Horrible place on a Sunday, only locals. One Angolan family took pity on me and took me to the nearest bus station in Torres Novas―Lmaoyz

Most people will head up north, but there are some tourists that go onto the A23. Got picked up by a Venezuelan family traveling around―Lmaoyz

Seems like, in the reverse of everyone else, the spot at the entrance of A1 near Encarnação didn’t work for me after an hour. I walked to the gas station and got a ride in 5 minutes―Lmaoyz

A primeira placa que usei na saída de Lisboa foi Santarém e peguei uma com uns caras que iam até Torres, foi muito boa e estratégica, porque depois deste pedágio usei uma placa indicando pra Leila, e antes desta cidade tem esse excelente posto de gasolina pra pegar pra Porto. Peguei carona com um caminhoneiro ucraniano indo até Figueira da voz, e por mais que eu quisesse conhecer mais Portugal e enrolar um pouco mais, tinha poucos dias até meu voluntariado no congresso universal de esperanto. E minha amiga caroneira Luana estava esperando por mim em Lisboa. Um dia eu volto a Portugal, quem sabe. E o caminhoneiro também me deu uma "coca zero vegana". Bebi. Sorry.―Jurobola

Viajando pro norte de Portugal pela primeiríssima vez, Já vinha do sul e percebi que Portugal é bem melhor que Espanha. Preferi não perguntar muito no posto por ser brasileiro e saber que algumas pessoas têm preconceito e não tenho tempo e energia pra drama. Li bastante aqui os comentários de geral e decidi por este ponto. Funcionou bem. Parou um motorhome com 4 malucos indo prum festival eletrônico em Torres. Me deram frutas gostosas e fizemos muitas piadas, foi top, paizão. E claro, peguei a manha de não aceitar carona pros lugares ruins, Ou, a dizer, boleia.―Jurobola

I had to wait over more than three hours to find a ride to Coimbra. I shouldn't know why it wouldn't work out, but probably everybody goes direction of Fatima. Bad experience and I wouldn't recommend it to anybody―Anonymous

Try to NOT get dropped here if you want to go to Spain. All the people head north to Porto, so in this direction its very easy to find a ride.―Tabea

The "Santarém" service station in the A1 highway is a very busy one, no problems to find a ride here, direction Coimbra, Porto... It's the last gas station before the exit to the A23 highway - so if you're going to SPAIN (Salamanca, Valladolid...), you have to find here someone going to the A23 (nowadays it isn't free anymore, so there's less cars), the first gas station in A23 will be "Abrantes", and you're on your way to Spain!―Ratodoporao

Got a ride to Fundão (on our way to Spain) in 20 minutes. Good to ask, since the road splits after a few km. Good place to camp too. (June 2014)―Ewelinalucy
