Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get from Lisbon airport to the training centre?

Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport is very well connected to the city centre by metro (Linha Vermelha, 30 min) and taxi/Uber. Our team sends all participants a detailed arrival guide before their trip.

What is the weather like in Lisbon during training weeks?

Lisbon has one of Europe's most temperate climates. Summers are warm and dry (25–32°C), spring and autumn are mild and pleasant (16–22°C), and winters are mild with some rain (10–16°C). Outdoor activities are possible year-round.

Is Lisbon an expensive city for Erasmus+ teachers?

Lisbon is significantly more affordable than Western European capitals like London, Paris, or Amsterdam. The KA1 individual support grant (daily allowance) typically covers accommodation and meals comfortably.

What cultural activities are included in the training week?

All our courses include integrated cultural visits — typically to historic sites, contemporary art spaces, schools, and neighbourhood walks. These are not optional extras — they're part of the learning design.
