Algarve2u

Planning a holiday in the Algarve always begins with the excitement of discovering the famous golden sand beaches, hidden coves, and authentic Portuguese gastronomy.

​However, any experienced traveler knows that the tone of the entire holiday is largely set by the very first hour spent on Portuguese soil. Instead of wasting precious time in long queues for car rentals or looking for last-minute solutions in front of the terminal, you can start your journey in peace, benefiting from a 10% discount on all Faro Airport Transfers.

​This promotion is designed to bring extra comfort and accessibility to any stay, providing private transport services of the highest standard, at fair and transparent rates.

Why a private transfer remains the ideal solution upon arrival in Faro

Faro International Airport is the central transport hub for the entire southern region of Portugal. During holiday periods, the large influx of tourists often makes public transport crowded, rigid in terms of schedule, and quite inconvenient if you have bulky luggage or are traveling with loved ones.

Choosing a specialized Faro airport transfers service simplifies the entire arrival experience:

  • Meet & Greet straight in the terminal: A dedicated driver awaits you at the exit of the baggage reclaim area, holding a sign with your name on it, so you don’t waste any time looking for the car.
  • Automatic flight monitoring: Even if your flight is delayed or lands early, the pickup schedule is automatically adjusted, without any extra costs.
  • Direct, door-to-door journey: No intermediate stops, no idle time, and no detours through other resorts. You arrive straight at the door of your accommodation.
  • Fixed prices, no surprises: You know the final rate from the booking stage, with no fluctuations caused by heavy traffic or night surcharges.

How to benefit from the offer: 10% discount on all Faro Airport Transfers

Accessing this discount is very easy, directly on the booking platform, and it applies to any destination in the region, whether for a one-way trip or round-trip packages:

  1. Enter your flight details: Specify the date of arrival, flight number, and the exact address of the hotel or villa where you are staying.
  2. Choose the right vehicle: Depending on the size of your group, you can opt for a spacious executive car or a comfortable minivan with a generous capacity.
  3. Confirm via email: You will immediately receive all the details of your booking and direct contact info for customer support.

Spacious minivans: Ultimate comfort for families and groups

For those traveling with family, friends, or special luggage (such as equipment for the golf courses in Vilamoura or Vale do Lobo), generous space in the car is essential:

  • Capacity of up to 8 seats: Each passenger enjoys ample legroom and a comfortable position throughout the journey.
  • Extremely spacious trunk: Suitable for multiple large suitcases, strollers, and bulky sports bags.
  • Independently adjustable climate control: Maintains a cool and pleasant atmosphere, regardless of the heat outside.
  • Child safety features: On request, vehicles are equipped free of charge with approved car seats and boosters complying with road regulations.

Our drivers are professionals with extensive experience on the roads of southern Portugal—polite, fluent in English, and always ready to offer useful local tips to make your holiday as successful as possible.

Fast connections to the main destinations in the Algarve
Regardless of the resort you have chosen, a private transfer ensures a quick and safe journey across the region’s road network:

  • Albufeira: The vibrant tourist heart of the coast, about 35–40 minutes away.
  • Vilamoura & Quarteira: The cosmopolitan destination of marinas and golf courses, reachable in about 25 minutes.
  • Lagos & Praia da Luz: The spectacular western area, with impressive cliffs and unique landscapes, under an hour’s drive away.
  • Carvoeiro & Ferragudo: Picturesque settlements full of traditional charm, located about 45 minutes away.
  • Tavira & the eastern coast: A quiet area, appreciated for its historical architecture and authentic atmosphere.

Planning your summer trip to Lagos – Part 2

Planning your summer trip to Lagos

Planning your summer trip to Lagos is not a trifling thing. Last time, we spoke of a few reasons why you should really consider visiting. Today, let’s sit back and visit the top destinations in this beautiful Portuguese seaside resort.

Located 90 kilometers from Faro, the capital city of the Algarve, Lagos is – and has been for some time - one of the top seaside resorts in the country. It’s also quite accessible, even if you are not traveling by car, because you can employ Faro Airport transfers to take you there and back.

One of the reasons people come to Lagos is the spectacular coastline. Lagos contains some of the best beaches in the Algarve. With its fantastic rocks and fine sand, the flowers covering the edge of the cliff and the cerulean ocean below, Praia de Dona Ana is our favorite beach.

Another beautiful beach just behind the Lagos Marina (which is a site you should definitely never miss) is Meia Praia. Its name might mean “half a beach”, but actually this is the longest beach in the area and provides a lot of excellent sand and water-sports facilities.

History comes to life at Forte Ponta da Bandeira, a 17th-century fortress built to defend the harbor of Lagos. (You might have guessed this: Lagos has had a long history as a seaside port). The remains of the fort can be visited, along with an 18th-century small chapel covered in azulejos, where there’s also an exhibit that celebrates the Portuguese golden age of discoveries.

If you want a fun day out for you and the kids, you can always opt for the Lagos Zoo. for just 10-14 EUR, you can visit a beautiful park that’s home to a true family of exotic animals. Plus there’s a restaurant there that provides traditional food.

What do you think about Lagos so far?
