What to expect

  1. Aveiro
    Pass by
    Salt marshes, moliceiros and canals are the main appeal images associated with Aveiro. And it is thanks to the centuries-old presence of the Ria that they have the merit of existing.
  2. Pass by
    Peaceful canals, an iodine atmosphere and now beautiful lawns to settle on, Aveiro has decidedly everything at his disposal to make our visit a pure moment of serenity.
  3. Pass by
    The Fonte Nova area, where you are walking right now, is considered one of the newest areas of the city. And the modern buildings around you are a good indicator of that.
  4. Pass by
    Aveiro, a small town? It all depends on what! Yeah, to visit it. But to hold a cathedral, that, certainly not. And I wanted to show you that.
  5. Museu de Aveiro / Santa Joana
    Pass by
    If all the attractions on our itinerary are intended to teach you a little more about the destination, it is certainly the one that will do it best.
  6. Pass by
    Since the separation of state and church, obtained at the end of the Salazarist dictatorship in 1976, Portugal is officially a secular state.
  7. Pass by
    In the immediate vicinity of the canals and conveniently located in the historic heart of Aveiro, Praça da República sees locals and tourists pass through its calçada portuguesa soil, characterized by this traditional mosaic of black and white cobblestones.
  8. Pass by
    Coming to Aveiro and not tasting the moles, that is an unforgivable mistake. In comparison, it’s a bit like going to Lisbon and ignoring the pasteis de nata. You get the idea.
  9. Pass by
    What gondolas are in Venice, moliceiros are in Aveiro. In short, a flagship symbol and tourist showcase of the destination.
  10. Pass by
    Before and during your visit to Aveiro, you will never cease to hear that the city has something to remind Venice of from certain angles.
  11. Ponte Lacos de Amizade
    Pass by
    Romantic, historical, colourful, flat or domed, the Aveiro bridges add a personal touch to the crossing of the canals.
  12. Pass by
    Spreading its canals among the houses, like tentacles of water, the Ria is inseparable from Aveiro. It’s simple, without it, the tour itinerary would not look the same at all.
  13. Pass by
    It is there, gracefully laid in the middle of a road in calçada portuguesa, whose mosaic of stones draws waves, that you come face to face with the religious building of the Beira Mar district.
  14. Pass by
    In our tour itinerary, a tour through the Beira Mar district, historic center of Aveiro, is more than fundamental. Within it, or close to it, is the majority of the city's iconic tourist attractions.
  15. Praca Humberto Delgado
    Pass by
    Visiting Aveiro really doesn’t take much effort. On the one hand, the city is flat. And that, in Portugal, is a rather rare quality. And by two, she's small.
  16. Antiga Capitania do Porto de Aveiro
    Pass by
    On the left, right, and even on the Ria, yes, the monuments of Aveiro are everywhere. And at the same time, for this linear building, almost on the surface of the water, it could hardly have been otherwise.
  17. Forum Aveiro
    Pass by
    In the historic alleys of Aveiro, it visits, by the canals, it walks and here, by the docks, it buys.
  18. Ponte Lacos de Amizade
    Pass by
    Along the sea and delicately installed on the Ria lagoon area, Aveiro is strongly marked by the presence of water.
