Highlights
Porto is one of the oldest cities in Europe. The city’s fascination lies in its vibrancy and extensive history, the ancient Ribeira medieval district with narrow cobbled streets and beautiful plazas, churches and colourful houses with bright tiled façades. A prosperous industrial and commercial district. Overlooks Douro River Estuary, vineland devoted to vineyards of course producing the famed Port Wine. This is the right place for it. May this be just a short break getaway, you will not be disappointed, you will find outstanding tourist attractions, buzzing nightlife, traditional cuisine and of course great wines.
