Porto is a city of many layers and unusual attractions, therefore, this will be a totally eclectic tour as Porto itself! Near the statues and the black-and-white stone pavement of the Praça Carlos Alberto, we'll visit a precious City's Museum, a repository for historic building materials - the famous Portuguese tiles called "azulejo". We'll discover the dynamic Art Quarter that makes Porto a fascinating cultural destination. Urban art also has great relevance in this Quarter, since it was here in 2013 that 3 artists created the first legalised mural in Porto:"Don Quixote & Sancho Panza". Our walk will continue through the most secret route: the Romanticism one. Integrated in a green area, close to bourgoise manor houses and across narrow pathways, offering wide views over the river and the sea. We'll reach Miragaia neighborhood - come to know its stories and legends. Last but not least, for a relaxing break during our way, I've selected a cozy wine bar for your tasting. Welcome!

This is a Walking Tour and Porto is a steep town. I was cautious designing this tour from high to low areas, for you not to be tired. Anyway, please bring comfortable shoes. We'll have comfort stops. Walking tours proceed in rain or shine and inclemet weather conditions do not cover a refund. If there is a chance of rain and wind on the day of the tour, please be prepared with rain-appropriate attire.
