Our expert tipps for your holidays in Porto:
Cross the river by boat to the Port Wine Cellars on the other side and particpate in a wine tasting
Visit the cathedral above the old town. It can be reached by stairs. Not far away is the train station St. Bento with impressive Azulejos - the famous blue tiles with scenes of the portuguese history.
Shopping! The car-free shopping street Rua Sta. Catarina is highly recommendable and leads you directly to the colourful Bolhão market, where you can buy everything from fruits and household goods to pets and everything else that you could possibly need in every day life.
An excursion per train or boat to the world famous and picturesque Douro- Valley, to the idyllic region Minho, north of Porto, with its quiescent river valleys and wine areas as well as its pretty capital Braga -the religious centre of the country- is worth the time.
