Travelling’s great – but who wants to drag bags around? Let’s be honest – as much as we all love travelling, no one enjoys lugging suitcases through the city. Whether you’ve just arrived in Porto or are getting ready to head off, here’s a top tip: start or end your trip at WOW, right in Vila Nova de Gaia.
No stress: free lockers for your bags
Yes, you read that right. WOW has completely free lockers, in various sizes, where you can safely store your luggage. Just set your own code, pop your bags in, and go enjoy everything this cultural district has to offer – hands-free and hassle-free.
The perfect spot for a “first toast” or a “last wander”
If you’ve landed early and check-in’s still a while off, why not kick off your trip with some proper views over the Douro and a wander through one of the coolest places around?
And if you’re flying out later and still have a few hours to spare, WOW is just the spot for a final treat – a glass of wine, a riverside snap, and maybe that last-minute souvenir you didn’t know you needed.
Because WOW’s more than just museums
On top of the free lockers, you’ll find:
Restaurants and bars with panoramic terraces and loads of tasty options
Shops with handpicked Portuguese gifts and goodies
Six immersive museums on themes like wine, chocolate, cork, and more
Events and live entertainment all year round – for couples, families, mates, you name it
Easy access by metro, train, foot or taxi – and if you’re driving, there’s parking too!
So even if you’ve got bags in tow, your visit can start off right – relaxed, sorted, and ready to explore.
