For an alternative to Lisbon and Faro on the Algarve, try travelling with a low cost carrier to the north of the country from London, Dublin, Berlin, Madrid or Paris.

Portugal is an understandably popular holiday destination. It is blessed with a proud history, great beaches and fascinating cities. Most visitors tend to book cheap flights to either Faro on the Algarve or Lisbon, the capital city.

However, there is another option – Porto in the north of the country is an intriguing city, far more down to earth and ‘real’ than the tourist resorts of the south. Visitors to the country can get a taste of a different Portugal, and they don’t have to spend a fortune to do so. There are now plenty of budget airlines offering flights to Porto from England, Ireland, Germany and elsewhere in Europe.
