First Class Train Travel In Portugal - CP Trains - Lisbon-Oriente To Faro

Getting from Lisbon to the south of Portugal (Algarve) means a long drive, bus journey or a flight. Instead, I found a first class ticket to travel by train to near where I needed to be.
Join me to explore the amenities and comforts of travelling by train in first class and be as shocked as I was by the price!!

Date of travel: 30 October 2022
Train: Alfa Pendular
Journey Time: 3 hours
Amenities: Free wi-fi, televisions, buffet car
My overall rating of the trip: 5/5 stars
Travel Tips:
* Lisbon-Oriente station is much further from central Lisbon than I realised! Budget for at least 20 minutes by Uber or taxi.
* You can assign a forward-facing single seat or two seats together for friends/couples.

Great Vlog Patrick Enjoyed that, and It reminded me that I should have taken that trip myself when I was in Lisbon.

Hi Patrick it’s me again👋 Just wanted to say that for the past weeks me and my family have enjoyed watching your WB Yeats videos together as we’re going to France on Saturday. Your videos are so enjoyable and we’ve loved watching them. Keep up the good work paddy bro!

First class is Très chic

It's always nicer and on CP Trains at the weekend, it's not much more expensive.

Patrick this video was helpful. I was planning to travel from Lisbon to Tomar in December. I see that you had a suitcase. Did you store that at your seat or was there a first class storage place in the train. I will be traveling with medium size suitcase and have wondered where to put as I am not familiar with European trains. Thank you!

Hi Barbara - yes there’s a storage area for suitcases in first class. Enjoy your trip!

Just a note, u forgot to mention the fact that the 19€ ticket was bcs u booked early, bcs if someone buys the tickes less than 5 days before the trip its fonna cpst double of the price

I booked this over 2 years ago, I don’t know what the rules were at the time. People should check at the time they book what the booking rules are.

I don’t know why the speeds were different at your specific time of travel.
