Our luxury Porto experience begins along the Atlantic coast at Matosinhos Beach and the mouth of the Douro River, where ocean views set the tone for the day. We then enjoy a scenic drive upriver toward Porto’s historic center, stopping at the iconic Clérigos Tower. We visit Livraria Lello, considered one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world and an inspiration for J.K. Rowling, followed by time at the lively Bolhão Market and a stroll along Santa Catarina Street, Porto’s main shopping avenue. The tour continues to São Bento Train Station, famous for its magnificent azulejo tiles depicting Portugal’s history, and then across the iconic Dom Luís I Bridge, offering stunning views over the Douro River. We conclude in Vila Nova de Gaia with a curated visit to the renowned Port wine cellars, uncovering the traditions behind the world-famous Port wine.
Porto is one of the most beautiful European cities. We will start our visit with a panoramic view of the seafront at the beach in Matosinhos, travelling along the coast until we reach the “Foz”, the mouth of the Douro River, passing through the old medieval city district of Miragaia and arriving at the Clérigos Tower.
