Additional Information

Your personal chauffeur, accompanied by your exclusive guide, will collect you from your accommodation or selected location in Porto and escort you along the south coast to Aveiro. Despite evolving into a lively, contemporary university town, Aveiro retains its essential identity as a fishing port. Its network of canals has earned it the international reputation as Portugal’s Venice.

You will explore its ‘Art Nouveau’ residences situated along the canals and observe the vibrantly hued ‘moliceiros’ boats. The tour cost encompasses a collective boat journey.

Next, you will venture to Coimbra, reckoned as Portugal’s Medieval Capital. It enthralls with a rich historical center, bisected by the Mondego River, and boasts significant structures, medieval places of worship, and Cathedrals. Coimbra is the site of one of the world’s most ancient universities.

Great private tour guide for Porto, Coimbra, Aveiro, and Braga. - Jose’ Luis Ferreira of Porto&Douro Travel, in Porto picked us up at our hotel in Coimbra, drove us to Aveiro where he reserved boat ride tickets for us, gave us a private walking tour of Aveiro, guided us to a great restaurant for lunch, drove us to a beautiful beach town near Aveiro called Costa Nova with short walking tour, then drove us to our hotel in Porto. He drives a smooth, sleek Mercedes sedan. He speaks perfect English. He was very courteous, and professional. He also gave us great suggestions for restaurants and activities in Porto. We will be utilizing him again tomorrow for a tour of Braga. We highly recommend him.
