TALKIE WALKIE

architectural and cultural tourism

 

Talkie Walkie offers architecture tourism and is based in Porto.
Talkie Walkie's innovative approach to tourism is aimed at those who love architecture and architecture professionals. We do tours in Portugal and abroad.
Each travel is tailor made and unique, helping you discover unusual places in the ways of a flâneur.
At Talkie Walkie we have many years' experience in the fields of art, architecture and education.

 



Taylor Made

Talkie-Walkie believes that a significant part of a satisfying travel begins with its preparation. This way, it's designed together with the client aiming for a wide range of cultural diversity. Together, we travel through unique places in their architecture and landscape where new forms of heritage can be discovered such as food&wine, fashion and music.

The network of contacts with different cultural institutions, artists and architects allows the exclusive and personalised access to buildings and private houses.
For each programme it is conceived a Travel book with learning and technical material.

Venho agradecer a amabilidade de nos ter proporcionado uma visita guiada ao Museu de Serralves e assim termos tido a excelente oportunidade de apreciar as impressionantes obras de Paula Rego e a interessante exposição da americana Susan Hiller. Quero expressar o apreço à Matilde pelo seu profissionalismo e simpatia.

Guided Tours

The North and Porto are already an international brand. From here Talkie-Walkie plans a set of travels from Portugal to Iberian Peninsula. Each tour is inspired on different perspectives that bring (e)motion to the journey. 

   



ARE YOU AN ARCHITECT ?

Ana and Matilde from Talkie-Walkie are both practicing architects, so they speak the language of architecture! Let us know if you are an architecture practice, from a faculty of Architecture, or if you are a group of architects and friends, or if you are just interested in discovering a particular city or building. We can design a tour especially for you, where you can have the opportunity to meet fellow architects, to visit a building site, to have access to plans and models or to have access to private buildings. Each tour is guided by an architect and it can be planned according your expectations and needs.
