I'm planning on leaving London on Easter Monday or the day after - Tuesday 19 April - and need to be in Pinhal Novo, south of Lisbon by Friday 22 April.
In the past I would have used the sleeper between Irun and Lisbon but that is alas no longer running.
I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on a possible interesting route that is reasonably priced - I'm over 60 so might qualify for some discounted travel.
I don't mind long interchanges and am even happy with some not-too-long coach sections. Also happy to take boats rather than necessarily the Eurostar.
What I'm not keen on however is travelling when it's dark (unless it's in a sleeper train or asleep on a boat).
I'd welcome any thoughts!
