Short description: You`ll go across one of the longest suspension bridges of the world and walk one of the most beautiful trails: The Paiva Walkways! Visit one of the highlights of Portugal: Costa Nova, and Aveiro, the Portuguese Venice!
We leave from Porto towards Arouca town where we will stop shortly for bathrooms and coffee.

After a power nap in the van, we`ll arrive to Costa Nova! Costa Nova is one of the highlights of Portugal – a beautiful fishing village known for its striped colorful houses!

Alles war super, beste Ausflüg! In Arouca haben wir Mittagessen gehabt und habe ich eine frage, was war in Hauptgericht grüne Blätter, was war das? Das war Omas Küche, hat geschmeckt wie in 5 Sterne Restaurant. Bitte kann mir jemand sagen was war das?

Geweldige trip, alleen heel jammer dat we slecht weer hadden. Dat is prima opgelost door de gids met een alternatief om iets anders te bezichtigen. Alles ging in goed overleg met iedereen die mee was met het tripje.
