Additional Information

Aveiro, nestled between the sea and an estuary, is intertwined with a network of canals traversed by traditional moliceiros. Previously used to collect seaweed, these boats now ferry sightseers. Noteworthy Art Nouveau structures decorate the canal, and Ílhavo, a seaside city housing the renowned Vista Alegre porcelain factory, lies along the estuary.

Situated on the Mondego River, Coimbra is celebrated as the city of academia, and it holds the distinguished title of World Heritage Site. It is the birthplace of six Portuguese kings and hosts the country’s inaugural university, one of the most ancient in Europe.
