• Arrival: Lisbon can be reached by air, rail and road. The International Airport is located inside the city. Bus and taxi services to and from airport provide easy access to the city center and hotels.

• Taxi: Taxi is a convenient way to go from the airport to the Hotel. A ride from the airport to the hotels should be approximately €7-€10. They can charge you an extra €1.50 for luggage in the trunk. The total should not exceed 12 Euros (slightly higher if late at night). You are expected to take no more than 15 minutes (without traffic).

• Taxi Voucher: If you want to take a taxi, but avoid the possibility of being overcharged by the taxi driver, then you can also use the “Taxi Voucher” service. With this service, you can buy a voucher at a booth (Turismo de Lisboa) located in the airport lobby just outside the arrivals gate. The person at this booth will go with you and pay the taxi driver. The service is about €14 flat fee for a ride from the airport to any part of central Lisbon. This is higher than the normal taxi fare, but lower than some cases of overcharging by the taxi driver.
