1. Start the e-bike tour from the meeting point, near Trindade subway station2. Starting the tour we will be passing right in the heart of Porto, Avenida dos Aliados, in the direction of the river Douro.
3. Then the travelers will be able to see the Palacio da Bolsa and the Hard Club. You will also know about one of the most important Portuguese personalities related to the exploration of the oceans.
4. Pass by Igreja de Sao Francisco, an impressive Gothic church down by the river area.
5. See the Farol-Capela de S. Miguel-O-Anjo. Almost unnoticeable lies this small structure, being the first renaissance building in the entire country and even one of the oldest in Europe.
6. Stop at the fortress Sao Joao Baptista, an impressive structure down by the meeting point between the river Douro and the Atlantic Ocean.
7. Enjoy the ocean view and the environment surrounding you at beach do Molhe, before starting to head back to the inner city again.
8. Pass by the Parque da Cidade do Porto. The only city park with a direct connection to the beach. This is an idyllic place, with two lakes, gooses and the migrating birds that visit the area from time to time
9. Pass by the Jardim da Rotunda da Boavista. If you had no clue that Napoleon ordered the invasion of Portugal during the Napoleonic wars, here is your chance.
10. For the last stop, see the Igreja de Sao Martinho de Cedofeita. Considered the oldest church in the city, it is not entirely sure as to when it was built. Historians suggest that it might have been build around the 5th or 6th centuries. The one that you can see today tho, dates back to the ending of the 11th century.
