Graham’s was a perfect way to spend an afternoon in Gaia. The guided tour through the cellars was well paced. Our guide explained the lodge’s history and how port is made, and walking past the huge barrels was a treat. The tasting in the Main Room was excellent, with a good range of ports and a clear explanation of each one. Don’t rush off afterward, because the view of Porto from the terrace is stunning, especially near sunset. Booking and check-in were easy. Highly recommend.

Itinerary
Explore the 1890 Graham's Port Lodge on a guided tour where you will learn about the history of the cellar, the production process of Port wine, enjoy a premium wine tasting with food pairings, and marvel at spectacular views of Porto and the iconic two-tier bridge. Visit the historic Graham’s Lodge, which was built in 1890 on a commanding ridge in Vila Nova de Gaia across the Douro River from Porto and only a few hundred meters from the river’s south bank. Admire unique and spectacular views of Porto’s historic city center and the iconic two-tier bridge that connects the two cities of Oporto and Gaia. Graham’s is still a working cellar which makes this tour an even more unique experience.
