Aveiro, Costa Nova & Atlantic Coast Small Group Tour

Escape the city and discover the charm of Aveiro, one of Portugal's most picturesque destinations, on this relaxed small-group tour from Porto. Often called the "Venice of Portugal," Aveiro is famous for its scenic canals and colorful moliceiro boats. You will have free time to explore the canals and, if you wish, board a traditional moliceiro boat cruise — an optional experience that can be purchased directly in Aveiro during your free time, subject to availability. Enjoy free time to explore Aveiro at your own pace. Stroll through the elegant streets, admire the city's Art Nouveau architecture, or taste the famous local sweet delicacy, ovos moles. The journey continues to Costa Nova, a delightful seaside village known for its iconic striped houses and beautiful Atlantic coastline. You will also visit the remarkable Church of Válega, famous for its impressive azulejo tile façade, considered one of the most beautifully decorated churches in Portugal. Before returning to Porto, the tour stops at the Chapel of Senhor da Pedra, a unique seaside chapel built on the rocks right by the ocean — one of the most striking coastal landmarks in northern Portugal.
