      The Ladies at the bus stops

      Nazaré May 6, 2013 at 1:43 AM

      I've decided that Nazare looks like a wonderful place to stop and relax in after I finish the Camino.
      However, I don't want to book ahead as I'm not sure when I will be finishing.

      I have heard of the Ladies that are at the bus stop and will offer rooms/houses for rent to people getting off the bus.

      Can anyone give me some advise in this?
      Is it safe for a single women to go with them?
      Do you haggle over the price? Do you pay up front or at the end?
      How do you know what kind of place you will be going to?
      I am wanting a private room and place to relax for a few days....will this be the best option for me?

      Sorry for all the questions :-)

      I'm thinking of taking a trip with two of my friends to Lagos in September. We're in our mid-twenties and would be going for the beach scene and night life. My only concerns are:

      1) the weather - will it still be nice in early September (6th - 15th)?
      2) the atmosphere - will there still be people our age visiting/partying?

      If you've been there during this time of year, please shed some insight - it would be much appreciated.

      Thanks!

      3. what else other than porto and lisbon? other interesting places that worths the visit?
      4. Car hire: is it easy to find local car hire once in portugal or is it better to book in advance from AVIS/Hertz etc.?
      5. suggestions for cheap but decent hotels? We're not a 5-stars-suite guys but don't want to find bad surprises if the hotel is too cheap...
      6. what about the weather in june? warm? mild? rainy? short or long trousers? should we put a fleece and a wind jacket in the luggage just in case?
      7. any other suggestion? feel free to give your input please!

I was looking through different airlines to purchase a ticket, and the one I liked will arrive at Porto at 23:50 at night. Will I be able to go to Guimaraes at this time by train or bus? What is the operating time of public transports in that area? If anyone could answer, I would be grateful. Thank you.

      Visiting Guimaraes and Braga on the same day

      Distrito de Braga Apr 24, 2009 at 9:20 AM

      OK, now I'm getting in trouble. I was planning to spend one day visiting Guimaraes - then took a second look at the Guimaraes and Braga lines from Porto: cp.pt/cp/displayPage.do?vgne... It looks like if I left Porto around 7:30 AM, I could be in Guimaraes until around 1:30 PM. I don't like to spend time eating lunch, I usually bring something with me, so I would have abour 5 hours in Guimaraes. Then I could travel back to Trofa, and get on the train to go to Braga. I could be in Braga for about four hours, then head back to Porto. Comments? If this is doable, sensible, not way too rushed, is there a way to purchase the tickets to include all the segments? (Porto - Guimaraes, Guimaraes-Trofa, Trofa-Braga, Braga-Porto). Obrigada!

      Transportation from Porto and "the safety question"

      Guimarães Apr 5, 2009 at 8:21 PM

      Have decided to visit Guimaraes as a side trip from Porto. Is it easy to get from Porto to Guimaraes? It appears that the train connections change, so I do not know if there is a better way. Once in Guimaraes, is it also a place where tourists get hassled? Is it OK to go as a woman traveling alone using public transportation? There is an option of a tour that goes to Braga and Guimaraes (yuk) - but I will consider it if going on my own will be a hassle. Any experiences/advise/suggestions?
