Package Description:

Life in Porto moves to the gentle rhythm of the river, where color, craftsmanship, and history converge. A private residence in the heart of the city provides a polished and welcoming home base, surrounded by landmarks that define Porto’s character. Cobblestone streets lead to the vibrant Ribeira District, while blue-and-white azulejos shimmer inside São Bento Station. From the stone walls of Porto Cathedral to the iron span of the Dom Luís I Bridge, each turn reveals another layer of the city’s past.

A private cruise along the Douro offers a slower vantage point, where terraced hillsides, historic cellars, and riverfront façades glide by. Local wines, port, and chocolates accompany the journey, reflecting flavors shaped by the region itself. Evenings settle into an easy cadence of quiet streets, glowing views, and the enduring charm of Porto experienced with intention and ease.

Experience Includes: 

• Five-night stay in a modern private residence in central Porto
• Two-hour private Douro River boat cruise with wine, port, and chocolates
• One-bedroom, one-bathroom accommodations
• Airport transfers for (2)
