Travel and Accomodation

To ensure a seamless experience during your time in Coimbra, we have established strategic partnerships with key mobility providers and hotels. All registered participants of the 10th ICFFR & 19th IWFSS can access exclusive discounts and pre-negotiated rates to facilitate their travel and stay.

Moving around Coimbra is convenient and fast. Here are your best options:

Public Transportation

We are securing special conditions for participants using Coimbra's public transit network. With Google Maps you can easily find the best public transportation routes and pick-up points.

  • Metrobus: The easiest and fastest public transport option. You can drop off at the "Portagem" station and take a short, scenic walk across the Santa Clara Bridge to reach the Convento de S. Francisco.
  • City Buses (SMTUC): The local bus network offers wider coverage across the city and is a helpful alternative for reaching specific neighborhoods.

Ride-Hailing & Taxis

  • Private Transportation: Services like Uber and Bolt operate seamlessly here; if you already have an account, it will work perfectly in Portugal.
  • City Taxis: Traditional taxis are readily available throughout the city (a quick online search for "Coimbra taxi" will provide local hotlines).

Micromobility

  • Shared Scooters & Bikes: For a flexible and eco-friendly option, you can easily rent electric scooters or e-bikes from various operators scattered across the city.
