The Porto Day
Three or four places, properly, instead of ten in a hurry. We start in the medieval streets around the cathedral, where Porto began, and follow the city down to the river: the merchants and the trade that built it, the industry that kept it working, and the way it still lives today — in its cafés, markets and neighbourhoods where everyone seems to know everyone.
Then we cross the Douro to Vila Nova de Gaia and go down into the port cellars. Even if you don't drink, trust me — they're worth it: centuries of oak casks, merchant families from two countries, and the story of a wine that shaped a whole region.
And there is one view worth the climb, at the hour when the light is right.
I'll take your photos along the way.
- Not drinking? There's an alcohol-free pairing.
- Getting around: on foot — with a private car and driver on request, from partners I've worked with for years.
- Headsets: Porto is lively and loud in places, so on request I bring lightweight headsets — you'll hear every story.
