Are you in Lisbon and want to visit Porto? Have you thought about how you are going to travel from Lisbon to the “Invicta city”?, as Porto is called by its people! Did you know that one of the most spectacular regions of Portugal is on the way between Lisbon and Porto? Turn your transfer into an unforgettable experience visiting some locations in the Center of Portugal and discover a country within the country.

255 km from Lisbon you will find Aveiro. Visiting Aveiro is the same as diving in the waters of Centro de Portugal. The Aveiro “Ria” began to form during the 15th century, when the shore line moved back and left behind sandpits along an area of eleven thousand hectares which created a lagoon. Nowadays, it has become a real network of canals and islands which has made Aveiro earn the title of “Portuguese Venice”.

Return to the road and head to Ílhavo and before arriving at your hotel in Porto, exit the route and head to Costa Nova.
