TRAVELING TO PORTO
 BY PLANE
Porto International Airport is connected to 120 domestic and international destinations with 36 airlines.
From the airport it will take you approximately 30-45 minutes to get to the city centre.
Francisco Sá Carneiro Porto Airport (OPO) - City Center
 Metro
The most affordable way to get from the airport to the city centre is by metro. From the airport you can take metro line E (purple), and it will take you to the city centre within 30 minutes. The price of a one-way ticket is 2,25 EUR.

 Bus
Local buses (lines 601, 602, and 604) connect the airport and various areas of the city centre. Please note that taking the bus will take you longer than taking the metro, as it stops more often.

 Taxi
Taxis are available outside of the airport. A ride to the city centre should cost approximately 30 EUR.

 PUBLIC TRANSPORT
Public transport in Porto is affordable, reliable and covers most of the city. Tickets are valid for all means of transport, and the prices of the trips vary according to the number of zones you cross.

The Andante Card is a non-personalized, rechargeable ticket that allows you to travel on the entire public transportation network in the Porto Metropolitan area. It is valid for use of the metro, bus, and local trains. The price you pay depends on the journey you make, and not on the mode of transport you use or the number of boardings you make. It’s simple, practical and affordable.

Please note: You must validate your ticket when you start a journey. On trains and in the metro, use the existing validators in the stations. On buses, use the validators at the entrance of the vehicle.

If you plan to purchase the Porto Card for your stay in the city, we recommend that you buy it online beforehand or immediately at the airport, as it includes transportation to and from the airport. The Porto Card is the city’s tourist card. With it, you can benefit from discounted or free access to various cultural sites and museums. The card can be purchased for 1-4 days.
