Porto Azulejada Fair Tour: All that glitters
BELLEZA EN CADA ESQUINA. OH! Tours nace a principios del año 2020 en la ciudad de Porto, y desde aquí lo entendemos como una empresa basada en buscar, descubrir y compartir con el viajero la belleza de esta ciudad. Y aquí hablamos de toda la belleza de la ciudad: más allá del centro existe un Porto Decó, Brutalista, Moderno y alucinante. En el centro, no sólo de casas de colores vive el viajero: te contamos las historias más desconocidas mientras descubres las calles más estrechas y los rincones más antiguos, mientras –estamos seguras– suspiras ‘¡OH! ¡Porto!’. Lo habrás adivinado bien: nuestro santo patrón es el señor Stendhal.
