Traveler reviews
Amazing Experience
Wonderful and informative experience. Both guide and driver were very professional, friendly and informed. A must do for all visitors.
Must do trip if you have time from Porto!
Great trip, very knowledgable guide in Mario, with lots of stories to tell! Costa Nova was very pretty and had just enough time to have a little wander around. Aveiro was good and little boat ride was enjoyable, probably needed another half hour there though!
A great whistle stop tour
Great snapshot trip to see these two places. It's an hour each way on the minibus. We didn't bother with the boat trip so we had more time in Aveiro to wonder. Our tour guide was knowledgeable about the area.
Great morning !
We had a great morning with Bernardo as our guide, we went on the traditional boats and saw the colorful houses that were very pretty. Recommend !
Informative and Enjoyable
Tour Guide Cuber and our driver Rui were both excellent on this tour of Aviero and Costa Nova. A lot of information packed into the tour. Note, the moliceiro is not included in Viator price. It is well worth buying g it from guide.
