Porto and its azulejos: the free walking tour through history and art

The tour lasts 2 hours and 45 minutes
Available in English

Description

The azulejos are the visual heart of Portugal, but in Porto, they are much more than decoration: they are pages of a book written on the walls

In this tour, we will use them as a guiding thread to read the city: history, faith, power, daily life... and those little curiosities that make Porto truly unique.


During the walk, we will cross the symbolic places and the most fascinating streets of the center: between Carmo and Clérigos, the "living room" of Aliados, the atmosphere of Rua das Flores, the liveliest Porto of Santa Catarina (with the iconic Majestic café ), up to two stops that are pure wonder: the Capela das Almas and the area of the Cathedral .


What you take home:

  • Essential Porto with stops at the best spots to understand and photograph the city (views and alleys that tourists often miss).
  • Azulejos: their history, how to recognize them, what they tell, and why they are everywhere.
  • Stories and anecdotes to see the city with different eyes.


This tour is perfect whether it's your first time in Porto or if you already know Porto: the azulejos will make you read the city in a completely new way .
