Paris, Amsterdam, Milan, Lisbon, Valencia, Athens, Bordeaux and Florence: these are the European cities that came behind Porto in the list of best cities for interrail travelers, in a list that is led by Barcelona.
According to Bounce, the ‘Invicta’ has already established itself as a mandatory stop for those who want to get to know Europe by train.
The city of Porto thus ranks second, with a rating of 8.22 out of 10 possible points, a ranking that is established taking into account hostel features, safety, nightlife, and restaurants. In Porto, travelers find 0.89 hostels per square kilometer, 31.39 attractions, 1.59 bars and discos, and 50.60 restaurants. To these numbers, add the safety index, which is 64.55 (out of 100) in the city, and also the more than 39 million searches on Google.
For the luggage storage company, “taking Interrail in Portugal is undoubtedly one of the best ways to discover its wonderful beaches, coastal areas and wine regions.” “With the efficient rail connections in Portugal, those who venture on an Interrail can take the train from Porto in the north to the Algarve in the south. The central station, Porto Campanhã, is modern and serves the main lines,” he adds.
Bounce also highlights the city’s public transportation network, emphasizing that “Porto benefits from its fantastic public transportation network, giving tourists a quick and inexpensive way to explore the city’s sights.”
