Visit Cálem Cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia for a 1-hour tour with an interactive museum, guided cellar walk, and Port tastings from $23.
“it was very interesting learning how about how the grapes are grown, the climate and terrain of the Douro Valley, the whole process of what defines vintage port wines, the ageing process, the reasons why all the cellars are in Gaia very enjoyable.”
FC Porto Museum and Dragão Stadium tour in Porto: interactive exhibits, Champions League trophies, and pitch plus Presidential Box in 2 hours.
“Admittedly, I had low expectations coming in, but we all walked away in awe of the history and prestige of FC porto. The museum was unbelievable. It is much bigger than I had anticipated and the level of fan interactivity was top notch. This was the surprise hit for our group of 7 travelers. Even the kids enjoyed it and we are all now FC Porto fans!”
