SMT1 (S.Nicolau) - Around the Douro River and its secrets  
S.Nicolau is for sure one of the most ancient and historical districts from Porto historical centre. The narrow and some of the medieval streets from S.Nicolau tell a lot about Porto identity, developed in a very deep connection with the Douro River.  
Find  more about: The story behind the last “gate” from the “Fernandina” Wall still remaining, who was the local hero “Deocleciano Monteiro”? the disaster of “Ponte das Barcas”, the many stories hidden in the waters of the “Douro River”, why Porto was so essential as a Port, what “they” don´t tell you about Infante D.Henrique …  among many other relevant aspects of Porto and Portugal history, culture, society and ecology.

SMT PRR (Porto Rebels & Revolutions) - A Revolutionary Porto , Rebels and Revolutions 
All along Portuguese History, Porto has been a centre for several of the intellectual movements and also revolutionary ideals. Many times much more than ideals but actually events. Nowadays many people still don´t have the idea of some of the most relevant historical events that actually took place, so many times, in places where we pass so frequently without realising all the stories and history behind them.  
So in this Tour we aim to evoke some several of them while, at the same time, respecting and honoring those that contribute to fight for a better society.  
Find more about:  
The so relevant 31th of January of 1891. The still so unknown 2th of February of 1927. The size of Porto. What remains can we still find from these several revolts? The memory of the working class movement. The different crafts that existed.  
Among many other relevant aspects of Porto and Portugal history, culture, society and ecology.
