Portugal’s second city is a dreamy blend of cobbled streets, bold blue tiles, and riverside wine cellars. If you’ve only got a weekend, Porto makes it easy to fall in love—fast.
Start at São Bento Station, where scenes of Portuguese history are told through 20,000 azulejos (blue tiles). Walk to Ribeira, Porto’s colorful waterfront, for a coffee with a view.
Then cross the iconic Dom Luís I Bridge to Vila Nova de Gaia for a tour and tasting at a Port wine cellar. Try Taylor’s or Graham’s—you’ll thank us later.
Dinner? Go for francesinha—a decadent sandwich smothered in beer sauce, ham, steak, and melted cheese.
Sleep in, then brunch at Zenith Brunch & Cocktails. Explore Livraria Lello, the stunning bookshop that inspired parts of Harry Potter. Walk it off by climbing Clérigos Tower for panoramic city views.
End your escape with a sunset at Foz do Douro—where the Douro River meets the Atlantic. Order waffles and espresso at a seaside café and soak it in.
Porto might be compact, but the memories are extra large.
