What a great day with Carlos! While Aveiro was such a quaint sweet town and Costa Nova had a beautiful beach our favorite stop was the Salt farm. The salt farm was so cool. This is how salt was harvested back in Roman times. So exciting to see the ingenuity from 100s of years ago in action. We appreciate the people who took initiative to reopen this farm. We hope they are able to keep it open. It is worth a stop if you are in the area.

Delphine, our guide, has a wonderful personality who offered kind and thoughtful gestures throughout the day. The city, architecture, guided canal tour were all lovely to see…a superb day.

Carlos is an excellent and interesting storyteller. Gave us a lot of good advice. It was a nice ride. Frankly, in Aveira you may not go boating, we have not seen or learned anything interesting or useful, but it is not a question for Carlos or his agency, it is a question for the guys who organize boating. Other than that, it's fine.
