The experience begins with departure from Porto between 9:00 AM and 9:30 AM, heading for the heart of Bairrada. The first stop is the Macinhata do Vouga Railway Museum (10:00 AM/10:30 AM), located on the only narrow-gauge line still active in Portugal, where old locomotives and artifacts tell the living history of the local railway.

Later, the visit to Pateira de Fermentelos begins at 4:00 PM/4:30 PM, a natural oasis ideal for contemplation, photos, and contact with nature in complete serenity.
Finally, at 5:30 PM, there is an optional stop at Loja da Bairrada (the former Curia station) to taste or purchase wines and regional products before returning to Porto.
