Porto, the birthplace of port wine, is a charming and hilly old town that winds down to the River Douro through narrow cobbled streets and stepped alleys. The city spreads along both sides of the river which are joined by a stunning two-tier bridge that takes trains, traffic and pedestrians. Visitors can also take ferries across the river or enjoy boat trips into the stunning Douro Valley going past vineyards and port caves, or cellars. Many of the buildings in the Old Town are clinging on from the Middle Ages, decorated with the beautiful blue azulejos, or tiles, typical to the region. Climbing the 200 plus steps to the top of the Torre dos Clérigos or bell tower, helps visitors get their bearings when they first arrive.
Air Nostrum, Vueling and PGA-Portugalia Airlines will get you to Porto at great prices. With over 1000 travel companies on Omio, you can find the best flight times, prices and tickets for your trip.
