Why Porto for a corporate group?
Porto combines a UNESCO-listed old town, port wine, excellent food and an airport with direct flights across Europe — in a city you can explore on foot. An hour and a half away lies the Douro Valley, the world's oldest demarcated wine region.
Our head office is in Porto and the Ecotravel Group operates Cruzeiros Douro river cruises: this is the destination we know best.
