Known as the "Venice of Portugal", Aveiro is a beautiful coastal town, criss-crossed with canals and retaining its traditional atmosphere. We'll pass through it by foot and by boat.
Aveiro and Costa Nova Day Trip Itinerary
Having picked you up at your hotel or the meeting point, we make our way southwards until we find the beautiful coastal city of Aveiro.
Once in Aveiro, we'll enjoy a delightful tour of its historic centre, and it's likely you'll succumb to the temptation of their local sweet pastries, "Ovos Moles", a light mix of egg yolk and sugar, usually served inside small rice paper cases moulded into the shape of a shell or a fish.
Next, we'll take an hour-long cruise on board one of the traditional "Moliceiros" boats, similar in design to the Venetian gondolas, making the most of a tranquil and unforgettable day.
Having finished the cruise we hit the road back to Porto, finishing the excursion at your hotel, or wherever is convenient for you.
Hotel pick up
When making your reservation, you'll have the choice between adding a pick up service to your tour, with collection from hotels in Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia, or making your own way to the meeting point at the San Bento train station.
