The Experience

Leaving Porto behind, we hit the road early—windows down, that salty Atlantic breeze sneaking in. Our driver, João, had a playlist of old fado and pop hits, which honestly set the mood better than any guidebook. First stop: Aveiro. The canals here really do remind you of Venice, but it’s the moliceiros—those long, painted boats—that steal the show. We watched a couple of them glide past, their skippers cracking jokes with the folks on the banks. There’s this faint smell of seaweed and sweet pastry in the air; I grabbed an ovos moles from a tiny bakery near the fish market. It’s sticky, rich, and nothing like anything I’ve had before.

Back in the van, we made our way south. The landscape shifts—flat marshes give way to rolling hills and clusters of pine. João pointed out Coimbra as we approached, telling us about the university’s bell tower and how students still wear those black capes for graduation. We didn’t have time to go inside, but just walking through the old streets, you hear snippets of Portuguese and laughter echoing off the stone. If you listen close, you’ll catch the sound of church bells mixing with the hum of scooters.

We chose Batalha for our second stop. The monastery is massive—late Gothic arches, stone so pale it almost glows in the afternoon sun. I ran my hand along the cool walls, thinking about all the history packed into this place. Our guide shared stories about the battle that led to its construction and pointed out the tombs of Portuguese kings inside. There’s a quiet here that feels almost sacred, even with other visitors around.
