Port. Porto, Portugal

If there's one thing it seems you have to do in Porto, it's sample port, and if you head across the iconic Luis I bridge to the southern banks of the Duoro river, this is definitely achievable.  Port houses line the river bank, with a line of flags down the street advertising the names of each, so you'll be thinking "Ah! I know that one!" or "Ooooh, I haven't heard of that one!".  Take your pick and nab yourself a table in one of the lively open air areas, sipping on a port cocktail, wine or just a good, simple port as you watch the comings and goings of Avenida de Diogo Leite with a backdrop of the sparkling river. Find the port houses on the southern banks of the Duoro river, just west of the Luis I bridge.
