Relaxing half day trip near Porto. - Louis was a wonderful, knowledgeable guide. The trip to two other towns near Porto was relaxing and interesting making it a nice activity for a change of pace. The canals in Aviero aren’t spectacular but we enjoyed it and had a very good guide on the boat also.

Great way to explore Aveiro and Costa Nova - This was our second tour in 2 days with Jose C. as our guide. The tour was wonderful. Despite the rain during the cruise - Alex, the guide on the cruise, was friendly and entertaining. Jose showed us around Aveiro and Costa Nova and he was kind, patient, and very knowledgeable.

It was an excellent tour and well arranged! - It was well arranged tour with our guide, Carmo and the driver Marcia. Also, the boat guide and the captain were very pleasant. Both guides were extremely informative. The only thing I can say is if we had extra 10 minutes free time to enjoy our coffee and using the facilities. Otherwise all went great, good job👍

My dieses - Very nice and recommended tour thanks to Bernardo and Jonás. We'll be back. If you walk through Porto and you don't know what to do, take the tour, Aveiro is worth it, it's possibly nicer than Porto....
