Trip Itinerary

Stop #1 – Loja dos Pastéis de Chaves

The day begins with a warm flaky pastry of Chaves. A savory or sweet-tasting (your choice) that will provide you with the energy and curiosity to start your exploration of Porto.

Stop #2 – Bolhão Wine House

Soak in the energy of the market while enjoying some traditional and amazing sardines paired with a glass of Portuguese wine.

Stop #3 – Confeitaria Moura

Since 1892 Moura family has held the recipe to a unique pastry: Jesuita!

Stop #4 – Taxca

Savor this locals-only spot with a cured pork sandwich and a glass of the oh-so-typical espadal.

Stop #5 – Fábrica da Picaria

Grab a glass of their home-brew and pull up a chair to enjoy the ambiance of this craft beer brewpub. This place is part of our Craft Beer & Food Tour, and here you'll taste a very traditional "Bifana", one of the main sandwiches in the country, enjoyed from north to south, paired with a cold beer.

Stop #6 – Oficina dos Rissóis

Today is your lucky day since you'll try a Portuguese favorite: rissol.
