English From €99 to Viana do Castelo
One price for the car, whether one or four ride, even on a midnight arrival.
Viana do Castelo is the elegant capital of the Alto Minho: a hilltop basilica, a historic hospital ship in the harbour, gold filigree and one of Portugal's best kitesurf beaches at Cabedelo. With Zonetransfers, your flight is followed and a driver waits for you in Porto arrivals to drive you to Viana do Castelo, from €99 for the whole car.
The transfer follows the A28 north along the coast; in about 45 minutes your driver drops you in the old town, at the Pousada on Santa Luzia hill or at Cabedelo beach. The road trip is close to 67 km, taking 45 min in normal traffic, with up to four of you sharing a €99 fare. Zonetransfers assigns your vehicle before you take off.

Yes; it is a popular start, 45 minutes from Porto Airport by private transfer.
Expect to pay from €99 for the car, not per seat, for one to four travellers, tolls and tax already in.
Look for your driver on the ground floor of the terminal, name sign in hand. Kerbside waiting is not allowed in Porto, which is why we meet you inside.
Yes; Cabedelo beach has reliable wind from spring to autumn.
About 45 minutes for 67 km on the A28.
Your flight number is on the booking, so the pick-up follows the real landing, early or late; one hour of waiting at no charge counts from touchdown. Very long delays, over 90 minutes, are rearranged with you directly.
It depends on the trip: Pousada de Viana do Castelo, Axis Viana Business & Spa or Hotel Laranjeira are good choices. Whichever you book, your driver goes to its entrance.
No; in Portugal tipping a pre-paid transfer is a personal choice, motorway tolls and bags included.
