They don't call Aveiro the "Venice of Portugal" for no reason – book tickets for an Aveiro gondola ride through the canals of this alluring Portuguese city and find out why!

Within a short distance of nearby Porto, your Aveiro day trip starts with a guided tour of the city center, where Art Nouveau design is on full display.

After your city tour, become the main character in a fado song and drift on a moliceiro boat cruise through the charming canals of Aveiro. Guided by a local captain, you'll learn about the maritime history of the fishing village and the original use of the moliceiro boat: to collect seaweed to harvest flor de sal. After your boat tour, look for a jar of flor de sal at the boutique shops in town as a tasty souvenir.

Hop on the air-conditioned minibus for a quick jaunt to Costa Nova. Regain your land legs with a stroll on the white sandy beaches where colorful fishermen's houses stand watch for their masters to return from the sea, marked by their distinct vertical stripes in vibrant colors.
