WOW Porto, also known as the World of Wine, situated in Vila Nova de Gaia, just across the Douro River from Porto’s historic center, WOW is a modern cultural complex housed in renovated Port wine warehouses.
The complex features seven museums, twelve restaurants and bars, a wine school, and a variety of shops. It’s a space designed to highlight wine, culture, and Portuguese heritage, offering something for everyone to explore and enjoy.

The Wine Experience takes visitors on a journey through the winemaking process, from the vineyard to the bottle. Interactive displays and sensory activities provide an accessible introduction to wine, focusing on how soil, climate, and grape varieties shape the final product.

At the end of the museum, visitors can participate in a guided tasting of Portuguese wines. This is an opportunity to learn about the country's diverse wine regions and discover your own preferences.
Another highlight is Planet Cork, a museum dedicated to Portugal’s role as the world’s largest cork producer. Visitors can learn about the sustainable harvesting of cork and its many uses beyond wine stoppers.
For those with a sweet tooth, the Chocolate Story dives into the history of cocoa and chocolate production, complete with a tasting to round off the experience.

Between museum visits, take a moment to relax on the upper-level terrace. It offers breathtaking views of the Douro River and Porto’s iconic skyline, as well as plenty of seating to enjoy a meal, a glass of wine, or a cup of café duplo or galão.
Whether you’re here for a deeper understanding of wine, a family outing, or simply to enjoy the scenery, WOW Porto offers a blend of culture, history, and leisure in one convenient location.
