Taxi to Porto

KLB · Mar 25, 2023

Hello! I’m walking 3 days of the Camino starting at Porto (coastal route), first stop Vila Cha, 2nd and 3rd stop yet to be decided. I have an early ish flight from Porto on the morning of the 4th day and wondering how easy it would be for me to get a taxi to the airport? I reckon that 3rd stop will be around Barcelos but don’t know yet could be further?! Any suggestions for good destination stop that would also be good to get a taxi from would be appreciated! Thanks

How early is early’ish?

Barcelos is a decent option; although if you could start three days south of Porto and walk back it would be more predictable.

Wherever you walk to, on your way back you maybe stay at the Park hotel at the airport
Just 5 minutes walk to the Departures
Early breakfast possible
I’ve stayed there several times and is ideal for early flights
And the costs are almost the same as when you have a cheaper hotel in Porto plus the fare for a taxi to the airport.

a good idea is to walk to Barcelos and take the train back to Campanhã station in Porto where you can take the metro to the airport .
That is what I should do and many times did before.

Sorry for late reply - thanks for this. I managed to speak to a lady at a hostel who assured me that I’d get a taxi so I think I’m sorted. My flight isn’t too early to warrant staying nearby overnight but early enough for me to not want the hassle of buses/trains! Thanks again

Thanks - sorted now but thanks anyway.
