Distrito de Castelo Branco Travel Forum

Thanks to those who responded to my first inquiry about going north or south. My colleague and I are heading north however I need some advice about the suggested iternerary below.
Arrive in Lisbon (Sat.) and take train to Coimbra, stay at Hotel Astoria.
Next day train up to Porto, find a day boat trip to Pinhao, try to stay at Vintage House Question: In case they are booked, are there other alternatives?
Take riverside train back to Porto on Monday (stay one night) Question: Should we try to make it up to the Minho area? We have to be back in Lisbon Tuesday night.
Your trusted travel advice is much appreciated.

Is there any cheap flight from Rome Italy to Madeira?

We have been searching for some Paradise for divers and through ENGINE SEARCH on internet we came across and discovered Madeira. Are there any of you who has been to Madeira and found a recommendable, clean, affordable accommodation for first week of December¿ Please give details and exact direction to accommodation and price. Many thanks to all.

Does anyone have experience of deep sea fishing in madeira and fly fishing is it worth to try???

I am writing a piece set in Portugal and I would be grateful for any help. In 1994 when we visited Covilha, there was a very loud siren near the railway station that went off about twice a day. Does this still happen, and why? Diolch yn fawr/thank you very much!!!

Does anybody know when is the best time to visit Madeira? I mean- how is the end of December, beginning of January?
