Faro Airport to Alvor

A fishing village on an estuary, a boardwalk along the dunes and resorts facing the sea — just under an hour west of the airport.

  • From Faro Airportapprox. 55 min
  • Distanceapprox. 72 km
  • MunicipalityPortimão

Alvor is the next village west of Portimão. The old centre, with its whitewashed streets, runs down to the Ria de Alvor; the beach and most of the resorts are a little to the east, along Praia de Alvor and towards the rocks of Três Irmãos. After the motorway the last stretch is on local roads, and the driver drops you at your resort’s entrance with the bags.

Frequently asked questions

Do you have child seats?

Yes. Add them when you book, in the step after choosing the vehicle, with the children’s ages so the right seat goes in the car.

What if my flight is late?

Add your flight number when you book and we follow the landing. If the plane is late, the driver waits for it — a delay does not cost you the transfer.

Can you take us back to the airport at the end of the holiday?

Yes — book a return to Faro Airport on the same booking and choose the pickup time at your resort. Leave enough time for check-in and security; the earlier the flight, the quieter the road.
