Overview

In this tour by the Rivera of the Douro, we will show you how Porto and Portugal became, thanks to its explorers, a naval and colonial empire, how its isolated location at the end of Europe with only two borders (Spain and the Atlantic Ocean) will force it to seek fortune beyond the known world, revolutionizing from then on, trade, navigation and naval engineering among other great feats.

Although Portugal conquered and discovered with its ships and explorers beyond the seas, it conquered the palates with sardines and codfish, all washed down with wine, not only port wine but also vinho verde. In our tours there is always a place for gastronomy, man does not live by history alone. And if we talk about wine, we talk about Gaia, its neighbouring city from where you can better contemplate Oporto.

Our tour goes through walls, emblematic areas, viewpoints, bridges, stories, a thousand stories, sad and happy, heroic and cowardly, admirable and despicable.

Fernandine Walls of Porto (Pass by)
When you visit Porto, a city with a wonderful old town declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, one of the essential things to see is the wall that surrounds the old city of Portus Cale.
Palacio da Bolsa (Pass by)
The Porto Stock Exchange was the first in Portugal and one of the must-see buildings in the city.
Ponte de Dom Luis I (Pass by)
On the shores of Oporto, we will still talk of bridges and French invasions, of queens, kings, and princes, of legends and stories, of heroes and cowards.
Edificio da Reitoria da Universidade do Porto (Pass by)
This typical bourgeois house with sunny characteristics faces west and offers wide views over the Douro River.
Church of Saint Francis (Pass by)
The Church of São Francisco is one of Porto’s most prominent monuments, along with the Cathedral and the Clérigos Church.
Casa do Infante (Pass by)
Casa do Infante, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is located in the historic centre of the city of Porto, which is why we recommend that you include this historic monument as a must-see if you have the opportunity to travel to the Portuguese city of Porto.
Igreja de Sao Francisco (Pass by)
One of the things that defines the history and character of the Portuguese people is their faith and on our tour, we will see and talk about the church of San Francisco, probably one of the most beautiful churches in Portugal.

Miragaia, is one of the tourist areas of Porto. It is located near the Ribeira, and also adjoins the river, but in ancient times it was outside the wall, being an area of sailors and merchants passing through.
