Porto Francisco Sá Carneiro → Guimarães: key facts

Getting from Porto Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport (OPO) to Guimarães takes about 45 min by car on an empty road (45–55 min in heavy traffic) over 55 km via A 3 and A 7. Our private transfer costs €110 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €160 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.

On arrival: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the Porto airport terminal, after baggage reclaim and the customs exit, holding a sign with your name. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.

Guimarães is a medieval town about 55 km north-east of Porto airport, regarded as the cradle of Portugal, with its hilltop castle and the Palace of the Dukes of Braganza. The road from the airport area joins the A3 and A7 motorways, which are tolled. The UNESCO-listed historic centre around Largo da Oliveira has few streets open to cars, so drop-off is on its edge; Guimarães fills up during the Nicolinas students' festival in December.

Guimarães' historic centre is compact and can be walked from end to end in about fifteen minutes. The castle and the Palace of the Dukes of Braganza stand on the northern side, with Largo da Oliveira and Praça de São Tiago in the middle, where cafes and restaurants occupy the arcaded squares. Newer hotels lie along Avenida Conde de Margaride and around the Alameda de São Dâmaso. The Penha hill and cable car sit just outside town, and the city is busiest in early August during the Gualterianas festival, with the Nicolinas students' festivities following in early December.
