Depuis Porto : Aveiro, passerelles de Paiva, pont suspendu et déjeuner

This is a great value trip, Arouca for the suspension bridge and walkways, Costa Nova for the beach and fishing houses, and Aveiro for some charming town experiences - including the chance to try Ovos Moles. We had an amazing guide in Ricardo, who gave us lots of his knowledge and was friendly and helpful throughout. Highly recommend this trip

An incredible walk with breathtaking views, we did so much in this fun packed day. Ricardo was excellent from start to finish. He provided lots of recommendations for local activities, places to eat and photo opportunities. He though of everything from providing us with sample pastries and expressos to finish our lunch off to handing us a ribbon to make a wish at the bridge in Aveiro. He was the perfect balance of fun and relaxed. Thank you Ricardo! We'll let you know if our wishes come true.

The tour definitely had a lot of potential. I loved the suspension bridge and the walkways, but the Costa Nova time was too short. I also felt like the tour guide was not as knowledgeable about what made Costa Nova and Aveiro unique, and why it was worth going. We also didn’t receive enough recommendations to really take advantage of the two towns, felt too open, for someone who’s never been there before. Therefore it felt like we spent more time in the van, rather than the towns. The lunch was incredible. We also couldn’t hear the tour guide while sitting at the back of the van, so the tour guide wearing a microphone may be better. We also had passengers who didn’t speak English, and the tour guide didn’t use Google Translate to try to accommodate those guests. Overall, the first part of the tour before lunch was excellent, but the second half after lunch was pretty dull. I would’ve been fine with ending the tour after lunch. Perhaps Costa Nova and Aveiro should be left for a separate tour in order to understand and explore those better. Additionally, it will be helpful for the tour guide to be more knowledgeable about all the locations we are going to, as this tour wasn’t cheap.

We had a great day in Aveiro and the walkways and bridge were stunning! Thanks to our driver and guide Ricardo we learned about the environment and he was really entertaining. It was a small group of 8 people so we did not have to wait long to go to the next stop.

The whole day was full with exciting new experiences to enjoy. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. The morning walk was lovely … the suspension bridge scary but exhilarating. The walk down the valley was beautiful, and all downhill. There are a lot of steps though and I felt like I was getting dizzy with them all but the views are worth it. Lunch was great and there was a lot of it. The trip to the seaside resort was lovely and the beach to die for. It is a real pity we did not get to stay longer here. The final destination, the little ‘Venice’ was also very charming. All in all, a very good day out!

Joao (Costa) was our fabulous guide on this trip. A superb bridge walk and hike, then on to an interesting canal ride through the history of Aveiro.

We had a great time exploring towns outside of Porto! Our guide, Costa, was THE BEST!! We enjoyed learning about Portugal and all of the places we experienced. Costa was a wonderful Portuguese ambassador!!!

We had a very well organized trip by a good guide

Thank you, Ricardo, for the wonderful trip. We enjoyed everything very much. Everything went perfectly – punctuality, transportation, and the food was delicious. We were there as a family and felt we were in good hands with Ricardo. Thank you for the great insider tips.

Great day full of adventure. Amazing views, beautiful landscape. The suspension bridge, walkways, and city stops were all great!
