About this experience

Duration: 4 hours

Did you know that Porto is known for its important contributions to architecture?

Including works by Pritzker Prize laureates. Álvaro Siza is a renowned Portuguese architect, celebrated for his poetic modernist buildings that blend harmoniously with their surroundings.

This tour offers a glimpse of Porto’s rich architectural fabric, showcasing the works of Álvaro Siza, one of its most distinguished architects. Whether you are an architecture enthusiast or a curious traveller, Porto’s buildings and structures are sure to inspire and impress.

Let us set off on a tour of stunning architectural wonders that blend perfectly with their natural surroundings. Although my degree is in Fine Arts (Painting) rather than Architecture, I have always been fascinated by the interaction between interior and exterior spaces, the scale of the buildings and the way they interact with public spaces.
