If you’re planning a trip to Portugal, be sure to visit Porto, the country’s next biggest city. You might best know Porto as the producer of the world-famous port wines – the only type of wine that you can only find in Porto, Portugal.

There are wineries and wine-growers in Porto that allow entry to the public to view how they make their port wines and these also sometimes give free tastes of their wines. Solar Vinho do Porto is one such winery that you can visit during your trip to Porto and you may purchase your wine bottles from them as well. The winery itself has a classic eighteenth century design well worth seeing.

Visiting the city, you would need your own car to allow you to drive through every corner of the place and take your time visiting each attraction. Since a car hire in Porto is not hard to come by, you have access to great-quality car rental services during your stay here.

Among these car hire providers are Auto Europe, Europcar, Alamo, Budget, Thrifty, Sixt, easyCar, Holiday Autos and Economy. You may opt for an online booking to save time and you can go directly to the websites of these car hire Porto providers or you may book through your travel agent.

A unique museum that you might find interesting here is the Museu de David. The museum attempts at tracking down the beginnings of all the famous and infamous Davids back from its religious roots all the way to the present.
