To prevent delay, we encourage you to begin the visa process 6 months before your travel to Portugal. Please contact us at kelechiandbido@gmail.com or at +1 (732) 668-5589 if you need documents to facilitate the visa process from your home country.
From Porto Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport (OPO), you have four main modes of transport to choose from for your transfer into the city center. The quickest and easiest method is by Porto Airport taxi, with a ride taking approximately 25 minutes outside of peak traffic hours. Alternatively, you can opt for a private Porto Airport transfer, which provides a more customized ride without the need to line up or wait for a taxi.
There are also two public transportation options: the bus and the metro. Both provide a quick and relatively comfortable ride of around 25 minutes. The metro and the bus cost the same and offer a cheaper alternative to a taxi for travelers on a budget. However, expect longer waits and allow time to walk to your destination from the train or bus stop.
Below are price estimates.
