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!
Sergio was an excellent guide. It is very clear that he loves Aveiro and knows how to show this city very well. I enjoy the amount of historical facts he mentioned. He also makes the tour entertain and makes you interact. We were also fortunate enough to enter few places quickly since we were in the first Sunday of the month, when all museums are free in Aveiro. And of course, he gave us nice tips of what to do afterwards, where to have a drink, and where to eat. I totally recommend taking the tour with Sergio.
Simply the best
We loved the tour with S茅rgio! He knows the city, he answered all our questions, he was pacient with us (we were not an easy group lol). Next time we come to Aveiro we will definitely contact him again. We truly recommend S茅rgio :)
The tour was very enjoyable and it was the perfect way to get to know Aveiro. S茅rgio was very knowledgeble and fun, and showed us a lot of details I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't booked the tour. I am very happy with the experience
