Discover Porto on foot, through its stories, its most iconic places, and those details that often escape those who visit the city alone.
We will pass through the heart of Porto among churches covered in azulejos, squares, alleys, and panoramic viewpoints, from the Clérigos Tower to São Bento station, up to the Cathedral and the Luís I Bridge.
But this tour doesn't want to be a simple list of dates and monuments. We will talk about Porto through stories, curiosities, and daily life, to understand what makes this city so special.
During the journey there will be space for questions, photographs, and tips on restaurants, local specialties, and places to discover in the following days.
It is the ideal tour especially at the beginning of the stay: in a few hours you will have a first look at the city and many ideas to continue exploring it independently.
A simple and pleasant way to know Porto, completely in Italian and with the eye of someone who lives it every day.
