• Ponte D. Maria Pia - Experience the beauty of the six stunning bridges that link the two sides of the Douro River by enjoying the Six Bridges Cruise!

Recognized as a National Monument, the D. Maria Pia Bridge is a railway structure that spans the Douro River, linking Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. Designed by Gustave Eiffel, it was once the largest iron arch bridge globally and is regarded as one of his finest works.

• Ponte de Dom Luis I - The Ponte Dom Luís I is a true emblem of Porto and a marvel of 19th-century engineering. This bridge stretches across the River Douro, connecting Porto on the north bank with Vila Nova de Gaia on the south bank.
• Ponte da Arrabida - The Arrábida Bridge is an arch bridge that crosses the Douro River, linking Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. Constructed in 1963 to accommodate the growing traffic and provide alternative routes to the older bridges, it boasted the largest reinforced concrete arch of any bridge worldwide at the time.
• Ponte de Sao Joao - The São João Bridge was constructed to replace the D. Maria Pia Bridge, another iconic structure in Porto. It has become a significant landmark in Porto’s skyline and a crucial transport link between Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. During its construction, archaeologists unearthed remnants of a Roman road and a medieval shipyard, offering valuable insights into the area’s history.
• Ponte do Freixo - Opened in September 1995, the Freixo Bridge is a road bridge that connects Vila Nova de Gaia to Porto over the Douro River. Among all the bridges linking Porto to Vila Nova de Gaia, the Ponte do Freixo is the furthest upstream on the Douro River.
• Ponte Infante Dom Henrique - The Infante Dom Henrique Bridge, also known as the Infante Bridge, is a road bridge connecting Vila Nova de Gaia to Porto over the Douro River in Portugal.

Named in honor of Infante Dom Henrique, the main advocate of the Portuguese expansion known as the “Portuguese Discoveries,” who was born in Porto, it is the newest bridge connecting Porto and Gaia.
