POSITIVELY PORTO
21 February 2024 - 4 Nights
Flying from Belfast
JUST ONE SINGLE ROOM REMAINING
Built at the mouth of the Douro River, Porto built much of its reputation and its fantastic wealth on wine, notably port wine. English wine merchants led the way and even today, many of the well known brands have English names, such as Taylor.
One of the oldest cities in Europe, Porto enjoys an enviable position, cut from the deep Douro Valley, not far from the coast. Its city centre has been justly proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage Centre. Since being discovered by tourism, it is a city packed to capacity in the summer months…but it’s at its best in the off-season, when the crowds have gone and when visiting cafes, restaurants, churches, museums and all sorts of other sites is a delight.
We have a host of excursions planned for you, along with a few optional trips or tours. Let us show you the beautiful region of northern Portugal during our four-day trip.
