The tramway (http://www.metrodoporto.pt/) takes about 25 min to arrive at station Casa da Música, signalized in the map below, and not faraway (about 15 min by walk) from almost all hotels signalized in the map. All tramways leaving the airport go to station Casa da Música, but when returning to the airport, be careful to choose the one with direction Aeroporto.
