About Porto

Porto climbs the hills above the Douro River and gave its name to port wine, aged and shipped from the cellars across the water. Its historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with tiled churches, a cathedral and steep, narrow streets. Iron bridges link the city to its wine-lodge neighbour.

TravelDaddy verdictCharming, hilly and wonderful value.

A practical first trip balances the must-sees with one unscheduled half-day.
