Plan your trip from Faro Airport
Although Faro airport is relatively small it deals with thousands of French, German and British holiday makers (amongst others) daily.There are buses and other public transport options available from the airport itself but most tend to hire cars or use taxis to get to where they need to go.
The airport is located close to the main city and although small, Faro City is certainly worth a visit.
Once you land you’ll find yourself right on the A22 motorway making it an ideal starting point for your Algarve journey.
