportunity to savor some of the best.

It's time to enjoy a traditional lunch (not included) in one of the city's most popular neighborhoods, Ribeira, with stunning views of the Douro River.

After lunch, experience a different perspective of this beautiful city aboard the traditional Six Bridges river cruise on the calm waters of the Douro. A 50-minute cruise with panoramic views that allows you to explore all the bridges connecting Porto to Gaia. Stunning views!

The story never ends on this tour. There are modern areas you've never discovered, but which you're about to explore in panoramic mode: Boavista and Foz do Douro. Enjoy a sightseeing tour of Boavista, passing by the Casa da Música, a true icon of new architecture and the city's main concert hall. Then, be amazed by Porto's sexiest Art Deco building, while overlooking the beautiful Serralves Foundation Park.

Want to explore the city's most chic and exclusive area? This is the perfect opportunity to visit Foz do Douro, with stunning villas overlooking the sea. Get close to the sea and the Castelo do Queijo.

Take some time to enjoy the views or stroll along the boardwalk.
