SMT2 (Sé A) - A Porto already from the “Iron Age”

Sé do Porto area can be, in several aspects, together with S.Nicolau, considered the place where Porto was actually born, and there we can find some of the oldest archeological findinds in concern to the city history. Therefore it´s just sort of impossible to get to know about Porto identitity without “diving” in the many narrow streets and secrets from Sé do Porto.

Find more about: Why was the romanic style so important in the beginning of the portuguese nationality. The fleet going on the cruzades to Jerusalém that was conviced to stop in Lisbon to take the city from the moors. A Porto from the iron age among many other relevant aspects of Porto and Portugal history, culture, society and ecology.

SMT RR (Revolutions) - A Revolutionary Porto , Rebels and Revolutions

All along Portuguese History, Porto has been a centre for several of the intellectual movements and also revolutionary ideals. Many times much more than ideals but actually events. Nowadays many people still don´t have the idea of some of the most relevant historical events that actually took place, so many times, in places where we pass so frequently without realising all the stories and history behind them.

So in this Tour we aim to evoke some several of them while, at the same time, respecting and honoring those that contribute to fight for a better society.


Find more about:

The so relevant 31th of January of 1891. The still so unknown 2th of February of 1927. The size of Porto. What remains can we still find from this several revolts? The memory of the working class movement. The different crafts that exhisted.

Among many other relevant aspects of Porto and Portugal history, culture, society and ecology.

SMT PTT (Porto Traditional Trade) - A Journey into the Porto most authentic soul

Porto is, since its very beginning, known as a city of trade and of traders. Its universe of traditional shops is very rich and unique, in spite of the fact that many of these unique places have been closing specially due to the city gentrification and “modern” models of consumption. This tour goes throught a relevant circuit where it´s still possible to see some excellent examples of this traditional trade and experience Porto´s most authentic identity.

Find more about:

What´s a “colonial” grossery shop. The importance of Bolhão Market. What are the areas with still more traditional shops among many other relevant aspects of Porto and Portugal history, culture, society and ecology.

Also along many centuries Porto´s main way of communication with the Portugal north region but also the starting point for longer dangerous trips between Porto and other nations, mostly the main trading centers.
