POA Guide

Let's get straight to the point: Porto Alegre Guide is made - without propaganda or non-sense information - by locals that travel a lot, and it`s all thought for independent travellers like us. The tips are about how to experience the very best of the city in an honest way - the same tips we give to our personal friends who come to the city - with objective and fun descriptions of each place or activity. Probably our main contribution is our unique selection of bars, restaurants and nightclubs, something that no commercial guide offers: we tell you where to go FOR REAL, with or without money in your pockets.

We know that visitors usually have just a few days to enjoy the city; therefore, our purpose is not to show everything there is to do, but the best options (for all tastes and budgets), focused on the 4 most interesting neighborhoods.

This guide is also a great opportunity for Porto Alegre citizens to experience their own city with visitors' eyes - something that we love to do and recommend to everyone.

The app contains over 70 tips, among activities, parks, cultural and historical attractions, bars, cafes, restaurants, stores and nightclubs. We also bring an essential introduction of cultural aspects and interesting facts about Porto Alegre and the gauchos, information that travellers need in order to better comprehend where they are.

POA Guide App is an outcome of the printed Porto Alegre Guide, launched annualy since 2013, and which is available for free at every touristic information center, hostel and some hotels throughout the city.
