Get to know Porto from a local's point of view. It is the perfect introduction to the city as it provides you with important information to better enjoy your stay in the city, such as information on excursions, restaurants, and cultural life.
Porto is the second largest city in Portugal and is world-famous for its port wine. Located in the hills along the Douros estuary, it is a unique city with over 2000 years of history and a beautiful old town full of historic buildings, exceptional monuments, and picturesque medieval streets, which have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996.
Visit with me the historic center of Porto, the Sé Cathedral, the "Torre dos Clérigos," the baroque churches, the neoclassical stock exchange, the São Bento station hall with tiles, the majestic Luis I iron bridge and the Lello bookstore, known all over the world for having inspired the author of Harry Potter, the imposing City Hall, a 20th-century building reminiscent of the architecture of the great city buildings of northern Europe, and many other places.
I hope to see you soon!
