6 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

There are several cities which benefit from the privilege of being near watercourses. Aveiro is no exception, as its stands out thanks to its famous Ria, abundant in fish and waterbirds.
The "moliceiros", unique boats with simple decoration reminding the naif painting, are also connected to the ria, still collecting the seaweed- a great fertilizer for arid lands.

Please note that the Tour Operator will not always accompany you to every place you visit, but will always explain each one and then give you free time to explore on your own.
