Final Tour - From Downtown to Dragão

Before we retire this tour, we're off one last time around to cross from the very city centre to Estádio do Dragão, three years ago we did the oppposite route, time to check what remains the same, what has changed and how all this is coming together, but we've added new diverts as well, so it remains fresh and always different.

As a sense of place tour, rather than something laden with commentary, where we trace the layout, the history, the architecture, the sprawl of the city and what being a Portonian across the centuries, here the narrative is different, it's the streets themselves that are in the limelight, well, better said, the lanes and alleys that make the true underbelly of Porto. Though not pedestrianized, they eschew most vehicle traffic, thus making a very pleasant domestic experience, lined by small lots and all sorts of kinks and nooks, some to be expected others not at all. Although the turning of phrase might be interpreted in manifold ways, this is Porto at its most intimate (urban) experience.

Furthermore, the astonishing factor and the most appealing one at the same time, is that these places are located right in the centre of the city.

Will you accept the challenge of trekking, wandering around some of the most charming places of the city under the golden brilliance of the final hours of the day?
