From Porto to Coimbra with Aveiro Visit – Half Day
A journey between historic cities with canals, colorful boats and unique scenery!
After pick-up in Porto, the tour begins towards Aveiro, a city known for its waterways, distinctive architecture and close connection to the sea. Often called the “Portuguese Venice”, Aveiro stands out for its colorful buildings and rich natural surroundings.
During the visit, you will enjoy a traditional moliceiro boat tour. These boats were originally used for seaweed harvesting and are now one of the city’s most iconic symbols, decorated with vibrant colors and humorous paintings.
