Embark on the Porto's Legacy: An Audio Odyssey through Time and Triumph

A thunderclap once echoed off Porto’s twin spires as revolutionaries plotted under rain-soaked eaves—this city’s stone heart beats with buried secrets. On this self-guided audio tour, wander twisting lanes and lofty towers where stories hide in plain sight. Find the tales behind grand facades and ancient stairways most visitors rush past.

Who risked their life to ring Clérigos Tower’s bells in a night of open rebellion? What silent pact binds Porto Cathedral’s cloisters to forbidden whispers after dark? Which forgotten scandal at the bustling Ribeira changed the city’s destiny forever?

Move from sunlit plazas to shadowy alleyways, feeling centuries of ambition, betrayal, and hope beneath your feet. Let legends leap from every carved doorway and echo along the old stones.

Turn the corner. Listen closely. The real Porto waits just behind its famous walls—your journey begins now.
