Train
Train from Lisbon to Braga (wedding city in the North): Outbound train station is: Lisboa- Oriente Arriving train station: Braga Book the ALFA Pendular train. Service code (AP) This the most fastest and most direct train option with the least amount of stops. We took the Alfa train twice on our trip. We booked under 1st class and had a great experience. The 1st class is close in cost to the 2nd so we recommend booking 1st. The train has wifi and a food and beverage cart. There is also storage for all luggage. There are also other options like the Alfa from Lisbon to Porto. IMPORTANT NOTES: - The Oriente train station is NOT at Lisbon Airport. Please take a taxi or Uber from the airport to the Oriente station. - Arrive early, trains take off ON TIME.
Hotel
If leaving from Lisbon please arrive the day before. Flights are usually early in the morning. We stayed at the Melia Lisboa Aeroporto and it was very convenient. It is located right outside Lisbon airport Terminal 1 departures. It is within walking distance or provides a shuttle if needed to the terminal. Breakfast also starts at 4 am so you are able to eat before going to the airport.
