How to get from Porto Airport to your hotel?
Nothing dampens the excitement of arriving in a new city than a stressful transfer. Having to navigate the bus and metro networks in a foreign language can be extremely stressful, especially if you have heavy luggage. Plus, once you reach the bus or metro station in the city centre, you will have to walk or pay for a local taxi to your hotel, which only adds more time and cost to your journey.
Instead, why not pre-book your Porto Airport taxi and enjoy a seamless door-to-door journey from the curb of the airport to your hotel in Porto? You will be able to sit back and relax in a private vehicle, knowing all of your personal belongings and loved ones are safe and secure.
