Phone Data Plan

There are many plans you can get when traveling. A provider David and I use is Alosim. It offers affordable and instant mobile data coverage and packages you can choose from.

Translation Apps

Translation apps can be invaluable when having a conversation with locals who do not speak English.

In addition to Google Translate, there are plenty of other apps available to to you to communicate with locals during your visit to Portugal. Feel free to download apps onto your phone like DeepL Translater, TranslateVoice, or iTranslate to name a few.

Rental Providers

The best way to get a rental car while traveling is to plan ahead and book in advance.

Researching different rental companies online allows you to compare prices, availability, and policies to find the best deal for your needs. It's also important to consider factors such as insurance coverage, vehicle size, and rental location convenience.

David and I highly recommend spending the week sharing a space with other family members or friends if you want to look for a cute Airbnb.

Airbnb options can often be more affordable than traditional hotels, especially for longer stays or for larger groups. Not to mention some Airbnb hosts provide insider tips and recommendations for exploring the local area and unlike hotels, Airbnb’s come with amenities such as kitchens, laundry facilities, and outdoor spaces, providing guests with the comforts of home.
