Top things to do in Porto with a baby

Published on 24 April 2022 at 13:50

Port Caves - this is an absolute must when visiting Porto. We went to Caves Calem and did a tour and port tasting (just a small amount for me given I was breastfeeding O - A was only happy to finish my drinks... O was as good as gold in the carrier looking around until we turned him in for a little nap. https://calem.pt/en/

Crystal Palace Gardens - these are beautiful gardens for a stroll and we even saw peacocks! O being 5 months old wasn't yet on the move but there were a lot of families with children running around so it's a great place to go for kids to let off some steam. We got the bus to and from the gardens which was really easy to do. There were some public toilets in the park which were clean and had baby change facilities.

Ride on the Teleferico de Gaia - it's a short ride but has amazing views and little O really enjoyed it (he was squealing along the way). A one way ticket for an adult is €7 and babies and toddlers are free.

WOW (World of Wine) - this was very new (and quiet) when we went for well worth the visit. We sat outside one of the many eateries and had a glass of wine taking in the views. It's a difficult place to summarise but it basically has restaurants, exhibitions, art, shopping - see for yourself on their website https://www.wow.pt/en

Take a walk along the river - it was lovely just to have a stroll along the river (and the flat) to see the world and boats go by.

Eating al fresco - we had a lovely time just eating out for snacks at small places on the little streets of Porto watching the world go by.
