Small group trip to Aveiro and Costa Nova
The guide, Pedro, was excellent. Arrived on time at the hotel, very polite, considerate and kind. Also extremely knowledgeable. Lunch at the restaurant was also very good. All in all, well worth the cost

This was our second of...
This was our second of three tours with Pedro. Picked up outside our apartment, we drove to Santa Maria da Feira, with its picturesque, almost Disney-style castle, then to little café for a coffee and to taste ‘Fogaça’- one of the many tasty pastries of Portugal which has an impressive history of 500 years. This ritual is Pedro’s ‘signature start’ to every tour! The next stop was in the ‘Venice of Portugal’– Aviero, a cruise around their canal system, after which there was another of round of Portugal’s sweets, the ‘Ovos Moles’, before a drive around Ria de Aveiro to view the habitat of the vast variety of wildlife of the region. A visit to Costa Nova beach, with its colourfully painted fishermen’s cottages along the beachfront, was followed by a substantial lunch. This ‘restaurant ritual ‘is a great feature of Pedro’s tours, and one we can highly recommend – good conversation oiled by Portuguese wines! For lovers of fine porcelain, the last stop took us to the famous Lugar da Vista Alegre, the Chapel, the Museum, with a walk through the production line, before being tempted in their show room. This is a very relaxed tour, lots of sunshine, fresh air and wind in the hair. It was easy to doze off on the drive back to Porto! Susan & Graeme 5*

Great tour. Wasn't sure...
Great tour. Wasn't sure what to expect as this was our first tour just after arriving in Portugal. We could not have felt more at home and comfortable with our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and easy going. The tour was done at our pace without any feelings of being rushed.

What a fantastic day!
To learn about another culture from a local is an enriching experience. Pedro shares Portugal in his own unique way, through food and stories. We had rich conversation and learned about our culture influenced Portuguese history. With every stop, we experienced Portugal through Pedro's excitement about sharing his culture. We would definitely spend another day with Pedro.

Aveiro Tour Small group, Moliceiro Cruise, Costa Nova, Vista Alegre & Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Porto.
How much does Aveiro Tour Small group, Moliceiro Cruise, Costa Nova, Vista Alegre & Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Porto usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Aveiro Tour Small group, Moliceiro Cruise, Costa Nova, Vista Alegre & Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Porto is not rushed.
Is Aveiro Tour Small group, Moliceiro Cruise, Costa Nova, Vista Alegre & Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Porto, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Aveiro Tour Small group, Moliceiro Cruise, Costa Nova, Vista Alegre & Lunch?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Aveiro Tour Small group, Moliceiro Cruise, Costa Nova, Vista Alegre & Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Aveiro Tour Small group, Moliceiro Cruise, Costa Nova, Vista Alegre & Lunch?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Porto can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Porto and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Aveiro Tour Small group, Moliceiro Cruise, Costa Nova, Vista Alegre & Lunch start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Porto within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Porto?
+
On Outty we rank every Porto experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Unvanquished Tour in Porto City Center, Porto's #1 Walking Tour, Small Group Geres National Park Full Day with picnic from Porto. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Porto?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Porto?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
