Overview
Get ready for an unforgettable walking tour through Vila Nova de Gaia, the heart of Port wine heritage and one of the best places to take in Porto’s stunning skyline. We’ll stroll along the Douro River, where breathtaking views unfold at every turn, from historic bridges to colorful tiled neighborhoods.
Along the way, we’ll pause to admire hidden corners of street art, a vibrant showcase of the city’s creative energy, blending perfectly with Gaia’s timeless character. As we explore, you’ll uncover fascinating stories about the centuries-old Port wine tradition, learning how this world-famous drink shaped the culture, economy, and identity of the region.
We’re not just walking, we’re tasting! We will taste some local Portuguese snacks and, for those interested, an optional Port Wine tasting experience for less than EUR 10. It’s a flavor-packed way to experience Gaia’s culture and traditions like a local.
Whether you’re into art, history, food, or just good times, this tour has a little something for everyone.

Things to note
Just a heads-up: You pay for your food and drinks, so bring your appetite and your wallet! Please note that the food recommended on this walk consists of light Portuguese snacks, not full meals. Unlike most wine tastings that can be pricey, get ready to enjoy a flight of port wine for under EUR 10.
