It needs two guests and cannot take severe allergies. 4.98 from 342 reviews at €69 per person for 3h 30m. **Best with food:** Four ports in Portugal's oldest cellar plus francesinha, alheira and bacalhau across Gaia's back streets: 4.98 from 342 reviews at €69 per person. Trade-off: Priciest here at €69 per person. (last checked August 10, 2026) ## Overview The 'other side of the river' is something heard every day in Porto, especially among locals. But likely few visitors know what lays beyond the wine caves along the riverside. On this tour, we showcase a non-touristy area full of homemade cuisine and alive with local culture. We'll walk through the winding, narrow streets of Gaia, visit the oldest winery in Portugal founded by King Joseph I and the Marques of Pombal, and discover both “classic” Porto food, such as the francesinha, as well as local secrets like alheira. Each tasting will be paired with local wine or beer. While enjoying the stroll and tastings, you will learn about both Portuguese and regional history, not only from our guide but from the locals that adore to talk and share their experiences, all the while getting the best views over the city of Porto. Don't Miss - when visiting the oldest winery in Portugal you'll get to enter a secret wine cave with aging bottles of port wine that are hundreds of years old. ## Before you book - Meeting point: Cross the bridge and head to the Jardim… - 6 start times: between 09:30 and 13:00 - Food included: 3 more Wines, beer and water, 4 food… - Strollers OK: infants accepted ## Key facts - Price: from €69 per person - Duration: 3h 30m - Rating: 4.98/5 from 342 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Recommended by 100% of travellers (share of four- and five-star reviews) - Operator: Eating Europe Food Tours Porto ## Tour options Prices are the operator's current list price for two travellers (whole euros); options sold only to bigger parties say so; pick the option on the booking page. | Option | Price | Guide languages | Details | |---|---|---|---| | Porto Wine & Dine: Port Wine Cave and Food Tour | €69 / person | English | - | | Private Food Tour | €154 / person (for 2+ people) | English | Extras: 2 galsses of Porto Wine 40y.o. | ## What's included - Local English-speaking guide - 3 more Wines, beer and water - Francesinha sandwich, Alheira, Bacalhau, local pastries and more! - 4 Port Wine Tasting in the oldest Port Wine Cellar - 4 food tastings at 4 different locations ## Not included - Gratuities / Tips for guides - Hotel pick-up and drop-off - Email us or add note to advise of any dietary requirements such as vegetarian and gluten-free diets ## Itinerary 1. **Jardim Do Morro** (10m) - Learn about Gaia at our meeting point and get the best viewpoint of the city. 2. **Get a taste of the Pastry 'culture' of Portugal** (20m) 3. **Tour the oldest port wine cave in Portugal** (45m) 4. **Learn the history of Alheira - and of course get a taste** (25m) 5. **Learn the story of this unusual eatery and taste a local traditional fish, ve...** (25m) - Learn the story of this unusual eatery and taste a local traditional fish, vendor, bacalhau. 6. **View some amazing street art while strolling the city** (5m) 7. **Taste the most famous dish of Porto - the Francesinha - and learn how it is p...** (30m) - Taste the most famous dish of Porto - the Francesinha - and learn how it is prepared! ## Schedule - Runs: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat - Departures: 09:30, 10:00, 10:30, 12:00, 12:30, 13:00 - Schedule last checked: 2026-09-25 - These are published departures, not a live seat count; availability is confirmed at checkout. ## Cancellation For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. ## Meeting point Cross the bridge and head to the Jardim do Morro Park at the end, in Vila Nova de Gaia.
