Description:

As the sun sets, the lights that adorn Porto’s monuments, streets, and avenues begin to dance. Combine a bus tour of this illuminated city with dinner in a traditional Portuguese restaurant. Live fado (traditional guitar) music and folk dancers entertain you as you indulge in tasty local cuisine.

Your tour begins by night as your guide tells you about the city’s history, explaining how it became both the second-largest in Portugal and a UNESCO-listed World Heritage Site. See monuments like the impressive City Hall and the Clérigos Church—a Baroque church built in the 1700s with a 248-foot (75.6-m) bell tower, as well as the famous azulejo (blue tile) panels at the São Bento Railway Station.

Explore Porto’s streets and avenues as you pass by the Dom Luís Bridge, which spans the Douro River between Porto and nearby Vila Nova de Gaia. Admire several other lamplight bridges by the riverside before heading to Ribeira, Porto’s port district.

Then it's time to sit back and enjoy a traditional Portuguese evening. Savor the rich flavors of your authentic meal as you enjoy a traditional folk show, with a live band strumming the sounds of fado accompanied by colorfully-costumed dancers.
