More information about the programme
About Porto
Porto was recently considered the best European destination in 2014.
It's a Portuguese city located in Northwest Portugal.
The metropolitan area is constituted by 17 adjacent municipalities,
which form together a single urban area, with about 1,682,492
inhabitants, making it the largest city in Northwestern peninsular area.
It's a city known worldwide for its wine, the bridges and ancient and
contemporary architecture. Its historic center was considered World
Heritage by UNESCO, for its gastronomy and its main public university,
the University of Porto, placed among the top 350 universities in the
world and among the 100 best universities in Europe.
The region is also served by two major infrastructures: the Port of
Leixões, representing 25% of the Portuguese international trade and
handling about 14 million tons of goods per year, and the Francisco Sá
Carneiro Airport, which is the best airport in Portugal in terms of
terminal space and has been awarded as the world's best in the category
of airports up to 5 million passengers.
A city of Art and Architecture, famous for the Serralves Museum (and its
new Miró collection), designed by Pritzker-winner Siza Vieira, and for
the groundbreaking Casa da Música (House of Music).
Porto is a reflection of the Portuguese spirit of conquer that lead the
country to the Discoveries, home of many illustrious figures: Souto
Moura (another Pritzker-winner from Porto), J. K. Rowling, Manuel de
Oliveira, Guilhermina Suggia, Prince Henry the Navigator and many others.
Today, Porto is one of the main motors of Portugal's creative,
scientific and economical drive, contributing to show the country's
global perspective, cultural importance, tolerance spirit, and position
in the world.
Arriving to Porto
By plane
The Francisco Sá Carneiro airport, was considered, in 2010, by the
Airports Council International (ACI), the second best airport in Europe
in the traffic category and, in 2007, it was considered the best
European airport up to 5 million passengers.
This airport is very convenient due to: the existence of flights to all
European capitals, including low-cost (internal flights to Lisbon can
cost between 10 to 50 euros), and easy access to the center of the city,
through metro, with brief waiting time, good passing frequency, and low
cost -- the trip costs about 2.00€. A taxi ride to the centre costs
around 20 euros.
By train
The city has two train stations. Campanhã is the one where most trains,
including from Lisbon, stop. It's connected to the city center by metro
and by train to São Bento station, which is worth a visit. Fast trains
to Lisbon take between 2h30 and 3h and they stop in cities such as
Aveiro and Coimbra, and close to beaches. There are international
connections to Galicia and Madrid.

restaurants, old façadjoes and museums to visit.
Ferreira Borges Market -- a pearl of the industrial architecture now
hosts the musical and cultural venue Hard Club.

for the boats, now is full of terraces to appreciate the view.
Boat trip -- a one-hour boat trip to discover all the six bridges over
the Douro in Porto and Gaia.
Funicular to Batalha -- Going up from the Riverfront to Downtown can be
exhausting so it's a good opportunity to take the funicular and meet the
Batalha area, also full of monuments.
Café Majestic -- one of the oldest cafés in Porto, its name says it all.
São Bento train station -- Besides its remarkable architecture it's
worth a visit inside to admire the traditional tiled panels that cover
the walls of the vestibule.

can admire the Allies avenue crowned by the city hall.
Port wine tasting
During the walk and boat tour, the participants will make a stop to
taste the beverage that got the city's name. Port is a famous fortified
wine produced in the Douro Valley. It is typically a sweet, red wine,
often served as a dessert wine, though it also comes in dry, semi-dry,
and white varieties.

Sunday, 9 July 2017
Optional Social Programme
Douro Valley -- Wine and Heritage
The route we invite you to join is an unforgettable experience in the
Douro Region and its Vineyards, World Heritage of UNESCO, with the
degustation of regional flavours in a rustic environment, authentic and
breath taking.
The landscape across this journey takes us to an indelible sensation of
flying over the Douro river, enjoying an unique experience as the
vineyards in descending terraces seem to embrace the golden waters.
The voyage continues in a path alongside the Douro that will allow us to
see more interior villages, where the natural beauty still persists in a
multicolour palette of the vineyards, oaks and olive trees. It will be
possible to witness the greatness and depth of the river valley, at an
elevated point, where the landscape that opens in front of our eyes must
be experienced and not described.
