Aveiro is one of the easiest day trips you can do from Porto, and a guided tour takes the hassle out of it. Book an Aveiro tour from Porto and the driving, the route and the timing are sorted, so you get a relaxed day on the canals instead of working out connections.
When you compare Aveiro tours from Porto, check what else is folded in. We'd look for the boat ride along the canals on a moliceiro and the striped fishermen's houses at Costa Nova, since those two make the trip. Some excursions pair Aveiro with the Paiva walkways and the Arouca suspension bridge if you want more walking; others run it as a longer transfer between Porto and Lisbon, stopping at Nazaré and Óbidos. Want to set the pace yourself? A private tour lets you linger; small-group day trips keep the cost down.
9 Aveiro tours from €46. Private and small-group, half-day and full-day, with hotel pickup and free cancellation on most - easy to book online.
