    Fun experience

    This was so much fun and very safe. The young people who run it are professional and attentive. There are many steps to go to the top but everything is run at your own pace, no rush. The views at the top are worth it.

    Steep climb up the stairs...

    Steep climb up the stairs underneath the bridge. It is very safe, and after walking around Porto for a couple days, was not too challenging of a climb. The guide is with you, paying attention to what everyone is doing, answers questions, takes pictures. Good, friendly people.

    Great climb!

    Found this during a stop in Porto. The staff are awesome -they help you get into your gear and make sure everything is safe for you before you climb. Leonore was our guide that day and she was awesome. She explained all the safety rules and made sure all of us were comfortable during the whole experience. The views are beautiful and you're done in an hour, tops. Thanks for a great experience! :)

    Une manière originale, fun et mémorable de voir Porto

    Samsha_F, Oct 2026
    Je l’ai faite seule et j’ai passé un excellent moment. La guide était chaleureuse, drôle et attentive à tous les besoins. Le groupe était très sympathique, ce qui a rendu la montée encore plus agréable. Une fois en haut, la vue sur le Douro est fabuleuse. Et puis la petite coupe en chocolat avec le porto ginjinha avait un goût particulièrement bon… sûrement parce que le cadre rendait l’instant encore plus spécial !

    Unforgettable experience
