After a relaxing start, we’ll set off mid-morning for an expert foodie tour of Porto…
One of the best ways to experience a culture is through its food. Come hungry, and visit everything from local hot spots to hidden gems for a look into the authentic side of Porto.
We’ll stop for tastings typical of the local cuisine, hand-picked by local guides passionate about food.
Our friendly guide (an award-winning food blogger, no less) will let us in on the secrets behind the treats we’ll be savoring throughout the tour. And along the way, they’ll share with us the heart of the city as they lead us through the backstreets, point out the main monuments, and share insights on the architecture, history, and day-to-day life in this historic city.
In the afternoon, we have a scenic climbing adventure in store…
Porto is known as “the city of six bridges.” Our destination this morning is the Arrábida Bridge, one of the largest concrete arches in the world, and the only one in Europe open to visitors. From the summit we’ll be gifted with stunning views over bustling Porto below (an experience now open to the public for the first time in over 50 years) and a uniquely peaceful vantage point to reflect on life’s challenges and opportunities.
Our action-packed day ends elegantly with a private visit and wine tasting at the magnificent Graham’s cellars…
Built in 1890 and containing a priceless collection of Graham’s Port aging serenely in seasoned oak casks and bottles, our visit includes a guided tour from one of their port wine experts and a selection of delicious tastings and food pairings – a truly unforgettable experience.
