HOW TO GET FROM PORTO AIRPORT TO CITY CENTER
Touching down at Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport will have you dreaming of pastel de nata in Ribeira, but the thought of fighting with your suitcases through turnstiles can darken that dream. Booking an airport transfer with SIXT ride gives you a licensed driver who tracks your flights in order to meet you inside arrivals, and handles every bag. You'll enjoy fixed, all‑inclusive fares, up to one hour of free wait time, and spacious, climate‑controlled vehicles for ultimate comfort and reliability. If you prefer local flair, there are licensed taxis standing ready. Budget travelers can travel via the Metro or express airport buses.

Licensed taxis are lined up outside the arrivals exit. The meters start with a connection fee of ± €3.25 and run at €1.10/km, plus luggage surcharges. A typical one‑way fare to the city center lands between €25 and €30 ($28–$33 USD), depending on traffic and time of day. A taxi is less convenient and not as comfortable as the airport transfer service, but it is more flexible than public transportation and offers door-to-door service.
