My name is Sergio and Aveiro is my home town. I grew, graduated, and worked in Aveiro for many years. As part of my work, I travel worldwide to engage to with customers from all sorts of countries and speak on conferences and other events. I love traveling, I love meeting other cultures... and I love also my home town.
Whenever traveling abroad, if I have time, I usually take walking tours to
complement my own sightseeing. I found out that this is a great to know more about the history of places and their people, to become aware of interesting stories, and a lot more.
After several years, I decided: why not provide this kind of experience to other people that want to visit the lovely Aveiro city? And that's how Aveiro Walking Tours was born. It's a hobby, but a hobby lived with passion. I speak mainly Portuguese and English. I also understand a bit of Spanish and French.
I'm curious by nature, learner, and I would love to share. Some people call Aveiro the Venice of Portugal, some the capital of Art Nouveau, and other say Aveiro is the most romantic city of Portugal. What we all agree is that it's unique and worth a visit! It has a salty but sweet story. But much more than that!
Join me for a relaxed, safe, insightful, and fun walking tour, where you'll learn a lot about interesting historical facts, stories of passion, devotion, revenge, the obvious and the non-obvious. I'll also provide a lot of recommendations for further exploration and enjoyment, so you can discover and experience more by yourself.
Hope to be your host and see you soon in Aveiro!
I loved the tour! We walked around the city and our tourguide even brought ribbon for us to tie around the bridge (typical of Aveiro) and we tasted some of the typical Aveiro sweets. The tour was interesting and tourguide has very good English.
Sergio has great knowledge of his city, Aveiro. We learned about the history and how it evolved to its present. He kept us engaged and entertained. With just the two of us as his guests, he didn't cancel on us. What a true professional!!! Wonderful tour!!
The tour was superb. We had only 3 h in Aveiro (between visiting Portu and Coimbra) and this 2 h walking tour had covered all the main attractions in a-very interesting, emotional and fanny way. We really had fun. Thank you, Sergio!!!
Sergio was an excellent guide. Friendly and knowledgeable.
