Full day from Porto to Aveiro canals on a moliceiro boat and Coimbra. Small group, salt pans, and optional palace visits.

Small-group day trip from Porto to Coimbra and Aveiro, with a traditional moliceiro canal cruise plus time in Coimbra’s historic core.
“Alex was a good driver and very knowledgeable, with good English. He anticipated the weather without any prompting and rearranged the tour route so our stop in Aveiro, with an open top boat ride, was undertaken in the dry. Coimbra was very interesting and would recommend the additional fee for the visit to the palace, church and library. All in all a great tour.”
