Thursday 18th and Friday 19th September
I had decided we would stay in Vila Nova Da Gaia on the opposite bank of the river to Old Porto to make parking easier. That didn't really work out but the Charm Hotel run by the lovely Clara was so awseome we'd definately do it all again.
Bolt and Uber are so reasonably priced in Porto your best option is parking a little way away and getting a ride to your hotel. Drinks with a view only 50m from the hotel.
We had dinner in Afurada. Clara recommended Arazem do Piexe and we had the best meal of our trip so far. Everything in Porto has become more touristy and very busy. We found our happy place, somewhere between it all.
Bolhao Market.
Historic Magestic Cafe.
A bottle of Vinho Verde at a street cafe with live music.
Eating with locals.
Lots of walking and lots of hills and stairs.
In the evening we did a cruise on the river for a different perspective.
We tasted Port.
For dinner, Clara directed us to a small, local Taverna over the road from the hotel.
