Porto:

Located in northern Portugal on the banks of the Douro River, the city of Porto (sometimes called Oporto) is truly a visual delight. Holidays to Porto guarantee a city break full of superb sightseeing, lovely food and wine and an all-round rich travel experience.

A holiday in Porto is utterly romantic as the riverbank is lined with beautiful old buildings leading off into tiny streets and ancient piazzas adorned with wonderful monuments and landmark churches. Hailed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996, the old Ribeira District is an historic marvel. One of the oldest European cities, Porto was an outpost of the Roman Empire, so the city is steeped in history. Marvellous architecture abounds and you will experience medieval, Romanesque, gothic, neoclassic and romantic styles on your holiday in Porto.

Porto holidays are an experience of medieval and modern living happily side by side. The city is very hilly with old houses carved into the steep cliff face and labrythine stone steps leading up and down, so stout shoes and a brave heart are essential for a great walking tour! Old traditions are retained in Porto, elements largely forgotten in other European cities and a genuine Bohemian spirit still exists.
