Location, travel & contact
Location
The course is held at the Sorriso Natural teaching centre, about 20 minutes’ drive from Porto city centre. Daily transport is included.
Pick-up & hotel recommendations
The mini-bus leaves Porto city centre at 8:15 am every course day: see the pick-up point on Google Maps. We suggest staying within a short walk of it.
Hotels near the pick-up point
August is high season, so we recommend booking early.
Why a rest day in the middle?
Long story short: you’ll need it. Past delegates who wondered why soon found out. The classes are intensive, with lots of information, early starts and late finishes. A day off lets your brain and body absorb it all. Most delegates explore Porto, head to the beach or try a surf lesson.
About Porto
Porto has been voted one of Europe’s best destinations several years running. There’s a lot to see and do, so consider arriving a few days early or staying on to enjoy the city and the nearby beaches.
