A good glass of port, the somber sound of fado, and some of the most stunning architecture in all of Portugal – there's no shortage of things to see and enjoy in Porto.

Make the most of your time in Porto and enjoy some essential activities that showcase the best of what the city has to offer.

Cathedral of Porto:

Visit one of the oldest and most beautiful buildings in Porto.

Built in a prime location in the city, the cathedral offers equally breathtaking views inside and out. The building's exterior looks like an old citadel, watching over the city to protect the "cidade invicta" (the undefeated city).

Inside, the central nave and the cloisters offer a mystical experience that can only be rivalled by a unique collection of biblical scenes made from typical Portuguese azulejos.

Douro River Six Bridges Cruise:

Sail under the famous six bridges and pass by famous landmarks of the UNESCO World Heritage city of Porto – port wine cellars, Crystal Palace, and Serra do Pilar Monastery.

Follow the route of traditional rabelo boats as they deliver port wine to Porto and enjoy a cruise down the Douro River.

From the water you can admire the beautiful landscapes and red-roofed houses of Ribeira and Vila Nova de Gaia, the heart of port wine export.

Cálem Caves: Guided Tour:

Want to know more about all that Portuguese wine you're consuming? Take this guided tour of Porto Cálem and get your head (and your lips) around everything you need to know about Port Wine, from the vineyard to the glass. You'll even get a tasting (hic!).

Touch, smell and taste your way through the history of Port and the Douro Valley, courtesy of a local! At Porto Cálem, get the lowdown on how Port is made, tour the historic winery and interactive museum, and explore the cellars – where the good stuff lies in wait to be enjoyed.

Traditional Fado Concert:

15 minutes before the concert, there is a gathering with the musicians where you can learn how they approach fado, and discover the extent to which traditional fado is truly unique.
