In Ponte de Lima, you can explore mesmerizing sites such as the Ponte Romana (Roman Bridge) and River Walks. This 2000-year-old bridge traverses the Lima River, and the walks allow visitors to stroll along leafy banks, where sculptures and willows lend themselves to quiet reflection. From there, you can head to the Historic Center of town, where narrow alleys crisscross between 17th-century facades. Small cafes entice visitors with the wafting scents of pastries, fresh herbs, and woodsmoke. Finally, take a trip to the Museu dos Terceiros and Torre de Cadeia Valley (two hidden museums tucked into a former convent and former jail.) Sample Arroz de sarrabulho (a rich rice stew) before leaving.

Then, stroll the historic heart of the town in Praca da Republica, home to azulejo-lined arcades, fountains, and hand-crafted lace shops with centuries of tradition. Finally, tour the Gil Eannes Hospital Ship Museum, a floating piece of history in a former ship hospital. See the operating rooms and sailors’ quarters while learning local sea tales. Before you leave, try Bacalhau a Viana, salted cod crusted in cornbread.

Great transfer option.

I used this service for a transfer from Split in Croatia to Perast Montenegro. My experience was exceptional. My driver Bojan was helpful, informative and ensured my journey was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend the service.

It was a fantastic trip.

We were extremely satisfied with the quality of service we received from Day Trip. We had two Day Trip rides on August 31 from Athens to Lefkada and September 7 from Lefkada back to Athens. Both trips included stops at scenic sites in Greece. Both drivers were excellent and accommodating. However, we’d especially like to recognize Panos Peppas, who was our driver from Lefkada to Athens. Panos was incredibly nice & pleasant and delivered outstanding customer service, which included handling all of luggage, providing us with cold waters throughout the trip, providing us protein bars, providing us with printed materials on the Corinth Canal (one of scenic stops), looking up and providing us with terminal & gate info for our flight back home and providing us with a recipe for tzatziki.

Best transport company anywhere

We absolutely love this company and have used it many times over the years to get from A to B without the hassle of hiring a car ourselves. Excellent drivers every time. Efficient and professional. It’s worth every penny and we can honestly recommend Day Trip to everyone. It’s 5 star rating is well deserved.

Excellent experience in traveling

We traveled from Nuremberg to Munich in a beautiful Audi. Driver picked us at our hotel at the exact time requested. Got us to Munich in plenty of time for our next tour. Driver made sure we were comfortable

Reasonably Priced and Safe Transportation

Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.

Daytrip never disappoints

We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.

Great driver in Egypt

Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.

Comfortable and Safe Rides in Mexico

Used Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.

Great way to travel and see some sights on the way

We did not know what to expect with this trip and booked from Australia. We were initially looking for an easy way to travel from Granada to Malaga. We decided not to waste the opportunity to see something additional on our way. Miguel certainly exceeded our expectations. His English was excellent (unfortunately we speak very little Spanish), and he was very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing about the regions as we passed through and also discussing some of the local ways. Miguel took us to Antequera as planned and ensured we were able to easily get our tickets to the attractions without any sense of rushing us. We were picked up and dropped off punctually and really enjoyed our trip. Hopefully we will return to Spain and we can use this service again sometime.

Michelle R10 février 2025

Excellent service

We used the service twice while in Thailand. Extremely prompt and efficient customer service. Best rate being offered in Chiang Mai for the travels. Polite, punctual, professional and English speaking drivers. Clean, comfortable vehicles. Being a regular visitor to Thailand, this was hands down the best service. Most pleased with the company. I hope it sustains the excellence of service that was rendered to us.

Know more about your day trip

Ponte de Lima, Portugal's oldest town, features a medieval bridge, riverside gardens, and historic center. During your 1.5-hour visit, explore its Roman origins, elegant manor houses, and traditional markets. The town's connection to the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route adds cultural significance.

Viana do Castelo combines stunning architecture with Atlantic coastline. Your 2-hour visit includes the hilltop Santa Luzia Basilica with panoramic views, the historic center with Manueline and Renaissance buildings, and the Gil Eannes hospital ship museum showcasing maritime history.

The journey from Porto to Ponte de Lima takes approximately 1 hour, with another 30 minutes to Viana do Castelo. Your private driver ensures comfortable transportation through the scenic Minho region, known for its green landscapes, vineyards, and historic villages.

Minho cuisine features fresh seafood, cured meats, and the famous Vinho Verde wine. Try regional specialties like lamprey from Lima River, bacalhau dishes, or francesinha sandwiches. Markets in both towns offer local produce and sweets like queijadas and beijinhos.

Absolutely! The Minho region is home to Vinho Verde (young "green" wine). Your guide can recommend wine tasting opportunities in both towns, particularly in Ponte de Lima where local producers offer tastings of this slightly sparkling, refreshing wine unique to northern Portugal.

Comfortable walking shoes are essential for cobblestone streets and Santa Luzia's steps. Bring layers as coastal Viana can be windy, and a camera for panoramic views. Sun protection is recommended year-round, and a small backpack for personal items and shopping is practical.

Both towns offer excellent shopping opportunities during your visits. Ponte de Lima is known for embroidered linens and regional food products, while Viana do Castelo features traditional gold filigree jewelry, ceramics, and the famous regional embroidery on clothing and household items.

Ponte de Lima's riverside area is mostly flat, but Viana do Castelo presents challenges with hills and steps, particularly at Santa Luzia Basilica. The main attractions in town centers are accessible, but full exploration requires navigating uneven terrain. Contact Daytrip to discuss specific needs.
