Travel information |
If you travel by train, you should buy a ticket to Coimbra.
If you come by plane, you should buy a ticket to Lisboa or to Porto. The airport that is most convenient for intercontinental flights is Lisboa, although Porto is closer to Coimbra. Further, the airport in Porto is not very close to the Porto's railway station.
If you arrive in Lisboa, you can either take a taxi or a bus to the Oriente Railway Station (Gare do Oriente). If you arrive in
Porto, you should take a taxi to the Porto-Campanhă Railway Station.
In both cases you should exit in Coimbra-B railway station,
where you can take a train connection to the small Coimbra-A station in the city centre (this connection is free of charges). On the left side of this Central station you can take a bus (nș 1) direct to the University.
There are also daily buses connecting the three cities (Lisboa-Coimbra-Porto). You can see the schedules of the buses in Rede Expressos. The buses stations are not located at the airports, so you will need to take either a taxi or a bus from the airport to the bus station.
