Things to do in Porto

We enjoyed tour with variety of qine testing. Tour guide, Thomas explained history of Porto and economy and industry of Porto. It was insightful. Also a driver Carlos drives very gentle and make the long journey comfortable. Food was good and only thing I would like to mention about a quality of coffee. I didn't drink coffee after a bit of test the coffee and noticed other partisans didn't finish the coffee. Overall a good experience and worth to join the tour.

Loved this tour, it was informative and Ricardo was a great host as were the ladies at the venues. Would recommend this

This popular bookstore requires reservations. It was very well-managed, and entry was incredibly smooth. As it's said to be the inspiration for Harry Potter, the scenery was truly magnificent, and I found myself completely captivated.

This was the first cathedral I saw in Portugal, and it was absolutely wonderful! It rained in the morning, so it was a bit cloudy initially, which made the view a little disappointing. However, after a while, the weather cleared up and it was cool, making the observatory tower view truly spectacular, haha. The bell sounds were also magnificent, and when I entered around 10:30 AM in late August, there was a moderate crowd, which was nice :) For reference, the cathedral is located uphill, so I recommend taking a tram or bus to São Bento Station and then walking up, haha.

cheaper than get it on the spot with discount code. is a different way to spend time at a church. I would recommend people to go

a great sightseeing trip, the view is beautiful, a not-to-be-missed event in Porto

Everyone was so kind and welcoming, and we really enjoyed the sweet wine and cozy atmosphere. Two men played instruments and one woman sang, and the audience even joined in, making the hour fly by! They also encouraged us to take as many photos as we liked.

It was really a cool experience. I don't know if it was clearly communicated. The church is free to enter. You only need ticket for the museums/exibitions and the tower. The collection for musuems and exibitions is pretty extensive, I'd suggest to give it at least 1 hour (they close at 6pm during my time of visit). The stairs to the top is not as bad as I expected. Amazing view from the top! You can see the Cathedral and the Douro river and so many other landmarks!

The Douro River offers various types of tours. If you're short on time and on a budget, you can opt for this one-hour cruise. The boat does not provide explanations of the sights (bridges), so it's not considered a guided tour. For the meeting point, we followed the link to the second floor of the riverside shopping area, but it turned out to be the boat company's counter with the umbrella by the river. The scenery was beautiful and did not disappoint; it's still one of the activities you should plan when visiting Porto.
