Additional Information

This tour takes place mainly in the old town (Baixa) and usually lasts 2:30 hours. But we can shorten it on request, add stops, as you wish.

A tour for those who want to get a good insight into the history and culture of Porto and take a pleasant free tour, without the classic long lectures.

Emphazasing the historical development of culture, architecture and art but chilled and in good mood. We grab some coffee if some are still sleepy, some beer if too happy, some pastry if too cravy: its your tour though.

Interesting views, Architectural and cultural insights, Break for a Coffee and Pastry or Wine, Special alleys, Visit to Historic Interiors, Foody-tips for rich and poor and the most beautiful views!

In case of rain, we move as possible between covered areas to reduce wetness even though, you might want to carry an umbrella.

  • Good legs for stairs and steep roads required
  • Not recommended for travelers, who don’t like/wish/are able to walk :)
