The boat ride was lovely. Too bad they would not accept our smartphone tickets. We had to wait in line to get new paper tickets and missed the boat. Had to wait an hour in the sun before the next sailing.

We loved the boat, but we did not love the bus trip. Thought we were booking on Aveiro and had to drive to Porto only to head back to Aveiro on bus as we could not cancel!
