A former fishing village that has emerged as one of the most popular holiday destinations in the Algarve, Albufeira is a charming coastal city boasting sweeping sandy beaches and a vibrant nightlife scene.
You have three transportation options when travelling from Faro Airport to Albufeira; taxi, private transfer or bus. Taking a taxi or private transfer is the most convenient choice, as the journey takes just 40 minutes and is door-to-door, ensuring a hassle-free arrival. However, if you’re on a budget, the best choice for you is the Aerobus 56. The service is direct and you’ll pay €8 for a ticket to Albufeira. The bus takes 40 minutes to get to the coastal city, but you’ll probably need to walk or take a taxi from the bus stop in Albufeira, adding time to the total journey duration.
Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to Faro at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.
