Creator's Key Takeaways

the confession here is that we're finding that portal is so much Nic list it's beautiful

this is the best meal we've had I'm about to go for it

the tower walk was at 35 it was a lot the steps are a lot because they're shallow

do not if you're on the Porto side and you take the rubber creu across and you decide to take the five for five with all the drinks remember you have to make it across that bridge

Creator's Tips & Advice

Come early to the river cruise side to see things in daytime
Wear good shoes because you will be doing a lot of walking
Try to get snacks near the river instead of full meals to save money
