Saker att göra i Portugal

Köpte Lissabon stadskort för 48 timmar och löste in det vid "fråga mig"-disken på Lissabons internationella flygplats vid ankomst. Bekvämt och prisvärt om du besöker minst 2 museer som är gratis med kortet per dag. Granskade onlineguiden för att planera besöken till attraktionerna. Vissa attraktioner var stängda, t.ex. Jerónimos-klostret var stängt på grund av en strejk. Belém-tornet var stängt för renovering.

The Jerónimos Monastery is one of Lisbon's iconic attractions. Upon entering, I was immediately awestruck by the architecture. The Manueline cloister courtyard, with its Age of Discovery theme, showcases natural elements in every corner of the building. To be honest, I don't fully understand all the architectural details, but I do know that its beauty is truly breathtaking and makes you genuinely exclaim in wonder.

Denna tur är perfekt om du har ont om tid och vill se några av de populära attraktionerna. 10/10 skulle rekommendera denna tur! Det blir definitivt en lång dag och man klämmer in mycket på 8 timmar, men det är värt det. Se bara till att du har snacks, vatten och bra promenadskor eftersom du går MYCKET. Älskade att vi fick lite tid att utforska på egen hand också. Emilio, reseguiden, var fantastisk. Han är full av energi och personlighet! Han är hysteriskt rolig och höll oss underhållna och i tid. Bussföraren var underbar eftersom han lyckades navigera på de mycket smala vägarna 😂

very beautiful and scenic place. there is alot of walking to do but it is worth it. alot of people there also, be prepared to queue for your turn.

Quite unexpectedly, this turned out to be my favourite experience during my three days in Porto. The tour duration was just right, and the audio guide was clear and well-structured in the selected language, although the app did experience a few minor technical issues along the way. The weather was perfect, which made everything even more enjoyable, and the tasting itself was simply delightful. The setting is truly breathtaking: a vibrant, almost surreal garden with roaming animals (including two impressive roosters and even a peacock) overlooking the iconic Dom Luís I Bridge and the Douro River. The service was warm, attentive and knowledgeable, offering insightful explanations of each wine presented. The vintage Port wine, in particular, was a wonderful surprise, sweet, smooth and incredibly enjoyable. As an Italian, if I had the choice, I would happily have my aperitivo here and nowhere else in Porto. Highly recommended!

Vi hade den bästa rundturen i Pena Palace och Quinta de Regalaria + Sintras stadskärna. Jag måste säga att vår guide "J-Lo" var pricken över i:et på denna otroliga upplevelse. Han var så rolig och gjorde det väldigt enkelt att navigera. Detta var den perfekta tiden att spendera i Sintra.

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.

I entered the church expecting just a light show, but instead found myself in a dialogue about "time." The stone walls, originally cold and heavy, carrying centuries of prayers and history, began to flow as the projections lit up, as if life was breathing within them. The light patterns, like neural networks, stretched across the arches and climbed the pillars, resembling cracks in time and the texture of memories. The most striking aspect wasn't the dazzling colors, but the moments when darkness and light alternated. When the space was almost entirely covered by grey-white lines, with only the altar faintly gleaming gold, I suddenly understood what "awe" felt like. It wasn't the oppression brought by religion itself, but the feeling of human insignificance in the face of vast history and the universe. Technology didn't destroy the sacred; instead, it seemed to add a new language to it, allowing the ancient architecture to be reinterpreted. Looking up, I felt as if I stood on the axis of time. Above me was flowing light, below was silent stone, and at their intersection was my present self. This light show made me ponder how humanity, across different generations, always seeks faith in various ways. In the past, it was frescoes and sculptures; now, it's projections and lasers. But the essence remains unchanged—we still long to be illuminated by light. Leaving the church, I wasn't eager to take more photos; instead, I let that quiet feeling linger in my heart. Perhaps the true impact wasn't how magnificent the visuals were, but how it made me pause briefly and re-evaluate my connection to the world.

Jag bokade via Klook-plattformen samma morgon som båtturen, för avgången klockan 14:30. Jag var på plats 20 minuter före avgång för att köa, och efter ombordstigning var det fri sittning. Efter att båten avgått fick jag njuta av Douroflodens vackra landskap och utsikten runt Dom Luís I-bron, vilket var helt fantastiskt.

The doors opened exactly 10 minutes ago. We sat down with a glass of wine, and then a video played, followed by two guitarists. A woman and a man each sang a song, and then they sang together at the end. Videos played intermittently, which was a nice touch. The man, in particular, sings very well! We really enjoyed the show! ^^

Lätt att boka på Klook och ännu enklare att lösa in entrébiljetter.

Mitt absoluta favoritställe att besöka! Jag var imponerad av skönheten i denna magiska trädgård. Det var ingen kö just då.
