Overview

Discover two of northern Portugal’s most elegant historic towns on a private full-day tour from Porto through Ponte de Lima and Viana do Castelo.

With a licensed driver-guide, begin in Ponte de Lima, Portugal’s oldest charter town, where the Roman and Medieval Bridge, riverside views, noble squares, churches, towers and local traditions reveal the calm beauty of the Minho region.

Shape the late morning with an optional Vinho Verde experience, selected separately after booking, before enjoying flexible lunch time in town.

In the afternoon, travel to Viana do Castelo for the unforgettable Santa Luzia viewpoint above the city, river and Atlantic coast, followed by a compact walk through the historic centre.

A private, graceful and beautifully paced day for travellers who want riverside heritage, Minho culture, Atlantic views and authentic northern Portugal in one experience.
