Offered in: English

This experience offers rare access to the authentic world of Portuguese filigree in Gondomar, a tradition passed down through generations and still practiced by skilled local artisans. Rather than simply viewing finished pieces, you’ll witness the entire handcrafted process up close in a working atelier—an intimate encounter not typically available to visitors.

It also combines cultural heritage with sensory experiences: from exploring the history of filigree at the Municipal Museum to optionally enjoying Northern Portuguese gastronomy and visiting a Port Wine cellar in Vila Nova de Gaia. This blend of craftsmanship, storytelling, and taste creates a deeper, more personal connection to Portugal beyond the usual sightseeing tours.
