This bridge is spectular!! We walked on the lower portion of the bridge to cross over and there were many people. There were teenagers jumping off of the bridge into the water! It was fun and a little wild. Many people and a fair amount of traffic. We walked on the upper portion of the bridge to get back over and it was extremely picturesque. Even with the sun beaming down, the wind was refreshing and it was lovely. Great spot to take photos. The train runs along here but did not seem to affect our experience. I would 100% recommend walking on the upper portion, but the lower portion was fun too! (Also there is a winery when you cross over that we would have missed if we didn’t walk over on the bottom.)

There are many beautiful pictures of the bridge, if you're interested in the architectural structure. My personal pics are not taken from the bridge but from a lovely bar on the river with the bridge to the left of me. Well... I deserved the drink having walked through Porto to get there!

Amazing view regardless of weather. But just be ready to walk in the crowd. Always busy with tourists and street vendors. Also be careful when train passes by. If you want to get a good picture while on the bridge, look for asian guys with big dslr camera taking pictures of their gf or wife. They’re super skilled and professional photographers😆

Ingenious, elegant, photogenic. These are just a few descriptions of Porto's most famous landmark: the (Dom) Luis I Bridge. In 1879, the Portuguese government launched a competition for the construction of a bridge to replace the 1842 Ponte Pênsil. Due to the economic boom, this bridge, officially called the Ponte D. Maria II, could no longer handle the increased traffic. Of the nine proposals submitted, the design by Belgian engineer Théophile Seyrig, one of two by the Société Anonyme de Construction et des Ateliers de Willebroeck, was selected. (A common misconception about the Dom Luis I Bridge is that it was designed by Gustave Eiffel. This is understandable, as Théophile Seyrig, the bridge's designer, co-founded Eiffel et Cie with Gustave Eiffel in 1868.) Construction began on November 21, 1881, and King Luís I of Portugal opened the bridge named after him on October 31, 1886. Exactly two years later, the Lower Bridge was also opened. The Upper Bridge is 395 meters long and 45 meters high, while the Lower Bridge is 172 meters long and 10 meters high. Until January 1, 1944, a toll was charged for using the bridge. While the Lower Bridge has been used by (motorized) traffic since its opening, the Upper Bridge has been closed to motorized traffic since 2003, and since 2005, only light rail trains of the Porto Metro have run across it (and, of course, the many, many pedestrians who come to admire the bridge). No visitor or resident of Porto can or would want to miss this magnificent feat of civil engineering!

Lovely bridge in particular for first time visitors to Porto as you get nice views of the water and areas on both side of the river. Make sure to walk over the bridge both on lower level and upper level as well as both day and night. You get nice and different views in each scenario.

An iconic structure offering panoramic views of Porto. Well-maintained and easily accessible by metro. Perfect for sightseeing and photography. Definitely one of the city’s highlights.

Magnificent bridge for people to walk across the river, and also connects the public transport. Provides a great view from the bridge. But check out the Nice riverside walk too.

Livraria Lello is without a doubt a stunning and historic place. The architecture is impressive and it feels like stepping into a storybook. That said, the experience felt more like visiting a tourist attraction than a library or bookstore. When we went, it was extremely crowded, which made it hard to truly enjoy the space. It was difficult to move around, take in the details, or even browse the books comfortably. The staff seemed a bit tired or impatient, possibly because they deal with large crowds all day. Not rude, but not exactly welcoming either. I paid 10 euros just to enter, which can be used as a credit toward a book. But most of the books were priced around 13 or 14 euros, so you still end up paying extra. Yes, you get a discount, but personally I found the books to be overpriced for what they were. If you're really into architecture or literary history, it might still be worth it. But if you don’t go early, expect it to be packed. Personally, I’m not sure I’d recommend it to someone unless they go first thing in the morning and know what to expect.

There’s no doubt — Livraria Lello is one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world. The moment you step inside, it’s hard not to gasp: the intricate woodwork, the stained glass ceiling, the sweeping red staircase that seems to float in the air — it’s pure architectural poetry. You can absolutely see why people link it to Harry Potter and call it a must-see in Porto. But — and there’s a big “but” — it’s also one of the busiest, most crowded spots in the city. The line outside starts early and grows fast. Unfortunately, the queuing system isn’t well managed — people often skip ahead, and staff struggle to keep order, which can be frustrating, especially if you’ve been waiting patiently. Once inside, the space is stunning but packed wall-to-wall with visitors, making it nearly impossible to take in the details or snap a photo without a crowd in the background. It feels more like a museum moment than a peaceful bookstore visit. That said, the magic is still real. The craftsmanship of the staircase, the warmth of the lighting, and the sheer history of the place make it worth seeing at least once. The attached bookshop sells lovely editions (including Harry Potter books with special covers) and the entrance fee is redeemable toward a purchase — a nice touch. If you go, arrive early, book ahead, and bring patience. It’s undeniably beautiful, even if the experience is far from calm.

Very much a tourist trap. Timed ticket entry with long queues outside and busy inside once you get in. Paid €10 ticket which you can use against a purchase of a book. Very striking interior which was supposed to of inspired JK Rowling when writing Harry Potter. Would maybe best getting the first entry time ticket of the day to fully enjoy the interior.

A bit smaller than I thought, but the place is astonishing. It feels surreal to think about the history that this place has once your inside. The quantities of books in different languages it’s impressive, and the people working in there is very kind and helpful. We went in late on a Monday, so it was not too crowded, but I’ve heard it gets pretty busy and can get out of control with the amount of people because the place is small. My recommendation is plan to go on a less busy time (use Google maps as a guide) and buy your ticket in advance, then enjoy the experience. If you buy a book, the entry ticket gets deducted from the price which is great!

The wait is long, the inside is crowded but beautiful. A small bucket list item for us and it was worth the wait. Make sure to buy tickets online and if you want to skip the wait and plan to buy a book buy a gold ticket! Books are available in multiple languages so no need to worry about not being able to read!

I was SO disappointed. :( You have to pay for a ticket to get in, and that money can be applied to a book if you want to purchase one. The problem is that the selection of books is so sad. Maybe if they stocked books that people would actually want to read then they would have more sales. I’m not usually this negative about stuff, but this was the worst tourist trap I’ve ever experienced. Obviously the staircase was beautiful, but this small and crowded store was a ripoff.

The Lello Bookstore is housed in an outstandingly beautiful building in Porto. It feels as if a magical realism novel has come to life and transformed into architecture. The staircase and ceiling are absolutely incredible — true works of art. As a bookstore, however, the selection is quite limited, with only about 5 to 10 book titles available in different languages. Still, it’s definitely worth the visit for the atmosphere alone. Make sure to buy your ticket in advance — it’s a must!

Very nice placento walk and colorful in summer. A lot of restaurants

Really nice street, with amazing views of the river, the Luis I bridge, restaurants, and the boats. If you're in Porto, you must walk down here!

Absolutely stunning views across the river on both sides of the banks. There is plenty of life and great hustle bustle with several restaurants and live music people singing and plying guitar. There’s wide choice of restaurants and cafes on the bank and the river trips staring points as well.

Excellent walking on riverside, very touristy area and prices are higher. You pay for views of river, bridge and monastery on other side normally you go downstairs from Porto cathedral on steep stairs and refresh here. Huge choices for coffee, drink or eating out

Good vibes loads of restaurants and bars with the odd decent busker pity the sun wasn’t out

Truly a stunning place!! One of my favorite spots in Porto. You can easily walk down from the center and enjoy the river view. There are many coffee shops, bars, and restaurants nearby.

A lively promenade where you can watch people strolling from a terrace while enjoying food and drinks. A promenade perfect for a leisurely stroll and enjoying the view of the Douro River, the rabelos (the traditional boats used to transport barrels of port wine), and the port houses on the other side. These days, it's a promenade claimed primarily by tourists.

The Igreja dos Clérigos is a beautiful church located in the heart of Porto. It features a stunning collection of sacred art in the Baroque style, and every detail — from the magnificent organ to the richly decorated main altar — is truly impressive. If you’re in good shape, don’t miss the climb up the Torre dos Clérigos; the panoramic view of the city from the top is absolutely worth it. I highly recommend visiting this iconic landmark!

We visited the Clérigos Church in Porto and chose the full experience, including the light and sound show — and it was absolutely worth it. The church itself is stunning, with beautiful architecture and a peaceful atmosphere that makes you pause and look around. The light and sound show added a special touch, bringing the history and details of the church to life in a memorable way. It made the visit feel even more meaningful and immersive. Overall, a truly beautiful place and definitely worth visiting if you’re in Porto.

Very beautiful church! People mostly come here for the tower or taking a picture in front of the main gate. Yet, the church inside is very beautiful, so I would strongly recommend to visit the church as well! It is easy to walk from the city center.

The Igreja dos Clérigos (Church of the Clergymen) is particularly striking for its 75.6-meter bell tower, visible from afar in central Porto. This Baroque church of the Brotherhood of the Clergymen was built between 1732 and 1750 to a design by the Italian architect Nicolau Nasoni. Construction of the Torre de Clérigos did not begin until 1754 and, like the monumental double staircase at the front, was completed in 1763. The Clérigos was one of the first churches in Portugal to adopt the oval floor plan common in the Baroque style. Since 2015, the church and tower have been open to visitors in the evenings.

Amazing Church. Our Lady of Sorrows, St John the Evangelist, St Andrew Avellino, Ste Anne Virgin Mary and Child Jesus all representations are wonderful. Our visit was coupled with melancolic music coming from outside... so touching moment highly recommended. Visiting the church is free. Small queue at the entrance.

The Clérigos Church and Tower is a landmark in Porto. I recommend booking in advance as it can get very busy. After the Luis The I Bridge, the Clérigos church and tower are the most visited objectives in Porto. Narrow steps lead to the top of the tower. Once there, you can enjoy a 360-degree view of Porto.

Visiting the tower is a great experience. You walk through the church facilities and rooms which display history and info about the building. Then walk up the narrow stairs in the tower. The view at the top probably offers the best views of Porto.

📍 Location: The ferry offers a scenic crossing between Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia, providing a unique perspective of the city's waterfront. Power Traveller +1 Mike's Travel Guide +1 ⛵ Experience: A pleasant and brief journey that allows passengers to appreciate the beauty of the Douro River and the iconic bridges that connect the two cities. 🏛️ Historical Insight: While the ride is enjoyable, it lacks informative commentary about the rich history of Porto and its landmarks, which could enhance the overall experience. 📸 Views: The ferry provides excellent photo opportunities of the city's architecture and riverside scenes, making it a worthwhile activity for visitors. 💡 Suggestion: Incorporating more interactive elements or guided information about the city's history and the significance of the bridges would greatly enrich the experience. 🌟 Overall: A delightful way to see Porto from the river, though adding historical context would make it even more memorable.

It's just one of but cheap and well explained in 5 languages with a speaker system, you don't need an app or headset. Just plenty of suncream.

€3 to cross the river rather than face the hills and bridges of Porto in 30c+ heat? Sign me up! Added bonus, you'll get a great viewpoint of the bridge during the crossing.

Cool ride along the river for 20euro per person :) I could enjoy the beauty of Porto sunset!

Just beautiful, this was part of a wine tour, if you're there definitely take the boat ride.

You will see 6 Porto bridges. A little bit expensive price for this trip - 18 EUR.

It is awe inspiring leaves you wanting to return

💯% worth it! If you’re questioning ‘is it worth it?’, it most definitely is! It’s a 30 minute guided tour - you’ll come to understand why, but it’s absolutely phenomenal! Thank you for the experience. I would recommend booking tickets early. The great thing the Palácio do is conduct the tours in various languages, therefore slots get booked up pretty quick, so my advice would be to book early/prior. The tour guide was very knowledgeable, saying he had only been there 3 weeks. An excellent guide. Thank you 💫

Beautiful palace showcasing many different elements of Portuguese history of law and commerce. Tickets were reasonable and the tour was fairly informative but not overly long. Be sure to check for the appropriate time slots when visiting.

An amazing building steeped in history that is still being used today! Tight, but informative 30 minute guided tour was worth it and I would recommend you buy the tickets ahead of time. Make sure to take lots of pictures and absorb all you can. My personal favourite was the Arabian room, simply for its grandeur and craftsmanship. I highly recommend it if YOURE in Porto!

Stunning range of architecture and design across a series of rooms. The Arab inspired room was particularly beautiful. Note though that it is a whistle stop tour with not much time to linger. The tour guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable, but time constraints probably meant we missed out on some of the background. Still worth the visit though.

beautiful palace constructed across the reign of the last king and the beginning of the republic, never a royal residence but looks fit to be one. the tour was amazing and loved the guide -- a bit pricier than other attractions but that's being a tourist for you. buy tickets in advance and you might get some discount.

Great! We arrived at 09:05 on a Sunday without having bought an online ticket (wasn’t available the night before). There was no queue and we could immediately buy a ticket for the 30-minute guided tour for the slot at 09:15. Our guide was great, very enthusiastic and clear. What a beautiful place this palace is, with a rich history. Only downside would be that the 30 minutes felt a bit too rushed. We wanted to listen to the guide but also look around a bit (there were some rooms that weren’t explicitly shown by the guide, but that you could enter if you wanted) Doing both at the same time wasn’t always possible. 5-10 minutes extra would be great… but I do understand that they’ve put a time limit on the tours. Our group consisted of about 20-25 people and that was perfect to still enjoy all the different spaces, listen and see the details. You would not want the space to be packed with people just hanging around. I would highly recommend to visit this beautiful place. The pictures speak for itself :)

We took the 30 minute tour in English of this palace and it was very interesting and informative, but maybe didn’t do justice to the interesting history of this landmark. The architecture is pretty amazing and the famous blue room was spectacular to see. Our guide was very friendly and gave a good presentation, but the tour seemed a bit hurried. Spending more time here would be great. I would definitely recommend seeing this unique palace while you’re visiting Porto.

The cathedral in Porto feels like stepping into another time. It’s one of the main landmarks, on the hill, and you can feel the city’s history all around you. Inside, it’s calm and simple, untouched by time. The view from in front of the cathedral is one of the best in Porto. You can actually see the cathedral from almost anywhere, even from the other side of the city. Entry costs 3 euros. Best to go early before the crowd.

A beautiful and historic cathedral with an amazing view over the city and the Douro River. The interior is impressive, with a mix of Romanesque and Gothic styles. The cloisters are stunning and definitely worth the small entry fee. It’s one of the best places to start exploring Porto’s old town.

The Sé do Porto is a stunning cathedral in the heart of Porto. Its main altar features an impressive Baroque style, and the interior is beautifully decorated with traditional azulejos (ceramic tiles). The cloister, though rather minimalist, has a quiet elegance and charm. From the top of the cathedral, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the entire city of Porto.

the most impressive religious building in Porto - no small feat as there are churches with blue tilework on what seems like every corner. also a spot for pilgrims on the Carmino. the religious artwork is exquisite. a climb to the roof will give a great view of the city.

Standing proudly on one of Porto’s highest hills, the Sé do Porto (Porto Cathedral) is a masterpiece of stone and soul — a place where faith, history, and imagination intertwine. Built between the 12th and 18th centuries, it blends Romanesque strength, Gothic arches, and Baroque elegance into one timeless structure. From its terrace, the sweeping views of the Ribeira district, the Douro River, and the Dom Luís I Bridge capture the city’s essence — ancient, dramatic, and endlessly photogenic. Inside, the blue-and-white azulejos and quiet cloisters whisper stories of devotion. But beyond its sacred beauty, there’s a touch of literary magic too. Locals often say Porto feels like Harry Potter, because it was part of J.K. Rowling’s world when she was writing it. During her years living in Porto, the city’s cobbled streets, cloisters, and gothic towers — including the Cathedral — likely helped shape the imagination behind Hogwarts’ enchanting world.

When you visit downtown, you will not miss it. Well situation on highest place as dominant, with fantastic view to city’s surroundings. After you are done, you can walk on steep stairs down to Ribeira and see it from bottom. Nice view is offered to see cathedral from other side of bridge

I didn’t expect to like visiting this complex as much as I did, it was great! Out of all the religious buildings in Porto, I’d say this one is definitely worth a visit. The cloisters are pretty and you can walk up the tower. The cathedral is small but impressive.

This is a very beautiful gothic church with a magnificent roman architecture. Probably one of the oldest church in the city, they have maintained it very well. The only issue I faced was that I was not able to use my credit card here to purchase the ticket as the transaction was getting declined because of non reliable location.

Beautiful church that serves as the national monument. Church is gold plated with the gold that came form Brasil. Place you have to see while in the town.

very nice museum and church

Worth a visit. It's stunning

Very nice!

Super!

Nice church.

Cable car rides with views. Looking interesting and scary at the same time. Be aware of height fear😅 can buy ticket online too -one way 3.5€ and round trip €5 per person

A fantastic way to see Porto from above! The Gaia Cable Car offers stunning views over the Douro River, the Luís I Bridge, and Porto’s colourful old town. The ride is smooth, comfortable, and very peaceful.

Nice views. It costs 7 eur one way and 10 eur round-trip. Porto City card gives a 10% discount, which makes the round trip really worth-it :) The ride is short, but the views from all the sides are worth seeing

Comfortable ride, great views of the river and city. Easy to rnter. You can buy tickets online or at the tetminal. One way €7, return €10.

Great fast cable car. Amazing views. Reasonably priced, no wait time. Definitely recommend

Awesome experience to see the Porto City from Top. Always buy round trip tickets for cheaper option. There is a little market at the bottom where you can buy handcrafted goods by locals.

It’s cool but I think for 7 euros per person, it’s a little overpriced. I think things like these should be priced to keep maintenance up but then be a gift to the people of the city from getting from place to place in a beautiful and inspiring way

This was a fantastic port cellar to visit! The tour itself is very informative and has a lot of historical artifacts, videos, and of course the barrels of port in the giant warehouse. The tour is all self guided at your pace, and gives a complete history of the company and also the port making process. The best part is of course the tasting at the end in Taylor’s beautiful garden. The ports we tried were all top notch (especially the 10 year) and the server was very knowledgeable about the styles. Most definitely worth a special visit if you’re in Porto.

1) I liked the port wine. 2) If you visit, I think the tour including a tasting is a better deal than just the tasting, with tasting sets starting at 22 EUR. 3) Be aware that while the garden is nice, you won’t have much of a view of Porto. 4) Stay away from the bread basket — at 8 EUR for six tiny pieces of mediocre bread, I thought this was a real rip-off that left a bitter taste on the whole experience

We enjoyed visiting this wine cellar and recommend this place to other visitors. The tour is informative and shares context on the wine making process and some history of the founders of this cellar. You get the chance to pass by some real big barrels which was cool. The highlight of the tour was the tasting. You taste the wines in the rooftop garden and if you go to the balcony, you will have a nice view of porto. There is a shop that you can purchase wines. The price was fair for the experience (~€25).

We had such a great tour of the port, followed by a tasting that was absolutely delicious. Marri (forgive me if I’m spelling her name wrong!) was our waitress she was so sweet, spoke perfect English, and really took the time to help us pair our port with food. The pairings were spot-on and made the experience even better. The grounds are stunning, covered in grapevines everywhere you really feel like you’re in the heart of a winery. They also have a charming little shop where you can purchase their port and even their own house olive oil. Another bonus they’re open on Mondays, when many of the other ports in the area are closed. We actually stumbled upon this place, and I’m so glad we did!

If you love port, or think you might, and can splurge a bit for the tawny master class, I highly recommend doing so. While I did it, my wife did the audioguide tour and we both enjoyed ourselves immensely. We didn't do all the bodegas but of the ones we did, this was our favorite.

EUR 34 (Oct. 2025) including WOW Wine museum (+tasting) and tasting Taylor's port wines. Not including Cork museum. Very interesting expositions (both museums) about history and grape industry. Three kinds of port wine and table wines. Multilanguage audio guide. Strongly recommended.

Port wine lover. This is one of the stops you have to add to your ToGo list. Tried their port tasting with our 1st taste of Iberian Ham. What a pairing and was well served by super friendly staff who has shown his interest introducing each and every port characteristics. Wonderful experience. Thank You!

The museum was amazing and was definitely worth it to venture out from the main city of Porto! The exhibitions were insightful and thought provoking. But just the architecture of the museum and the interior space was just a joy to explore. The tickets were too expensive and it’s open until 7pm during weekdays and 8pm during weekends so you can visit during evening! I highly recommend that you visit if you’re at all interested in art and culture!

Enjoyed almost 4-5 hours exploring the entire Foundation, strongly recommend the full General Ticket with "Access to all of the Serralves Foundation" 😍 Beautiful outdoor park and areas to stroll in, and super fascinating art installations in buildings spread around the Foundation estate. Highlight for me was the Serralves Villa - cute pink villa from the outside, very interesting and thought-provoking artworks inside. Worth a visit!!!

One of the coolest museums I’ve ever been to. I went to see the MAURIZIO CATTELAN exhibition, but the permanent exhibition turned out to be just as impressive, with unique pieces and a beautifully curated layout. The garden was also lovely. We did the “walk on the treetop” in heavy rain, and still had a lot of fun.

We didn't realise there was a charge just to walk around the park - €15! We would not have minded paying if the park was better cared for, but each water feature (lake, pond, fountain etc) was very dirty or had lots of algae. There was even a drowned Pinocchio floating in the Lake 😟! The Treetops walk was lovely though and included in that fee, hence 3 stars...! Not sure I would suggest making the effort unless you also plan to perhaps visit the museums.

You need at least half day to explore both the museum and the gardens. There's no option for visiting only the museum, you have to pay 24 euros for both museum and the gardens. It's an interesting place. We enjoyed a photo exhibition and the library, but we were not excited by the rest. If you have a lot of days visiting Porto and want to spend 24 euros, (plus 20€ for Uber) go for it!

This is actually a really lovely art museum and very beautiful gardens including sculptures outside which are integrated into the garden. But there are many problems with it. For a steep entry fee (compared to other galleries we've been to) of 24 euro the staff should be super helpful from the outset to ensure you make the most of your (expensive) visit - including clearly explaining the layout of the museum and grounds because the signage is unclear or non existent. We were there over 3 hours and still only managed to find the new wing of the art museum just 15 minutes before the museum + park closed. This was a massive disappointment given the new wing is quite large and filled with (what we hurriedly saw) great modern art. The entry to the new wing is currently a temporary one through an almost hidden external door (internal door not available due to new installation underway, or if it was available it wasn't signposted). Also the art deco villa on the grounds is closed - the museum should really discount overall entry due to a key feature being inaccessible. Staff (ample) throughout the museum and grounds were keen to ask for your ticket to be shown but not helpful beyond this. This is a 3 star review for the content of this establishment but minus 2 stars for quite inadequate staff support and guidance. If you are going here, give yourself a good 3 hours to make the most of it.

Honestly, this was one of the worst museums I’ve visited. Tickets are definitely too expensive. The exhibitions didn’t engage much. Not really worth the time unless you’re a big modern art fan. Some attractions (e.g., the villa, certain wings) were closed, yet we still had to pay the full price. Insufficient information/poor signage—it should be easy to find all parts of the museum complex.

This is an impressive art of modern architecture. Unfortunately I was a bit late to arrive and was not able to visit inside, but the building itself is marvelous. There is a good space for skateboarders outside it, with many people skating and skateboarding around the area.

Crazy architecture and even more crazy when you see how all the details in each venue come together to create the perfect space for each concert. I would recommend buying a ticket for the tour (8 euro). You can just explore on your own pace and use your phone and headphones to be guided through the building by scanning the qr-codes.

Northwest of Porto's historic center stands a much more recent monument: the Casa de Música. This concert hall was designed by Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas and was scheduled for completion in 2001 when Porto was the European Capital of Culture. Due in part to its unusual shape, the building wasn't completed until four years later, opening its doors on April 14, 2005. Besides its modern design, the building is also renowned for its exceptionally good acoustics (and rightly so, considering its construction cost €111.2 million). There are two halls: the large Suggia Hall with 1,238 seats and the flexible Hall 2 with 300 seats and 650 standing. Even if you're not attending a concert, a visit to the Casa da Música is worthwhile.

A must-visit for music lovers, especially if you’re into the experimental side! We went to a Friday night “Digitopia” performance in the Sala 2 (a trio featuring percussion, guitar, and piano, among other experimental instruments and great lighting) and it was phenomenal. Definitely more avant-garde than your typical concert experience: think bold soundscapes, unexpected rhythms, and stunning musicianship. If you have a music background or even just a curiosity for the contemporary, you will not be disappointed. Funny enough, our Portuguese tour guide the day before suggested we skip the performance and just do a tour of the building (he said it wasn’t really his style) but I’m so glad we trusted our instincts and booked tickets. The space itself is striking, but it comes alive when you experience a live performance. Highly recommend checking the schedule and seeing something live!

Impressive building, with several modern concert halls. Guided tours weren't available when we visited but there was a "Keyboard Marathon", mini piano recitals by many pupils from various music schools across Portugal, and we could listen to a couple of young, dazzling performers.

Great building. Saw a 12 euro concert and was fantastic. Great way to see the building and enjoy some local music. Watch out for the lady outside after asking for money.

Really good interesting tour. Our guide, António, spoke excellent english and was friendly and approachable.

Quick ride to the top, helpful if you have walking difficulties or just want to rest after all day wonder around. Quick ride, spectacular views and you are getting a discount on a ride with your Porto card.

Last time I was in Porto the funicular was closed for renovations so I was glad to be able to ride it this year. The price is reasonable, the ride is short. There's a good view from the front of the car to the water & bridge.

If you don't fancy a steep climb from the riverbank to the higher reaches of Porto, you can take the Funicular dos Guindais. Its 281-meter-long track not only allows you to climb 61 meters (with a maximum gradient of 36.1%), but also offers excellent views of the Dom Luis I Bridge and the Muralhas Fernandinas do Porto. The history of this funicular is somewhat remarkable: in 1891, the original track was built, measuring 412 meters long, with a gradient of 80 meters and a maximum gradient of a whopping 49%. However, two years later, the funicular closed after a serious accident, and it wasn't until 2004 (!) that it reopened.

Only a few hundred steps and not very steep—not worth the €4 for a one-way ride. It was extremely hot inside, almost impossible to breathe. Don’t try it—it’s a waste of money.

a LOT of people get packed into one cabin, which kind of ruins the experience. the price is also a bit high for such a short ride. happy I tried it once, would not do it again.

The one way fee is 4 EUR. There are long queues, so you won’t save any time using this. The car itself is very hot inside due to limited or poor air conditioning. Furthermore, the attendant working there did not allow us to wait for the next car so we could get a seat. We were forced to use next the next car that was already full to the brim. Never again.

I used on a weekday at 7pm to get the sunset, was no queue at all. 4€ ticket one way.

This is a small Port winery established since 1890s with a lovely adjourning Vinum restaurant overlooking the beautiful city. All the wine making and corking process is still being performed traditionally by hand. The port tasting was interesting as I tasted rich and sweet to nutty and smooth (my first time). The dinner was gastronomical (grilled sausages, crispy pork belly, wine pairing, etc.). 😋

Graham’s winery was amazing! The small museum is very interesting, and our guide was excellent, fluent in English and shared lots of fascinating details. The port wine tasting was great as well. Portions for the food pairings could be a bit bigger, but overall it was a very enjoyable experience.

We visited for a late-morning pre-booked English tour & tasting. We walked from Porto, which was all fine until we started to climb to Graham's - it was a challenging walk on the roads, with very teeny tiny shoulders! We arrived with only a few minutes to spare for our scheduled tour time. The exterior grounds and view are GORGEOUS - absolutely spectacular. If I had realized they were that nice I likely would have just had a drink on the terrace to soak it all in. However, the tour was mostly interesting; longer and more detailed than I had anticipated it being. I'm glad we did it, though I don't remember any of the information provided now. I think we had the misfortune of being in a tour group with some rather pretentious types; I felt a little bad for the tour guide (who was very friendly) as some of the guests seemed to be peppering her with some snooty-seeming (to me) questions. Maybe it was just a handful of bougie travellers, I don't know. The tour was followed by a tasting in a large, open room; we just did the basic tasting of 3 ports (I'm not a Port person, but the LBV was good) but I noticed others likely purchased one of the upgraded experiences with tasting items, etc. That part was mostly left on our own to taste, after the guide explained things, which I liked. We walked through the shop at the end, took another look around the beautiful landscaping and terrace, and hopped on an Uber back to our next destination!

Went here at open and everyone was super accommodating and nice. Did a tasting and bought lots of goodies at the gift shop. The shop is fully stocked with amazing stuff at great prices.

The views are the best of any port winery in the city and the tasting rooms are very nice. I just wish I’d skipped the “premium” tasting (the “six grapes” blend was horrible) and cheese “pairing” (quite bad) in favor of the nicer tasting options.

Live guide excursion with Bruna was Gorgeous! Amazing interiors, interesting stories, a lot of facts about producing, keeping wine. Totally recommend!!!

Highly recommend the guided tour and tasting. This is the best place for that and our guide was very knowledgeable about the port wine!

Visited here for a guided tour and it did not disappoint at all. The stadium is very beautiful and the history of the stadium and the club is very interesting. During the guided tour two staff people were very friendly and explained the history of the club and various locations within the stadium very well. The ground itself is very well maintained and beautiful. This was a memorable visit and I recommend it to any sports fans travelling to the city.

Beautiful stadium! Well located and easy to get to. Also, Portuguese people are obsessed with football which makes the energy always high and euphoric. A note for history: On this day, 16 Nov 2025, Portugal qualified for the World Cup with 9 - 1 crushing Armenia 😃

I made a surprise for my son. Porto vs. Roma, It was an interesting match! I took a blanket so it wouldn't be cold The stadium staff is friendly. Lots of police. Europa League match.

Great stadium and worth to visit. Ticket prices are fair and the game was quite good. Also easy to get to the stadium from city center by subway. The atmosphere was a little boring so I only give 4/5 stars.

just10 mins away from the city center, very interesting place even if you're not a football fan. stadium + museum tour for 20 euros, worth a visit

Amazing stadium, if you don't have a chance to catch a game here it's worth visiting

Amazing stadium with a fantastic match-day atmosphere. The FC Porto Museum is also well worth a visit.
