Porto: Panoramic

Porto is one of the most beautiful European cities. We will start our visit with a panoramic view of the seafront at the beach in Matosinhos, travelling along the coast reaching the “Foz” at the mouth of the Douro river, passing through the old medieval city district of Miragaia and arriving at the Clerigos Tower.

Tower of Clerigos-Lello Bookstore - Carmo Church (Igreja do Carmo)

Here we can photograph the symbol of this city: the Clerigos Tower. Built-in 1754, the Tower is 75 meters high and at the time, the tallest building in the city of Porto. Next, we will visit Lello bookshop where author JK Rowling found the inspiration to write the best-seller “Harry Potter”. It is without a doubt one of the most outstanding bookstores in the world. Lello’s architectural beauty is a great attraction for a vast number of tourists. We will stop for photographs at Carmo Church (Igreja do Carmo) noted for its marvelous exterior facades decorated with blue and white ceramic tiles.

Sao Bento Train Station and Porto Cathedral

The train station of Sao Bento is internationally renowned for its interior tile panels depicting important events in the history of Portugal. Another stop on our tour is the Porto Cathedral which began construction in the 12th century. It is one the city’s oldest monuments built in the Romanesque architecture style and its location, high above the city, is a perfect place to see the fantastic views of the Douro River and the bridges that join its two banks together.

Gaia

Here we can find the wine cellars of the famous Port wine. Optional wine tasting and visit to one of the cellars of the first demarcated wine region in the world: the Port Wine Region.

Compostela

Santiago de Compostela, the Galician city located in northeastern Spain, became the major center of pilgrimage in Europe, supplanting Jerusalem, after the mortal remains of the Apostle St. James were found in the 9th century. Here we will have time to visit the 11th century Cathedral and the tomb of the Apostle of Christ. Walking tour of the historic area of the city.
