Visit Porto on this day trip and discover its famous bridges over the Douro River and beautiful old town.
Day Trip Details
We will meet at the specified time in front of the Capilla del Pilar, in Santiago, and then head to Porto.
Once in Porto, the tour begins in the historic center. We will explore the area around the medieval cathedral while our guide shares the city's history.
Next, we will visit the São Bento station to admire its Azulejo tile decoration, focusing on the tiles in the main foyer that depict different historical episodes.
We will then proceed to Serra do Pilar, which offers panoramic views of Porto. After this, we will head down to the banks of the Douro River, where you will have 2 hours of free time for lunch. Several restaurants in this area feature terraces with views of the Dom Luís I Bridge.
After lunch, we will enjoy a cruise on the Douro River to admire Porto from a different perspective. This one-hour cruise concludes our time in Porto, and we will return to Santiago de Compostela, arriving at the meeting point 12 hours after pickup.
