What Will You Do

  • There are six magnificent bridges that join the two banks of the Douro River. Have fun on the Six Bridges Cruise and get to know them – Luís I, Infante, Dona Maria, S. João, Arrábida and Freixo – from the oldest to the most modern. Enjoy the trip and observe the main points of interest that the view allows to reach: Ribeira Historic Area. S. Francisco Church . Stock Exchange Palace. Porto Customs House (Alfândega) . Port Wine Museum . Massarelos Church . Arrábida Bridge . Foz do Douro. Afurada
  • The Ponte Dom Luís I is a true icon of the city of Porto and a marvel of 19th century engineering. The Dom Luís I Bridge spans the River Douro between Porto on the north bank and Vila Nova de Gaia on the south bank. Designed by German architect, Téophile Seyrig (1843-1923), a disciple and business partner of French engineer Alexandre Gustave Eiffel (of Eiffel Tower fame), the Ponte Dom Luís I had the longest span of any metal bridge in the world when it was completed in 1886. Originally meant for road traffic, now the upper span carries Line D of the Porto metro and a pedestrian walkway, while the lower deck is for road traffic and pedestrians with no fear of vertigo.
