10 Things to do in Porto, Portugal Travel Guide Video Transcript: (OPORTO)
Lisbon is beautiful, but Porto is magical. We arrived in Porto with our taxi driver’s words still ringing in our ears, and we’re happy to say, the city did not disappoint!
Our time in Porto was spent sipping on Port wine, soaking in the views across the Douro River, wandering through the hilly streets, and marvelling at buildings covered in blue tiles.
In this travel guide, we’re going to share a little bit of Porto’s magic with you, and also show you some of the things you too can see, eat, and drink when you visit Porto!
Known as the Chapel of Souls, this church is covered in tiles that represent moments in the life of Saint Francis of Assisi and Saint Catherine.
This bookstore is a feast for the eyes. The bookstore was even frequented by JK Rowling when she taught English in Porto, and it’s reported to have been an inspiration in her Harry Potter series.
We continued our walk downhill until we reached the São Bento Train Station.
Porto Cathedral is one of the oldest landmarks in the city with cloisters where the walls are covered in blue tiles.
We reached the neighbourhood of Ribeira, which sits right on the shores of the Douro River. This neighbourhood is lined with many sidewalk cafes, bars, and restaurants, so it’s a nice place to rest your legs and do a bit of people watching. Feeling hungry we wandered down some of the back streets until we found a small restaurant serving up local specialities.
We made time for one more attraction: the Church of Saint Francis.
The Bridge we had all been waiting for was Dom Luis the first Bridge, which spans the Douro River. The lower deck carries regular traffic with narrow walkways for those on foot, and the upper deck is reserved for pedestrians and the metro lines.
For the best views of Porto, you need to walk the upper deck!
There was only one thing on our minds: visit one of the many wineries that line this side of the river! We ended up walking into Croft for a wine tasting without need for an appointment, and this turned out to be one of our favourite activities in Porto!
Filled to the brim with port wine, cheese and chocolate, we enjoyed a light stroll along the Douro River, watching the boats bob in the water.
That’s a wrap for our visit to Porto! We hope you guys enjoyed following along and that you got a few ideas for your own trip. If you have any other suggestions of fun things to do in and around Porto, feel free to share those with travellers in the comments below.
This is part of our Travel in Portugal video series showcasing Portuguese food, Portuguese culture and Portuguese cuisine.

5 Top Tourist Attractions in Portugal
Portugal is a small country that faces the Atlantic coast of the Iberian Peninsula. Because of its beautiful coastline and historical heritage, it is one of the most visited countries in Europe. Its smaller size makes it easier to get around and see more places than say neighboring Spain in the same amount of time. The temperate climate makes it a year-round vacation destination, where travelers can see Roman and Moorish ruins among other tourist attractions in Portugal.

5 Awesome Places You Have To Visit When In PORTO, Portugal!
World's most beautiful McDonalds? The narrowest house in the world? A beautiful peacock park? Panoramic views across the city? Traditional Fado music and interactive Porto wine tour? Check out these 5 wonders of Porto!
Introduction:
Hey everybody and welcome back to another episode of Triple P with me Surya Sridhar. So guys I am in one of the most beautiful destinations in all of Portugal. It was voted as the best European destination in 2014 as well as 2017. It is none other than Porto! And the best part of this trip is that I’m visiting my dad here for one week, so let’s hand it over to him.
Hey guys! I got a new job: acting on Triple P, for 1 Euro an hour. It’s fun! Let’s explore Porto together. Wonderful!
Number 1: Ribeira, Gaia, & Dom Luis Bridge
Jump onto the yellow line and get off the stop Jardim do Morro to get a full panoramic view across the city from the Dom Luis Bridge. You’ll be stunned by the beautiful city before your eyes! There are so many things to see and do. Everything from the bridge jumpers, to going on boat cruises, enjoying the music and dance performances, grabbing an aperitif or yummy snacks like churros, or maybe even buying some gifts from the line of market stalls. You’ll not run out of things to do! Lastly, don’t forget to enjoy the cable car ride down to the Gaia side to explore the best wine tour companies. It is 6 Euros one way and 9 Euros both ways!
Number 2: Calem Porto Wine Tour
On the Gaia side, you will notice a line of famous Porto wine companies including Graham’s, Ferreira, Sandeman and many more. I decided to check out Calem’s wine tour which included a guided tour to the Cálem Cellar which was super interactive and very informational. It was then followed by a tasting of two Port Wines: White and Special Reserve, which could be enjoyed during a special Fado concert, with a male and female voice, accompanied by the traditional Portuguese Guitar as well as the Classical one.
Number 3: World’s Most Beautiful McDonalds
This McDonalds restaurant was inaugurated in 1995 and was previously the Imperial Café, an emblematic historic building from the 30s by the Aliados Avenue. It is not your conventional McD especially due to its luxurious look, as well as the fact that in the McCafe you get a genuine Portuguese coffee with a custard tart called Pasteis de Nata. Very surprising indeed!
Number 4: Crystal Palace Garden
More than 150 years old, this place is loved by both tourists and locals. It is a lush place, home to many plant and animal species including the colourful peacock. If you make your way to the end, you’ll find a fun maze that also overlooks the beautiful Ribeira river. Take your time to explore this area, soak up the suns rays and when you’re tired, head on over to a nearby local coffee shop for a Portuguese Pingo and their famous cream filled pastry.
Number 5: Caramelite Church, Carmo Church & The Hidden House
Known as one of the most curious structures in Porto, these two churches that stand as two different religious buildings, but actually look like a single architectural structure. Separating them, is the world’s narrowest house, only one meter in width. It only costs a few Euros to explore and has 3 storeys in total. The interesting story behind this house is that it was formed specially to stop the communication between the nuns of the Caramelite Church and the monks at the Carmo Church. Very interesting indeed!

Lisbon, Portugal in Three Days: Must-See Attractions
It was our first time visiting Lisbon and we are so glad that we ventured to this vibrant city. If you've ever visited San Francisco, you'll find some very familiar sights in Lisbon. The steep streets, trams and even the suspension bridge are all very similar to what you would see in San Francisco. They look like sister cities!
Although Lisbon is a bustling, busy city, you can still feel the warmth of the people who are very friendly and willing to help you out, especially when you get lost!
