PHOTOGRAPHY
Guess what… this tour includes a photography workshop, very flexible, from beginners to advanced level.
Early morning light can be exceptional, but if we find ourselves surrounded by fog, we can do some moody b&w photos. Using a telefoto lens, the endless sequence of little houses will turn into compressed layers. The train station and the market are places not to miss, perfect to shoot in black & white as well. Late afternoon warms the colours and the eclectic buildings, perfect to find some stunning views over the city.
Night photography will be mostly around the river side, with a tripod, composing from Gaia to Ribeira and vice-versa.
Some highlights:
- Bolhao Market (Sunday closed)
- Sao Bento train station
- Porto skyline and Douro river from Gaia

TIMING
This photography tour consists of one afternoon, one evening/night and one morning. They will happen in sequence with one overnight, so we need two consecutive days. We will start at 14:00 on day one and end around 12:00 on day two.
MEETING
We will meet on day one at 14:00 in front of the Clerigos Tower, a Porto landmark easy to spot. You will see me with a LISBON PHOTO id-card. From that moment on, our Porto adventure will flow easily. The next meetings (night tour, morning tour) will be planned together.
MOVING
We will walk all the time and that is the beauty of Porto. Being so compact, it allows to walk in a relaxed way and still see the best of it. We will actually leave Porto and walk to Gaia, which stands at the opposite side of the Douro river.
COMPANION
Your companion will enjoy our time together and also make part of the adventure. Even with a smartphone, photos can be amazing. As we get lost inside the oldest areas in Porto, the list of “places to explore” is endless, your companion will have the best time ever.
HISTORY & LIFESTYLE
The history of Porto goes back to the foundation of Portugal. We will see some pieces of the medieval wall that was defending the city, a middle age cathedral and some of the old districts that need urgent attention. The Port wine cellars are interesting to talk about. They are all outside Porto, in Gaia. You and your companion will listen to the right amount of info and… our meals will be from another planet!
