Having a relaxed and sunbath Canal Cruise in Aveiro. Viva a Ria did a great job and made us joyful. Vibrant and tried to speak our languages, really appreciated. "Old Eagle"

The tour started and our guide was sitting down. When I asked if this is a guided tour. She told me to calm down and take pictures. In 45 min all she told us are 3 things. This is where we store the salt but this year not so much salt, Here is the ceramic building. But it’s closed and the friendship bridge but there 5 but one is the friendship bridge. Bad tour. Watch for the ones that have microphones. They don’t stop talking. Oh and all she did is show the middle figure to other boats.

We went on board with Viva Ria on their boat pier to cruise in the Aveiro city cannels. The boat ride was approximately 40 minutes. Cost per person was 15 Euros. The staff were friendly and explained the historical importance of each building and places we observed during the boat cruise. Good boat agency. Boat ride was also comfortable. Highly recommended.
