Visit Porto in 4 days - Travel Packages to Portugal

After our arrival at Porto airport, one of our vehicles will transfer us to the hotel. 

The rest of the day will be for us to relax and start enjoying this wonderful city, ideal for exploring on foot, fully immersing ourselves in its narrow streets filled with history and nostalgia.

Porto is a true delight for the eyes, a city that can captivate you from the very first moment, thanks to its hills, its decadent yet magical houses, and especially thanks to the Ribeira district, from where you can admire an incredible view and the boats passing beneath the Ponte Dom Luis I, an iron construction made by a close collaborator of Gustave Eiffel.

The city is not large, and if it weren't for its steep hills, it would be easy to walk everywhere on foot. Nevertheless, strolling through the narrow alleys of the city, you will have the opportunity to admire daily life, with laundry hanging and staircases leading to neighborhoods where time seems to have stood still.

Greca Tip: This city is full of activities, you can choose to enjoy a walk at sunset along the Douro River, a visit to the emblematic Mercado do Bolhao, or taste some of the local sweet wines.

After breakfast, we can enjoy a panoramic tour of the city.

Thanks to the hop-on/hop-off system, we will have the opportunity to stop at the most interesting sites while exploring the city at our own pace.

The tour is accompanied by an audio guide, available in 12 languages, including English, to learn about the most fascinating facts about the city. We can choose between two routes:

1. Historical Porto: Showcasing the city's famous landmarks and monuments, such as Casa da Música, the iconic Lello bookshop, or the Torre dos Clérigos, ending in the Gaia area, which offers the most impressive views of the city.
2. Porto Castles: In addition to sharing stops with the historical route, allowing us to discover the highlights of the city, the tour continues towards the beaches and seafood restaurants in Matosinhos.

The ticket also includes a tasting of Porto wine available at the Poças Junior and Quinta da Boeira cellars in Gaia.

Greca Tip: Matosinhos is full of restaurants with fresh fish. On Rua Heróis de França, there are several places that bring locally caught fish to the Doca de Pesca (located on the same street) every morning.

After breakfast, you'll have a full day to explore the city of Porto at your own pace.

Porto offers a wide range of activities for you to enjoy. Take a leisurely sunset stroll along the Douro River, visit the iconic Mercado do Bolhao, or indulge in the local sweet wines. As the second most important tourist city in Portugal, Porto has a rich history and a unique charm.

There has always been a friendly rivalry between Porto and Lisbon, the capital city. Some say Porto has a touch of British influence due to its past as a hub for English wine merchants. The historic center of Porto, known for its size and preservation, was rightfully recognized as a World Heritage Site in 1996.

Greca Tip: Don't miss the chance to taste the famous "Francesinha," one of Porto's most iconic dishes. This delectable delight consists of bread, wet-cured ham, linguiça, and fresh sausages like chipolata, steak, or roast meat, all topped with melted cheese and smothered in a hot, thick spiced tomato and beer sauce.

After enjoying a delicious breakfast at your hotel, our tour will come to an end, hopefully filled with unforgettable memories!

After spending fantastic days together with Greca, we look forward to seeing you again to enjoy more wonderful moments that will stay with you forever in your memory.

Have a nice trip! Or, as you would say, "Boa Viagem!"

Greca Tip: If you feel like your stay in this city was short, you can add more nights in step 1 during the booking process!
