Information and maps
You'll find a tourist office, or Turismo , in almost
every town of any size. Aside from the help they can give you in
finding a room, they often have local maps and leaflets. Their
hours are generally daily 9am-8pm. There is also a free
English-speaking tourist help-line (freephone 0800 296 296; daily
9am-midnight). If you're doing any real exploration, or driving,
it's worth investing in a good road map . The best are those
put out by the Automóvel Clube de Portugal, the Spanish Plaza y
Janes, and Michelin #437.
