From Faro Airport to your villa
Villas are the hardest places to find on arrival: country lanes, no street numbers, a gate at the end. Tell us how to get there once, and the driver does the rest.
Many Algarve villas are in the hills behind the coast — around Loulé, Almancil, Carvoeiro or Lagos — and are reached by roads that sat-navs struggle with. The booking has room for everything the villa company sent you: the address, the villa’s name, the gate or key-box code and directions for the last stretch. Put them in the notes and they go to the driver with the trip.
Arriving late?
Evening flights are common, and a villa in the dark is harder to find still. With your flight number on the booking we follow the landing, and the driver is there when you come through arrivals — late or not.

Frequently asked questions
Our villa is inside the resort, behind a gate. Can the driver take us to the door?
Yes. Enter the villa’s address or name when you book and add any gate code or access instructions to the notes — they go to the driver with the trip.
We have a lot of luggage. Will it fit?
Enter your luggage when you book. For a family with large suitcases, a pushchair or golf bags, choose a van rather than a car — the booking form only shows vehicles where the whole group fits.
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.
Who provides the transfer?
Every transfer booked on Algarve Private Ride is contracted and provided by About Rides, a private transfer company operating across Portugal. Your booking, payment, cancellation terms and support are with About Rides.
