Portugal is a good country to travel with kids. People likes kids very much! One minus can be that it´s sometimes difficault to pass with the strolley at the streets or there are no elevators. Push chair for twins are not recomended to bring, take two small instead! The good things are that there are speciall family parkings, you can pass quees if you are pregnant or carrying a child and more. One can find baby food in supermarkets or farmacys. In the restaurants it´s easy to find food even for the most picky child (or adult). You do not have to be afraid of sallads ice cream or other things one gets warned to not eat. The tap water is drinkable. Respect warning flags at the beaches.

At the air plane
Ask if your company support with food even for kids, normally you have to bring baby food but for bigger kids they have. Often one has to chek-in the stroller and sometimes they can borrow you one to the gate, ask in the chek-in desk! On the way bak from Portugal you are welcome to bring the stroller all the way to the gate! Do not forget to bring som toys or a laptop that can show movies and keep your child busy for a while.
