Elevador da Ribeira

Minimal signage at the top. Go through the gate and down, down, down the stairs… when you get to the piss smelling stairs you are close to the elevator. Goes down four flights. You pay €2 at the bottom. Brings you out at the pier. Was a fun adventure but super NOT helpful if you are looking for a way to avoid stairs. Photo is at the bottom where you pay.

A bit dodgy, it could use some love.

Not free anymore, and not very useful to be honest

Yes, this is actually a scenic spot. You can see great view of bridge and river side here. At the right time, you can see the sunset.

Porto is one of the best cities in Portugal because it still shows the traditional side even if it's full of tourists attractions. This point has a amazing view on the canal!

Lovely idea, thinking it would tale us parallel with the top of the bridge. It didn't! An angi a I decided g multi step walk as the buggering lift only tales you half way up.

Nice vista point to view the Douro river and the whole city

If you do not like walking back up the hill to town. This will help but it only goes half so you still have a few step to reach the top 😎. Well worth the trip though
