Overview
Take a trip to Porto on your Portugal Vacation
Porto, also known as Oporto, is Portugal's second-largest city, nestled along the Douro River estuary, gracefully extending to the Atlantic Ocean. Its historic centre is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Porto will greet you with an intriguing mix of Art Deco architecture across the several shops, private residences, and buildings throughout the city, including in the enchanting and historic Ribeira neighbourhood packed with medieval streets and alleyways. Walking along the riverfront promenade will immerse you in the charm of pastel-coloured houses and hidden taverns, with views of the iconic port lodges and distilleries across the shore.
The city's vibrant epicentre for dining and entertainment, Ribeira springs to life during the evening, when you'll discover a trove of bars and restaurants, each with its unique character and culinary delights underneath medieval arches.
Take a glimpse of Porto's spiritual heritage at the awe-inspiring Gothic masterpiece, the Igreja de São Francisco, a church boasting an interior adorned with mesmerizing baroque treasures. Discover the church museum's fine collection of sacred art and the catacombs, a resting place for notable Porto citizens.
Nestled within the expansive and meticulously maintained Serralves Park is the Museum of Contemporary Art, a treasure trove of creativity from the late 1960s to the present day. The nearby pink Casa de Serralves invites you to explore a fascinating world of artistic expression, including exquisite Art Deco design.

ExcellentBased on 5,304 ReviewsWe booked a Goway tour to Botswana and Zimbabwe and it was excellent. We worked with Brooke, the Goway represntative, to set up the tour and she was an outstanding agent who answered any questions we had very quickly and completely. Her hotel recommendation for the additional night we stayed was pefect.
Goway hires a local tour group, Jenman Safaris, to lead the safari in the 2 countries. The tour itself was amazing...the lodges that we stayed at were very nice and the food was great (except for one lodge's food). The Goway itinerary was slightly different than the actual Jenman Safari itinerary but most of the sites that we went to were the same as listed on the Goway itinerary. I would use Goway again because their choice of a local tour group was very good...nice lodges/camps and good food and knowledgeable tour guides.Ma FaOur GoWay tour representative, Michael Keon, was on top of all of our concerns and questions in a professional manner and we look forward to working with him in the future. Michael was very easy to work with and treated us like family.ThomasMatthew handled my honeymoon couple's very specific African itinerary like a pro! My clients went to four different travel agents who only wanted to send them on safaris. My clients had already done safaris and were specific on what they wanted to do and see. Matthew hit the nail on the head! Highly recommend!Amanda SchottSeamless prompt excellent communication from our first query about a possible destination to follow-up after the trip ended.JaneJacqueline Fagioli from Goaway Travel is excellent and very helpful and supportive. VenessaOur travel agent, Melissa Moses, created the perfect itinerary for our recent holiday to Portugal. Melissa had also planned our previous trip to England/Scotland. We have a great deal of confidence in her ability as she really listens to what we are looking for and she caters the plans according to our comfort levels and interests. customerJacqueline F. made our trip exceptional. Everything she planned or reserved worked out as it was supposed to. Croatia was amazing and I feel we were able to explore a lot of it because of Jacqueline.AllenThis was the first time we had utilized Goway. We wanted a custom itinerary for a 3 week Italy, Athens and Greek Island adventure. Edwina Brislane was receptive to our goals for the trip, had helpful suggestions and reacted well to our requested revisions. Lisa Dachuk helped "tie a ribbon" on the trip and ensured we had considered all aspects of the experience. Lisa dealt quickly with a couple of requests while on the trip and celebrated a successful trip with us.
We enjoyed working with both Edwina and Lisa. Their knowledge and enthusiasm contributed to our very memorable trip.Dan & GailI had a great experience booking Australia and New Zealand trip through Goway Travel. Lori Mezzoro was very helpful and organized. All the recommendations she made were very good. I had a great trip with my kids.LauraI recently traveled to Greece with friends, and our entire experience was exceptional thanks to the planning support we received from Avery at GoWay. Every part of our itinerary was organized with care, accuracy, and great attention to detail.
Our accommodations — Hera Hotel Athens and Sofitel Athens Airport — were comfortable, well‑located, and exactly what we needed. All airfares from Calgary and the multiple transfers (airport to city centre, city centre to Piraeus Port, and back again) were perfectly coordinated and made the trip completely stress‑free.
The 7‑night Idyllic Aegean Cruise was a major highlight. It was beautifully arranged and gave us an unforgettable way to explore the islands. Our excursions were equally impressive:
Skip‑the‑Line Acropolis & Acropolis Museum timed entry, which made sightseeing smooth and efficient
Classical Greece: Olympia, Delphi & Meteora, a breathtaking and well‑paced journey through some of Greece’s most iconic historical sites
Avery was consistently responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive throughout the planning process. Every confirmation, transfer, and timing detail was handled flawlessly, allowing us to simply enjoy the trip without worrying about logistics.
I highly recommend GoWay Travel — and especially Avery — for anyone planning a trip to Greece. This was one of the best travel experiences I’ve had, thanks to their outstanding service and organization.Lorraine
