Slow Motion Tours
Slow Motion Tours developes alternative touristic tours and programms with the aim of providing a different way to get to know and get involved into the local realities. Our main focus is in allowing our participants to get to know the local reality in a deep and significant way.
So our tours are not conventional touristic tours. Actually, perhaps, we can´t even call it “touristic tours” but something more like a local experience. They´re focused on social, ecological and cultural aspects, in spite of the fact that history is always a very relevant element. Therefore we guide participants through the less well known side and aspects of Porto.
Eco-Social Tourism by Slow Motion Tours
Eco-Social Tourism is based in several essential aspects:
- The income of the Project is invested in the development of the project it self and part is donated to relevant non-profit projects/organisations.
- The focus is to educate, to experience, to make aware of the local realities, instead of entretaining.
- We work mostly with smaller groups because for us it essential not to have a too big local impact and also to allow a better and deeper interaction between participants.
Slow Motion Tours is developed by Casa da Horta – Cultural Association, a non-hierarquical, a non-profit alternative association/spot based in Oporto Historical Centre and by Terramote351 Project, an independent cultural project based on the development of alternative tourism and social education.
