Most of the sights to take in are in the Bolhão neighbourhood and include the picturesque Livraria Lello, the Clerigos Church, the Porto Cathedral and the Bolsa Palace. Take a stroll along the Douro River in Fontainhas to appreciate the city and water views. You can also take a boat ride along the Douro River that takes you under the city’s many famous bridges, including the Luis Bridge, and along the vineyards that produce the city’s famous port wine. Boat tours start either in Ribeira or Vila Nova de Gaia. Speaking of port wine, check out one of the many wine cellars in the Castelo neighbourhood to sample the local product and maybe even catch a fado show.

You absolutely must try a francesinha in Porto, which is the birthplace of the famous Portuguese sandwich consisting of a mix of bread, ham, and sausage steak, and covered with melted cheese and a thick tomato-based sauce.
