// Getting there and around
Travelling to Porto is quite easy. Sá Carneiro international airport is a short flight away from most European cities and several intercontinental flights connect Porto to several overseas destinations. Nevertheless, connection flights via London, Frankfurt or even Lisbon, provide an efficient alternative for those who travel from cities without direct flights to Porto.
City center and conference venue are 15kms away from the airport and are easily reachable by taxi, bus and metro, Transportation costs from airport to city center, hotels or conference venue range from less than 2€ (metro) to approximately 25€ (taxi). Those who choose to stay longer and enjoy the region can select from a wide variety of touristic destinations.
