Porto

Provided by Google

Porto’s picturesque streets are home to grand medieval buildings, revolutionary history, and cute cafés filled with culinary delights. On this self-guided walking tour, you’ll hear the stories of kings who dressed their dead wives as queens, princes who launched the Age of Discovery, and ordinary citizens who shaped Portugal’s destiny.

Starting in front of the impressive Porto City Hall, you’ll wander through cobbled streets where Roman settlers once traded, medieval merchants crafted sword scabbards, and Portuguese rebels proclaimed the first republic. You’ll hear the history hidden beneath its famous blue tiles and granite facades.

As you make your way to Vila Nova de Gaia, Porto’s neighbouring city where the tour ends, you’ll head up steps to spectacular viewpoints. 

By the end of this tour, you’ll have an experience of Porto not just as a tourist destination, but as a living chronicle of Portuguese creativity.

This walking tour covers about two miles with some uphill sections.
