Porto is a very old town, but it is also the homeland of two Pritzker awarded architects: Siza Vieira and Souto Moura. In this last decades Porto has assumed a main role in Contemporary Art and Architecture in Portugal. This tour will take us on a panoramic drive (private car and driver) around the modern districts of the city, the beautiful oceanfront, and it will give us the opportunity to appreciate the most iconic modern buildings as the Casa da Musica by Rem Koolhaas, the Palácio de Cristal, or the Modern Passenger Terminal for the big cruise liners. The Foz neighborhood, by the oceanfront, is our favourite way to chill out. Nothing is more relaxing than having lunch (or a drink) overlooking the Atlantic. The climax is the (included) visit to the Serralves Foundation rated among the best contemporary art museums in the world, which also comprises a Park and a Villa. A full day dedicated to the modern side of Porto.
. Start at the hotel / meeting point. . Panoramic drive around town. .
