Visit one of the most beautiful cities in Portugal when you take this trip to Porto. You will discover all the famous bridges over the river Douro and explore the beautiful old town of the city.
Porto Trip
Leaving from Plaza de Galicia square in the center of Santiago, we will head on the road to Porto.
Once we arrive in the iconic Portuguese city, we will start our tour by exploring the historic center. We will stroll around the vicinity of the medieval era cathedral while our professional guide tells us about the fascinating history of this locality.
Our route continues by visiting the nearby station of Sao Bento to admire its traditional Azulejo ceramic tile decoration. We will pay special attention to those located in the main foyer illustrating different episodes from the city's history.
Our next stop is the Clérigos Church bell tower. The viewpoint (3 euros) offers one of the best panoramic views of Porto. After capturing this moment on camera, we then head back down to the banks of the river Douro. Here, you will have 60 minutes of free time to have lunch in the way you prefer. Several restaurants in this area have terraces overlooking the Dom Luís I Bridge, one of the most famous in the city.
After eating we will finally head back to Santiago de Compostela.
