Airline and direct flight

Best time to visit
Porto is worth visiting year-round. Spring (April–May) and autumn (September–October) offer pleasant weather without peak-season crowds or high prices. November to February is quieter with frequent deals, though days are shorter. Avoid July and August if you're chasing low fares.
What to do in Porto
The Douro riverfront is essential, with its old buildings and views from Clérigos Tower. Tour the port wine lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia, taste custard tarts at Livraria Lello, explore the historic centre (Unesco World Heritage), and relax at Vidago thermal baths. The airport is 10 km north, well connected to the city.
