Live Portugal through the inviting atmosphere and the characteristic flavors of Porto, a fascinating and vibrant city that is rapidly becoming one of Western Europe’s most respected tourist destinations. A coastal town in northwest Portugal known for its stately bridges, steep cobbled streets, intricate Baroque churches, and port wine production, this city has something mystical that is difficult to describe and which varies according to the place, time of day and light.

Vila Nova de Gaia :

Vila Nova de Gaia, or ‘Gaia’ to locals, takes you back to the 17th-century beginnings of port-wine production when British merchants transformed wine into the post-dinner drink of choice by adding a dash of brandy. Enjoy a walking tour of the part of the city renowned for its Port cellars. Visit three of the best cellars to enjoy tours and tastings.

Douro Valley :

Visit two wineries on a day wine tour through the gorgeous Douro Valley. The Douro Valley region is probably Portugal’s most famous wine region and one of the most beautiful and oldest ones in the world, recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 2001. Soon after leaving Porto, you will know you are in the Douro Valley when you start seeing the breathtaking steep slopes covered with vineyards and roads winding up to the peaks. Wine tasting, lunch, and transportation included.

Dinner :

Savor a traditional Portuguese dinner where you’ll be treated to live Fado entertainment. Fado is generally known for how expressive it is, as well as being profoundly melancholic. The combination couldn’t be more sublime: a delicious and typical Portuguese dinner, while the “fadista” sings her stories, accompanied by the smooth melody of the twelve-stringed Portuguese guitar and the six-stringed viola. Just imagine the superb environment that is waiting for you.

Private Accommodations :

Enjoy a 5-night stay in a lovely 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment for four people in Porto. On the slopes above the Douro Estuary, Porto is a historic mercantile city with business and trade written into its very name. The center is a World Heritage site, and you’ll be struck by how rich and varied this heritage can be: there are medieval walls, gleaming Baroque churches, the small streets of the Ribeira district, the Romanesque Cathedral, and that’s just the beginning.
