Some good information. When I was there a travelled almost exclusively on trains. It is a great and affordable way to get around Portugal. One tip I would give is to NEVER travel on a Friday. Lots of people are leaving the big cities to go home to away for the weekend and the trains as packed!!!

Good point there!! Fridays from 5pm onwards can be very busy because of people going back home 😊 it happens a lot here in Coimbra, as students go home to see their parents. But still, usually tickets don't sell out!

Thanks for all the great information about the trains and the website for tickets. Good post about not travelling on a Friday, we encountered that in Italy as well, packed on Fridays.

Iam traveling this aummer from Germany via Austria, Italy, The Netherlands, France and Spain to Portugal with an Interrail pass. I think the Lisbon - Madrid night train doesn't exist anymore because I can't find it in the Timetable. The only train to Madrid I could find is the Train via Vigo and Pontevedra.

Hello! Thanks for watching and I am glad my videos are helping you plan your holidays here :) please for those details contact the train company www.cp.pt - you will have to tell them departure and arrival stations (the seats have to be headed to the south or north depending where you are going).

Obrigada for this video Sara. I'm planning my first trip to Portugal. I'm arriving in Lisbon and wanted to go to the Algarve for 4 days. Wanted to start in Lagos and go all the way to Vila Real de Santo Antonio. Is this doable by using the train? How reliable are the trains in Portugal? I heard that in some small towns the trains can be up to 2 hrs late.

Just Google it: 'there is no direct train from France to Portugal. However, there are services departing from Cité and arriving at Santa Apolónia via Paris Montparnasse 1 Et 2 and Hendaye. The journey, including transfers, takes approximately 20h 52m.' Good trip and hope to see you here soon! Cheers!
