SMT MTS A (Matosinhos A) - A Land of Fishermen and Sailors
Matosinhos is a city since ever deeply connected to the sea. Known for its very authentic fishermen community, it´s a place with a lot to see and to get to know besides the coast and the beach it self. It´s still surprising how such an interesting place, so near from Porto, is still so much “out” of the touristic circuits.
Find more about:
what´s the real name of the “Anémona”sculpture, what´s a “mamarracho”, what was the former name of Matosinhos, the connection between Matosinhos and the portuguese land of opportunities in the XIX century:Brasil, the legend of the roman man that rided his horse into the sea, among many other relevant aspects of Matosinhos and Portugal history, culture, society and ecology.

SMT5 (Vitória B) - What other victories hides Vitória?
Vitória forms what can be considered a very significant part of the city heart. In this area of Vitória you can find several of the city traditional trade and shops. Also some of the most known monuments but this side of Vitória is much behind that … there are secrets and stories hidden in places that most part of the population passes trough every day without knowing or noticing … this Tour is an invitation to get to know several of them.
Find more about:
Where´s the old road connecting Porto and Santiago, the “Fearless General”, the court of justice standing in the place that used to be a … surprise!, the bakeries square, what´s a “mamarracho”, the oldest café in the city that is not the oldest café in the city and the oldest café in the city that is indeed the oldest café in the city, where´s the smallest house in Porto, where´s “Jardim de João Chagas” ? - the question that 99% of the locals will not know to answer, why Portugal entered on the I World War, among many other relevant aspects of Porto and Portugal history, culture, society and ecology.
