Perhaps a cruise down the Douro River, stopping at wineries for tastings. To see Porto at its most joyous book a stay over the Feast of São João on June 23. Bordering the mouth of the River Douro in the elegant, breezy neighbourhood of Foz, it’s about ten minutes from the city centre by car. The majority of the port lodges have port wine tasting where you can compare ruby, white, tawny and vintage ports as well as learn about its fascinating history. Set on the banks of the Douro River in Vila Nova de Gaia, this impressive interactive museum has something for everyone.
