10 Things to do in Porto, Portugal Travel Guide Video Transcript: (OPORTO)
Lisbon is beautiful, but Porto is magical. We arrived in Porto with our taxi driver’s words still ringing in our ears, and we’re happy to say, the city did not disappoint!
Our time in Porto was spent sipping on Port wine, soaking in the views across the Douro River, wandering through the hilly streets, and marvelling at buildings covered in blue tiles.
In this travel guide, we’re going to share a little bit of Porto’s magic with you, and also show you some of the things you too can see, eat, and drink when you visit Porto!
Known as the Chapel of Souls, this church is covered in tiles that represent moments in the life of Saint Francis of Assisi and Saint Catherine.
This bookstore is a feast for the eyes. The bookstore was even frequented by JK Rowling when she taught English in Porto, and it’s reported to have been an inspiration in her Harry Potter series.
We continued our walk downhill until we reached the São Bento Train Station.
Porto Cathedral is one of the oldest landmarks in the city with cloisters where the walls are covered in blue tiles.
We reached the neighbourhood of Ribeira, which sits right on the shores of the Douro River. This neighbourhood is lined with many sidewalk cafes, bars, and restaurants, so it’s a nice place to rest your legs and do a bit of people watching. Feeling hungry we wandered down some of the back streets until we found a small restaurant serving up local specialities.
We made time for one more attraction: the Church of Saint Francis.
The Bridge we had all been waiting for was Dom Luis the first Bridge, which spans the Douro River. The lower deck carries regular traffic with narrow walkways for those on foot, and the upper deck is reserved for pedestrians and the metro lines.
For the best views of Porto, you need to walk the upper deck!
There was only one thing on our minds: visit one of the many wineries that line this side of the river! We ended up walking into Croft for a wine tasting without need for an appointment, and this turned out to be one of our favourite activities in Porto!
Filled to the brim with port wine, cheese and chocolate, we enjoyed a light stroll along the Douro River, watching the boats bob in the water.
That’s a wrap for our visit to Porto! We hope you guys enjoyed following along and that you got a few ideas for your own trip. If you have any other suggestions of fun things to do in and around Porto, feel free to share those with travellers in the comments below.
This is part of our Travel in Portugal video series showcasing Portuguese food, Portuguese culture and Portuguese cuisine.

Madrid to Valencia Train Ride | Spain Travel Vlog
Join us for a Spain travel vlog as we highlight our train ride from Madrid to Valencia while also giving you a full tour of our apartment in Madrid. With just a short time in Madrid we reluctantly said goodbye to our apartment which was by far the best one we've had to date on this trip in Europe. It was in a great location, was very spacious, had lots of character and most importantly had central heating in the heart of winter which meant we were toasty warm:
Madrid Apartment:
Discount Code:
Upon arriving at Madrid Atocha railway station we quickly grabbed some sandwiches and empanadas for the journey. One thing to keep in mind is that prices were really high near the departures section and considerably cheaper at the far end of the station.
Given this was our first train ride in Europe we were all excited to be taking the train as opposed to being on another bus. Alta Velocidad Española (AVE) is a high speed train that allows you to travel from Madrid to Valencia in just an hour and a half. It tops out at around 300 km during some sections of the ride.
Upon arriving in Valencia we just grabbed a do-it-yourself meal of kebabs, pastries and red wine. We took a little stroll around Valencia afterwards but ended up calling it a day because it started raining. Overall, we're thrilled to be in Valencia and can't wait to explore more on future episodes.

Madrid to Valencia Train Ride + Madrid Apartment Tour | Spain Travel Vlog Video Transcript:
Good morning guys. Time for another travel day. We didn't have much time in Madrid. It was one of the shortest stays we're going to have on this entire trip in Europe. We just had 4 nights but we arrived really late on the first night. So it was basically just 3 days. Time just flew by. We had so much to do and see and yeah we're already hitting the road again. But the good news for at least for us is that we have a shorter travel day today.
Yes, an hour and a half. A little over an hour and a half I believe. We are going to Valencia and we are going on the high speed train I think. Yeah, it is going to be exciting. It is our first train ride on this trip in Europe so yeah we're hoping to be doing more train travel in Italy but our first train ride in Spain.
Okay so before we check out of the apartment in Madrid we're going to give you guys a little as usual.
Yeah, we really liked the apartment. It has a nice big bed. Lots of space. Drawers. And yeah this was this like this apartment scores so highly in so many different ways. Like for first everything that should be working was. Especially in the winter. Having heat was just incredible after being cold in the 1st two Portugal apartments.
The other thing too that was great about this place was the location right? Very central. It was a nice neighborhood and it was really close to what was it Opera Station?
That concludes the apartment tour. We're all packed up now. We're just going to have a quick snack and then it is off to the train station. And wait until you see this train station. I think it is the most beautiful in all of Europe.
Here is to our first train ride in Europe. Salut. Not only train ride. Fast speed. Highs speed train ride. It has got up to 230 km now. I haven't checked for a while but it might even be faster. And we've got wine. Cheers. Our trip is only an hour and a half. We'll be there before we know it. This this kind of train is a high performance gazelle.
So we made it to Valencia, Spain. We're having kebabs for dinner and we'll see you guys in the next episode.
This is part of our Travel in Spain video series showcasing Spanish food, Spanish culture and Spanish cuisine.

Cider is the traditional drink of Asturias in Northern Spain, and it is an important part of the social life.
You will learn how to pour it like the locals do from a great height to allow the cider to breathe during a cider bar crawl. All paired with local tapas at the best cider houses.
After the meal, you will enjoy a relaxing stroll around Ribadesella, an historic fishing port in Northern Spain, now turned into a bohemian coastal town full of charming architecture and a lively atmosphere with plenty of local bars and “sidrerías”, the name for local cider houses.
Enjoy a panoramic walk up to Ribadesella’s lighthouse to contemplate breath-taking views over the ocean and the mountains of Picos de Europa National Park.
A hidden gem, a five-star resort tucked into Asturias’ rolling hills will be the perfect place to relax at the end of an unforgettable day full of emotions.
