Höjdpunkter

In this visit, you will understand the history and roots of the portuguese! Guimarães is deply related to the most important events in Portugal's foundation, and also our first capital back on the 12th century. Since then, the area has kept its structure, including the castle and fortified wall. Today, countless pieces that tell the history of Portugal are still very present and visible to everyone. On this tour you will visit the most iconic monuments in the country, but also discover true treasures that even few residents know about! By the afternoon we take a journey to the highest point in about 40km, from where you will have contact with the greenest area of the surroundings, with a fantastic view over the town of Guimarães.

About Porto

Porto rasar ner för branta kullar till Douro, en granitstad av kaklade kyrkor, vinkällare vid floden och portvin som mognar på andra sidan vattnet.

Stadsdelen Ribeira kantar flodstranden med färgglada hus, caféer och båtar, en del av ett Unesco-skyddat gammalt centrum under järnbågarna på Dom Luís I-bron. Ovanför är stationshallen São Bento täckt av blåvita azulejos, tornet Clérigos reser sig över taken och Sé-katedralen står på sin kulle.

Top-ranked sights in Porto: Clérigos Church and Tower (Torre & Igreja dos Clérigos), Dom Luis Bridge (Ponte de Dom Luis I), Porto Cathedral (Sé Catedral do Porto).
