Porto is the northern capital of Portugal with a long history, where sea trade, wine-making traditions and architectural layers of different eras are closely intertwined. The city beckons with its atmosphere of narrow streets lined with azulejo, terraces above the Douro River and views of the valley vineyards. Porto retains a vivid connection with the past: the spirit of seafarers, merchants and artisans is felt here, while the city is full of modern energy and gastronomic discoveries.
Porto’s man-made attractions impress with variety: from the grandiose bridges – Ponte de Dona Maria Pia and the famous bridge of Louis I – to the historic Cathedral and the Episcopal Palace near the old town. The focus of tourists is also the Crystal Palace Park with panoramic views, the Serra do Pilar monastery, the picturesque promenade of Cais da Ribeira and the Square of Liberty. The modern look is complemented by the Dragao Stadium and museums, and the old port warehouses remind of the important gastronomic role of the city.
The natural corners around Porto are no less attractive: the Duero River divides the city and opens the way to the famous Duero Valley with terraced vineyards, wineries and picturesque panoramas. The embankment of the Douro River and coastal areas give walks by the water, and in the vicinity you can visit beaches, coastal cities like Aveiro with its canals and Costa Nova, as well as historical Guimarais and other natural and cultural gems of the region.
On our website, all these places are conveniently collected on an interactive map: you can see the sights of the Porto, read brief descriptions and reviews, mark points of interest and build an optimal route. The map allows you to make walking and road routes, choose points on the subject and plan the time to inspect each location - convenient for an independent trip and for preparing for excursions.
You can explore the city independently and with local guides: independent walks along the streets of Ribeira, hikes on observation decks and tasting port wine at warehouses will give a feeling of freedom and discovery. If you want to understand the history and get interesting facts, you should book a tour with experienced guides - they will offer themed routes, tell about the hidden details of architecture and organize wine tastings and walks in the Douro Valley.
Come to Porto and discover the combination of historic chic and wildlife, bridges and wine terraces, markets and quiet gardens. Let each walk around the city be a small adventure: plan routes, find your favorite corners and come back for new discoveries - Porto is always ready to give an impression.
