Description

Experience the beauty of Aveiro on this tour. Meet your guide at our Meeting Point near S. Bento Train Station in Porto and board a comfortable van for your transfer to Aveiro. Immerse yourself in the culture of this former fishing village, where residents once relied on the river, the sea, and salt production for their livelihoods. Start your experience at the fish market square, offering great views of the city center. Then, if option selected, embark on an one-hour cruise aboard a vibrantly painted, traditional Moliceiro boat, gliding through the city's channels. After the cruise, your guide will take you to the Costa Nova neighborhood by the sea, where you can admire the small, brightly colored houses with vertical stripes. Your experience concludes with a return to the city of Porto.
