Porto

Ideal length of stay: 3–4 nights

Porto captivates visitors with its picturesque streets, Baroque architecture, Mediterranean charm, and the unique atmosphere of the Douro River. The historic old town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and invites visitors to stroll through its charming streets and discover its hidden treasures.

Highlights include the Cathedral, Clérigos Tower, and the city’s impressive churches and historic buildings. A boat cruise along the Douro River, offering views of the famous bridges and traditional Rabelo boats, is just as essential as a visit to the historic port wine cellars.

A ride on the traditional tram takes visitors to the mouth of the Douro River and the Atlantic coast. Around Galeria de Paris, Miguel Bombarda, and the Santa Catarina shopping street, visitors can enjoy cafés, art, shopping, and culinary delights and, of course, the famous port wine.
