Very good video Tony, with practical and simple info about how to get from Lisbon to Porto, excellent. You´ve only missed that Porto has a very good Metro system that you can take directly outside Campanhã train station at...Campanhã Metro station !! The Metro 9 lines take you directly downtown and around the city metropolitan area including the Porto international airport, the seaside areas of Porto and Matosinhos, etc, and even to the resort nearby cities of Vila do Conde an Povoa Varzim. Important to mention on a future video. Anyway and again you´re doing a great job, keep on.

All your Lisbon and Porto videos are SO helpful! Thank you. I have a question regarding luggage size for the overhead storage on the InterCity trains. We will be traveling with three suitcases, one of which is large and doesn't fit into an airplane overhead storage. Is there size limits on the trains for luggage storage? If a suitcase doesn't fit overhead (and clearly it won't fit under the seat) is there additional space somewhere in the carriage? Thanks in advance for any guidance. (We looked at the FAQs on the Comboios de Portugal website but couldn't find an answer to this specific question.)

@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal 6 ай бұрын

Hi Elle, you should check the CP baggage rules here: www.cp.pt/passageiros/en/how-to-travel/Useful-information/luggage-transport There is room for large suitcases on one end of the carriages, but on the fast trains you are only allowed to board with just the one piece, any additional piece of luggage is considered as excess baggage. All the very best to you!

Hello, we are planning on visiting Portugal with my girlfriend and we are both under 25. Can we use the sale on tickets for youths? Thanks, love your videos:)

@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal 7 ай бұрын

Hi Lukáš, you don't specific what transport you are referring to, but unless there is an indication that the discount is only for residents or holders of a specific youth card, you should be able to take advantage of the discount. On Rede Expressos (the bus), for instance, you should be ok to get the discount. All the best!

I’m going to Portugal in a couple of days for a cruise from Lisbon to Barcelona. I decided to stay a few days in Porto beforehand and my Airbnb is near São Bento Station. Google maps keeps telling me I have to transfer at Campanha. The AP was only 6€ more than the IC when I looked.

Bought in advance, the AP is just slightly more expensive than the IC. The issue of the transfer is explained in the video.

@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal Well it is was confusing because the station didn’t say Porto and when I asked a ticket person he said I had to get on a train that said Guimaraes. The way back is smoother as while writing this I’m on an AP train which is nicer than the IC one. I also did buy a ticket for the way back ahead of time unlike for the way there.

Hi Tony, Obrigado pela sua resposta. I watched the video from the link above. Great Video!!! I learned from your video that the train from Vigo to Porto is Celta comboy or Celta train, an international train operated by CP. Thank you. I learned as well from your video that there is Flixbus company that has a route that starts from Coruña in Galicia and passes through Santiago de Compostela, Vigo, Braga, and arrives at Porto. My itinerary will be from Santiago de Compostela to Lisbon. It looks like I have to take three trains: Santiago de Compostela to Vigo, Vigo to Porto, and Porto to Lisbon. I would like to know if I can bring my bike inside the train/bus. Do I need to have a bike bag in order to travel in the train/bus? I believe I can travel from Santiago de Compostela to Vigo by train. Obrigado!!!

@@Rogerio1998 hi Rogério, as there are several train companies involved you would have to check the rules with each one of them, as we haven't got any experience on the topic. We know some allowances are made for people doing the Camino and traveling with a bike, but would not want to just make up the rules for you. You could also travel direct by bus with Alsa.

Hi Tony, quick question please....i have tried to look everywhere for the exact refund rules on cancellation of a Full Fare Comboios de Portugal ticket - Lisbon to Porto. On the CP website, it simply says its refundable upto 15 mins prior to train departure. On the Omio website, i found a reference of 3 years ago that they would deduct 4 Euros. Would you by any chance know the refund rules today? Many thanks, Monisha

Thanks Tony, I did read this. Says free refund, so it probably means 100% refund 15 mins before train departure?That's what I wanted to re-confirm with you as it does not give a exact number and we are so used to seeing 70% refund, etc! Also, maybe i couldnt believe it was FREE until 15 mins before train departure! 😂 Thanks very much again!
