Highlights

Escape the hustle of Porto and discover Aveiro, one of Portugal’s most charming and photogenic destinations, on a relaxed small-group tour. Known as the “Venice of Portugal,” Aveiro is a charming coastal city waiting to be explored. Enjoy free time to wander through its picturesque canals, admire the elegant Art Nouveau architecture and soak up the lively atmosphere of its streets. Taste the famous local delicacy, ovos moles, browse the local shops or, if you wish, take an optional traditional moliceiro boat cruise through the city's scenic waterways. Continue along the Atlantic coast to Costa Nova, a vibrant seaside village known for its iconic striped houses and laid-back coastal atmosphere. Discover one of Portugal’s hidden gems with a visit to the stunning Church of Válega, famous for its richly decorated azulejo façade. Before returning back, stop at the remarkable Chapel of Senhor da Pedra, dramatically set on the rocks by the ocean — a truly unforgettable coastal landmark.

About Porto

Porto tumbles down steep hills to the Douro River, a granite city of tiled churches, riverside cellars and port wine aged across the water.

The Ribeira district lines the riverbank with colourful houses, cafés and boats, part of a UNESCO-listed old centre beneath the iron arches of the Dom Luís I Bridge. Above it, the São Bento station hall is covered in blue-and-white azulejo tiles, the Clérigos Tower rises above the rooftops, and the Sé cathedral stands on its hill.

Top-ranked sights in Porto: Clérigos Church and Tower (Torre & Igreja dos Clérigos), Dom Luis Bridge (Ponte de Dom Luis I), Porto Cathedral (Sé Catedral do Porto).
