Tip: Luisa Rosa de Aguiar Todi (1753 - 1833) was a popular and successful Portuguese mezzo-soprano opera singer and the city of Setubal was so proud that named the main boulevard after her. So, Avenida Luisa Todi is a wide boulevard parallel to the Rio Sado where you can feel Setubal coming alive with its many restaurants and activities, while having beautiful views of the river. Perfect for an afternoon walk.
Tip: To cross the river from Setubal to Troia, you need to take the ferry boat. It is a car/passenger ferry that will take around 15 minutes to cross. Go outside and enjoy this beautiful ride through Setubal bay.
