Day by day
Day 1: Day 1: Arrival and settling in. The Livraria Lello welcomes you with an Art Nouveau façade and a curved wooden staircase, which counts among the best-known bookshops in Europe. As an arrival programme the visit suits well: inside it is manageable, and the lanes around it are quickly found. Over the first coffee nearby, the participants exchange reading tips and notice how many interests overlap.
Day 2: Day 2: Relaxed day. In the morning the gardens of the Palácio de Cristal come into view, historically laid out, with fountains, paths and a view of the Douro. After lunch the day climbs up to the cathedral, a Romanesque complex on the hill with a rose window and a Gothic cloister. Between the two stops there is room for benches, breaks and quiet conversations.
Day 3: Day 3: Group day. A cable car takes you to the Jardim do Morro in Vila Nova de Gaia, on whose hill a palm grove offers sunny spots. Later comes the Jardim do Passeio Alegre with fountain, Franciscan convent and tiled terrace near the sea. To finish, you climb step by step up the Torre dos Clérigos, where the view over rooftops and river awaits at the top.
Day 4: Day 4: Shared day. The Igreja dos Clérigos shows baroque splendour with a marble altar, and its tower shapes the skyline of the city. A few streets further stands the Palácio da Bolsa, which can be visited on a guided tour. Both buildings lie close together in the city centre, and the day gets by with short distances and plenty to talk about on architecture.
Day 5: Day 5: Exchange and exploration. Along the Ribeira on the bank of the Douro, colourful façades, arcades and cafés crowd together, and by day the district is lively and manageable. Afterwards the World of Discoveries leads through the age of the Portuguese seafarers, with museum, themed ride and restaurant under one roof. While marvelling and comparing, the exchange almost happens by itself.
Day 6: Day 6: Travelling safely. This day returns to three favourite places, with more calm and a sharper sense of direction: Palácio de Cristal in the morning, Livraria Lello around midday, the cathedral in the afternoon. Those who now feel confident in the city go a stretch alone, while others prefer to stay accompanied. The routes are bright, busy and easy to find.
Day 7: Day 7: Last day and departure. One last visit to the Jardim do Morro: the cable car takes you up, benches under the palms invite you to linger, and the view falls on the bridge and river that became so familiar in the days before. Here you write postcards, exchange contacts and record what you have experienced before heading to the airport.
