Best of Porto

Discover the best of Porto on a private tour designed to reveal the true soul of the Invicta City.

Starting at your hotel, this route takes you through the monuments, viewpoints and traditions that make Porto a unique destination. We visit the Porto Cathedral and the Dom Luís I Bridge, one of the most emblematic places to enjoy the view over the Ribeira and the Douro River. Along the way, see the Church of Santa Clara, São Bento Station, considered one of the most beautiful in the world for its magnificent azulejo panels, and the Stock Exchange Palace, where you can admire the impressive Arab Room.

We continue to the Gothic Church of São Francisco, with interiors lavishly decorated with gilded woodwork, and to the Ferreira Borges Market, today a space dedicated to culture and leisure. In the Ribeira, enjoy the unique atmosphere of the narrow streets and colourful façades before having free time for lunch.

In the afternoon, the experience continues with a cruise on the Douro River, which offers a privileged perspective of the city’s six bridges. We will also visit one of the historic Port wine cellars for a guided tour with tasting included, discovering the secrets of the wine production that made the region famous worldwide.

The tour continues with a cable-car ride up to Serra do Pilar, where you can enjoy one of the most beautiful panoramas over Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. We also pass the Clérigos Tower, the Portuguese Centre of Photography, housed in the former Relação Prison, and visit the iconic Lello Bookshop, renowned for its extraordinary architecture and elegant Art Nouveau staircase.

Before returning to the hotel, we finish at the Passeio das Virtudes Park, one of the favourite places to contemplate unique flavours.
