Yes, the train from Coimbra to OPO is a good option.
But having to use two forms of transport when there is a "Get Bus" (direct airport bus) between Braga and OPO for €8 which is basically door-to-door for us.
For reference, the car journey time at the 120kph highway speed limit between OPO and Coimbra is 125 mins

By comparison the journey time (by car) between Braga and OPO is 39 mins i.e. less than half. see: https://goo.gl/maps/bN8GFy2UJoq https://goo.gl/maps/bN8GFy2UJoq
Trust me, we have done our homework on this. This was a major deciding factor. We still have a company in London and we need to go there frequently for in-person client meetings.
Otherwise Coimbra would have been a no-brainer.
Our "sister company" has just opened a Student Residence in Coimbra: https://www.studentville.pt/en/cidades/coimbra https://www.studentville.pt/en/cidades/coimbra
We would have benefitted hugely from being there.
Much love to our Coimbra friends! :-)
