Why this trip
Blue azulejos on church walls, a river that shines in the evening sun and wine cellars on the opposite bank: Porto is down-to-earth and suits women who like to travel on foot, love cafés and seek conversations with locals. On the Ribeira bank you sit at sunset, the Clérigos Church has a tower 75 metres high, and the Romanesque cathedral shows Gothic cloisters. The Jardim do Morro can be reached by cable car, and the gardens of the Palácio de Cristal look out over the Douro. In this way culture and breaks combine.
As accommodation the data list the Torel Palace Porto and the Pestana Palácio do Freixo. Travelling in Porto goes well from March to June and from September to October. Because of the hills comfortable shoes are worthwhile, and the public transport network is well developed. Lisbon, Cascais and Portimão are entered as neighbours.
How you distribute the days between city and river is something you decide on the video call with Swiss Vibes.
