Accommodation
Porto River Aparthotel
Welcome to Portugal!
Upon arrival at the airport, our driver will be waiting for you at the arrivals' hall to transfer you to your hotel.
In the afternoon, you will explore Porto on a fun and different experience: you will enjoy a sidecar tour along the beautiful
neighborhoods and viewpoints of Porto!
Your guide will pick you up at your hotel, and with him, you will explore Porto through the old neighborhoods of the historical
center. Riding the sidecar, you will be able to get through the narrow cobblestone streets, where you will be able to admire the
building facades and see the evolution of the city from the river up to the hills, from the 1100’s to the 1750’s.
You will start by making your way to Ribeira, the oldest neighborhood in the city, which is located by the river. Here, you will
stop to explore and take photos.
From there, you will follow the river all the way to the ocean, stopping a few times in beautiful viewpoints of the mouth of the
river.
Then, you will head back to the historical centre and start riding up the hill. The ride will always be at a slow pace so that you
can talk with your guide, and he can answer any question that you may have, while you enjoy the ride. There will be lots of
stops for photos and enjoying the views too.
You’ll go through Miragaia and Virtudes neighborhood and stop at Vitória neighborhood to enjoy a beautiful viewpoint in the
middle of the hill.
Then, you will continue up the hill to Clérigos neighborhood, where you will make a quick stop at a traditional café to taste
some sweet and savory traditional Portuguese pastries.
From there, you will cross the historical centre and the bridge to Gaia, the city on the other side of the river. This will be the
icing on the cake, since here you will get the best view of Porto!
