No luck today with hitchhiking in Portugal, waited for 3 hours on a Sunday morning until afternoon, which is so far my first that long of a wait ever, and then eventually took a train and then a bus to Faro, as I had a flight next morning from there.―anettlee17

If you walk 10km from Coimbra heading to Porto, just make a big sign and stand clear for the cars, there is a turn after you for cars to stop. Traffic is rather fast ;p―Anonymous

1 direct drive to Porto in 15mn !Cars drive quite slowly, place to park, and a bit of straight between the 2 turns. The only problem they can't see you from far away. Pass away the interdiction for pedestrian people and after 10m be creative to pay attention of drivers.
For me, some huge hello! with my sign Porto and it worked very good. :)

I think it is a good spot for poeople going north (direction Villa Real/ Viseu), even though I was waiting for 1,5h here. To get here go north from the Old Town going by Avenida Fernao de Magalhaes, pass by the train station and bus station, then walk some 5 mins more in the same direction, just following the signs "Viseu". I was standing just after the sign "motorway", on the right side of the road.

There is a bus stop where a car can stop. Worked for us, though not that fast.―Anonymous

We got a ride within 15 minutes heading south towards Lisboa -- to get here you can take the 22 or 14 bus, and get off just after the bridge and roundabout.―Anonymous

We wait around 45min to get a ride to Aveiro, however our goal was Viseu/Guarda.. Is not the best spot, but you can talk with people and some truck drivers in the gas station, maybe you'll have luck...―Anonymous

Third gas station on the way Porto-Lisbon. Around 10 minutes of asking around and we had a direct ride to Lisbon.―Anonymous

Direction Montemor-o-Velho. We tried this place twice and both times got a ride quickly. Lot of space to stop the car, much better than the roundabout slightly to the south from this one, closer to the city center.―Anonymous
