Located in northern Portugal, the city of Porto is the country’s second largest city behind the capital of Lisbon, and is a Unesco world heritage site. This charismatic city has a laid back charm, with quaint colorful buildings and cobblestone streets. Here you will find plenty of opportunities to sample a nice glass of port, the famous fortified wine for which the area is known, and accompany your wine with the dining scene that is the culinary capital of Portugal. Spend the week in a beautiful villa in a quiet area outside of the hustle and bustle of the city. The peaceful, relaxing atmosphere will be the perfect base for exploring both Porto and the surrounding areas. Taste the culinary excellence of this region with a private chef, who will prepare a traditional dinner for you right in the comfort of your villa. You will have the unique opportunity to listen to traditional Fado music with a private show during the dinner. Embark on a half day culinary immersion tour of Porto, and spend a full day exploring the Douro Valley with a guide, enjoying tastings at two wineries as well as a delicious lunch!
