Travelling with the train isn't just simple and comfortable. The trains run only between most essential towns of Portugal; many lines were shut down.
At journeys with the own car or a hire car one should for the identity card, driving-licence, vehicle bill for possible police controls and has the lease at hire cars at this.Respect: Portugal's streets are dangerous. The road network isn't improved particularly well, is dictated to most of 60 km/h on secondary roads; no-one holds on to this. Motorways are only available in north-south direction, start out of Lisbon. The maximum speed of 120 km/H are valid here. This however doesn't prevent for this a vehicle with flash of the headlights, warning indicator and a speed of more than 180 km/h suddenly appear behind one. Also in towns it approaches violently which isn't in a vehicle got motorised no laws in principle are fair game and have in the traffic, traffic participant. The kind and peaceful Portuguese becomes the aggressive Kamikaze as soon as he turns the ignition key over. But fear: if you remain quiet, you don't let yourself be led to the highly dangerous races on the secondary roads. You adhere to the speed demarcations, even if behind you the flash of the headlights flashes and you drive in front of all of them at night more slowly a little. You then come back healthily again!
We cannot recommend you journeys with the bicycle. Not only because of the high temperatures in the summer and the bad street conditions: where are the a bicycle and footpaths? But also because of the danger which starts out of the drivers. Take a hire car prefer.
