According to writer Miguel Esteves Cardoso “The North is more Portuguese than Portugal”.
Our proposal is a dive into the best of the north of this country that Fernando Pessoa called a “planted garden by the sea”. Passing through the founding city of the country, and the terraces of the monumental Douro Valley, we arrive at the modern spas of the ancient baths of Trás os Montes region.
This journey takes us to a Portugal where time doesn’t count, where the palaces and castles are from other times, where the forests and springs are pure and untouched, where the legends and people are genuine and the luxury and wellcoming is the tradition.
Untouched in its identity, the city of Porto is the “Capital of the North”. From the Port Wine cellars to the contemporary architecture of Siza Vieira, from the Michelin Stars to the Harry Potter’s Lello & Irmãos Livraria, the city breathes culture.
If the North of Portugal is where you can take your time, without rushing and with pleasure in every sense, Porto is where you should take your time, to let yourself be conquered.
We have a program specially designed to take advantage of all this and even tailor it to your needs.
