Overview

Lose yourself through the narrow cobbled streets, Art Nouveau buildings, and tile panels in the typical Beira-mar neighborhood with an experienced guide.

Find out why Aveiro is the Portuguese capital of Art Nouveau and what the famous "marnoto" does.

Taste the typical sweets in a place with more than a hundred years of experience making the most genuine and famous “ovos moles”.
Here you can also see the beautiful Mercy Church, the City Hall, and the statue of an important “Aveirense” – José Estevão.

Before enjoying the long-awaited moliceiro ride, we will give you a colored ribbon to put on the famous "Friendship Bridge" . You will leave your mark forever in Aveiro! :)

In the end, enjoy a beautiful shared moliceiro boat tour. To come to Aveiro and not to go on a “moliceiro”, is like going to Rome and not seeing the Pope.
