Full description

Experience the beauty of Aveiro on a boat cruise in an authentic Moliceiro craft. Stroll through the Beira Mar district on a walking tour with a local guide and take in the lively vibe at the Aveiro Fish Market.

Be welcomed by your local guide at the Freedom Obelisk in the old town of Aveiro. Follow your guide to an iconic Moliceiro boat. Embark on a cruise aboard a colorful ship through the city's waterways.

Glide on an elegant boat and snap pictures of landmarks like the City Council building, a 15th century mill, and the romantic Carcavelos Bridge. Watch the old parts of the city melt into the new as you see the shopping center and a ceramic factory that was converted into a convention center.

Disembark and continue on your walking tour through the narrow streets of the Beira Mar neighborhood that was traditionally inhabited by fisherman and salt workers. Admire the vibrantly colored buildings along the canal.

Make your way to the bustling Fish Market, the Centennial building, and pass by richly adorned Art Nouveau buildings before ending your tour.

The tour was absolutely fantastic. Catarina is extremely knowledgeable and gracious and has a great sense of humor. She shared with us so much of the history and traditions and culture of Aveiro and Portugal. We had already walked around and explored the area by ourselves but doing this tour made the visit to Aveiro a much richer experience. Muito obrigado, Catarina.

Catarina was a wonderful guide and made the tour very fun. She explained a lot of history, including some amusing snippets of it! I appreciated Aveiro a lot more after her tour. The boat ride was beautiful but the boat guide's jokes fell quite flat, like he was rushing through a script he's given a thousand times. The boat ride portion was still worth it though.

Our guide Catarina was amazing, she gave us a wonderful introduction to your beautiful city, she knew Aveiro’s history and culture and shared many highlights. She was very easy to understand and made the tour so interesting and fun. The boat guide, in contrast, was not very informative, and spoke mostly Portuguese.
