Buying a guidebook in Porto?

[shwiway]

We are currently in the air somewhere over Asia, heading for Porto. We begin our litoral/coastal Camino on Tuesday. We have done so much planning but… I didn’t plan on leaving our guide book at home

We arrive mid-morning on Monday and staying near the cathedral. Does anyone know if we can purchase a Brierley or Cicerone (or similar) guidebook in Porto?

Perhaps in the famous Lello bookshop, it might be busy though

You can always download the Wise Pilgrim app. And do visit the wonderful Livreria Lello, very much worth it!

I do have the Wise Pilgrim app but thought we might need a bit more detail. Perhaps we should just trust the Camino

The Wise Pilgrim app does have quite a bit of detail when you click on each place.

If you meet a fellow pilgrim who does have a guidebook simply ask them if you can take photos of the pages you need from it, which I assume is mainly the maps and the albergue information.
